A nice mixed bag that he plays well.
They said he had to have his driver head replaced this week?

THREE majors for Mizuno.

No dollars paid.

3...this season? I don't think Molinari and Reed play Mizuno, do they?

Koepka has won 3 majors with Mizuno irons an in the bag. 2 US Open wins and now the PGA. Not all this season.

Bingo.

THREE majors with the JPX 900's, with zero payola.

Ah, I was thinking this year, not just Brooks' 3 wins. I know a few other Nike guys have Mizunos in the bag too.

Yup, he cracked one and got a new one.

Yet Mizuno has discontinued the JPX 900 product line. Seemss to me like Mizuno should have koepka'd that model line going

So a clean sweep this year. 4 Majors won by guys not under OEM contracts.

Interesting, I thought I saw him with a GAPR in hand, but I guess that was the Nike Vapro Pro 3i. Dude is having a hell of a season!

It’s the normal release cycle. The 919s are pretty similar, look better imo and are more forgiving. You don’t see callaway having guys win with apex pros, then keep making apex pros when the epic came out. Or TM seeing guys win the P790s then deciding to not release the M3/M4. Just a product lifecycle

Yes, I know companies are inclined to do 18 month or 2 year product model cycles. But I'm not sure it makes good business sense.
Ping, for example, had a solid 10 year run with its Eye 2 model irons. Through those years Tour pros kept the Eye 2's in their bags, amateurs played them, people saw them, people bought them etc...and the Eye 2 model became an iconic classic within the world of golf. From a business perspective, I think there may be some merit to longer product life cycles.
I am interested now to see if Koepka sticks with the JPX 900 Tour model irons or if he takes money from another company to play their irons.

He’s already having Mizuno make him a set of the 919, as is Patrick Reed.

Man I've been sleeping or something. Never heard of 919 . I thought the 918 line was Mizuno's latest.

He's not going to sign anywhere til his nike contract his up. He's able to play whatever he wants and still get paid by nike.

That button back oh my how I want one.

Nike 3i is interesting

Hahahaha, I see what you did there, and I like it!

I think it's pushed their momentum though, hell around here which is NOT mizuno country people are even talking. If the new models go into play for them, then they're definitely onto something.

When will they be able to make mine? Anxiously waiting the new release!

 

[PKorf]

The more he plays....the more I love his demeanor and game. Happy for him

Talk of potential new one coming. Price of current ones oh there just went up again. I traded mine for a discount on a super rat.

I’ll keep a look out for the new ones. I’ve looked around and a legit button back are fetching some serious coin.
