K2_2 Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) I just caught the news that Ryo Ishikawa became the youngest winner on the Japan PGA at 15!!! Congratulations are in order for this young man. He's also the first amateur to win on the JPGA since... Masahiro Kuramoto back in 1980. Now, can anyone figure out what's in his bag?

K2_2 Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 T, I just wanted to throw up some exciting news from Japan, I didn't expect anyone to have an article on his equipment... you are second to none! Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 He appears to be a Titleist man/boy but he's still an amateur so they are not talking about his gear much... I will keep digging... they are all just talking about his 300 yard drives at 15 years old... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goshinboku Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) ok guys, not gonna be the biggest help, but i found something in Golf Style Vol. 28 September 2006 now I can usually decipher the clubs and specs by looking at them and just knowing the brands, but his are tough as I have never heard or seen of them before, now with this being over 6 months old as well he could have very well switched but this is what he had in the bag i assume at the Japan amateur the only thing written on the soles of the Driver, 16* wood and 19* wood is SOLID CONTACT driver specs: 44.75" fuji 70C S-Flex 9.5* D1 16* and 19* fuji 70C S-flex the irons i have never seen before they are a forged cb, that would most resemble a tourstage nb-32, however they are definately NOT any of the big japan manufacturs they are 3-PW with the 5 iron at 37.5" D1 graphite shafted i believe 90 S-Flex 52* wedge is a stock vokey black nickel 58* wedge is a stock vokey oil can Putter is a scotty cameron studio style newport 2 Ball is the pro V1x *now judging by the wedges,putter and ball, titleist very well have give him irons and woods as someone mentioned he maybe all titleist. sorry i couldnt do any better, they are clubs i have never seen before which doesnt happen too often as i can usually decipher most if not all Edited May 20, 2007 by tourstage_bape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K2_2 Posted May 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 Hi Tourstage_Bape, No need to apologize, and thanks for taking the time to dig all of that out! Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedyH Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 His driver and putter he used to win the KSB Tournament were from Solid Contacts. They are a small company located in Tokyo. Just checked there website and obviously no reference to Ryo as he is still an amateur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. 67 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Any chance Gocchin or TourSpecGolfer could get one of the 2 iron prototype irons/hybrid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 That would be really hard to get. It's from Solid Contacts, I don't think Ryo is playing that anymore and I'd have to see if it even went reatail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
