I think he plays with irons and wedges from an indian company, 3 letters, can't remember them sorrry. Not a well known brand here in Europe or in the US.
he is sponsored by GMA
GMA is a high end (also very expensive) golf gear company in Japan.
Try is once ...nice but way too much deco on those sticks...Royal Staris the name for the irons...
the rep. told me that some of customized sticks even have crystal deco on them...very funky looking

GMA irons and a Ping Zing sand wedge.
He was using an old Bubble-shafted Taylor Made fairway wood (with the Asian-released head) too.

I took some great pics of him at the memorial this year.
Golf World (UK) ran a WITB in this months' issue.
No decent pics, sadly, but the narrative is quite good:
Driver: 'It's a Callaway FT-3. It says 8.5 degrees loft on the top but actually it's now just 5.8 degrees. I had it bent back and now it's one of the lowest lofts on Tour. I had to change my swing because I damaged my wrist in 2000 and now it helps me to have less loft. I open the clubface at impact which adds loft.'
2 Wood: 'Even I'm not sure what you'd call this; it used to be a Taylor Made driver, but now it's more of a 2 wood. I've had it since '94. It says V921 and it has one of those Bubble shafts. It has 9 degrees of loft and I've added some lead tape to the head. It's an old favorite.I usually use it off the deck with a left-to-right cut.'
3 Wood: 'A 3+ Callaway. I hit this off the tee rather than my 2 wood. It goes out there about 260 yards, while the 2 wood is a bit longer. 275-280.'
Irons: 'Custom made with my name on by a company called GMA. I liked the heads so I had a set made up. Standard lie with two degrees less loft, 3-PW'
Wedges: 'I have a couple of Ping Zing sand wedges at 54 degrees and a lob wedge at 58.'
Putter: 'It's a Scotty Cameron. I picked it up this year and have no idea what model it is. It's new.'
Ball is a Titleist Pro V1x.
