More Golf launching full line of modular clubs

Published

5 years ago

Feb 3, 2021

It was roughly five years ago that Bruce Sizemore unveiled the More wedge—a prototype design that was radically untraditional and uncompromising.

Today, Sizemore’s More Golf is announcing its first full release with the introduction of the MOD-1 irons, wedges, and putters to be available this spring.

“Every so often, a new idea comes around and totally changes the face of an industry. That’s what I believe a fully modular construction can do with golf clubs. We’ve reimagined the future of custom club fitting and what it means to be fully optimized as a golfer.” – Bruce Sizemore

Designed and built in the USA

More Golf is based in Jackson, Michigan, and the MOD-1 series of irons, wedges, and putters were developed in close partnership with Lomar Machine and Tools, a Jackson-area manufacturer that does work in aerospace, automotive, medical, and military fields. This gives More Golf, which is located only minutes from Lomar, a unique advantage when it comes to overseeing control of the manufacturing process.

The partnership with Lomar also puts More Golf in the position of achieving its long-term goal of being the only 100-percent American-made 14-club company.

Modular construction

The Mod-1 irons and wedges are fully modular meaning that each piece can be interchanged to create the perfect club for the intended golfer. According to More golf, the unique design attributes offer some distinct advantages:

Weight savings – The modular construction removes 50 grams of weight from the hosel of the irons and wedges and adds it into the clubhead where it belongs to stabilize the head.
Unique hosel position – By positioning the hosel up and in on the face, designers can move the shaft axis closer to the center of the clubhead for extra stability and improved turf interaction.
Adjustable rear flange – The MOD-1 irons have what More golf calls a “dynamic flange design” intended to create versatility from any lie. The hosel-free leading edge and unique sole contouring helps achieve better contact regardless of the lie. At introduction the MOD-1 irons will be available with two distinct flange options; narrow and wide, with more to be available in the future.

Pricing and Availability

The date for release has not yet been fully finalized with More Golf beyond the launch information of Spring 2021.

The initial release of the MOD-1 Series will be in limited quantities and pricing starts at $427 per iron and wedge and $447 for the Mod-1 Putters. For more information check out Moregolf.com

The problem is mechanical connections come loose. You’re taking that thing with all those doodads attached and then moving it 80 or 90 mph until it smashes into an object, and you’re doing it again and again. Those bolts are coming loose. Golfers will have their clubs ratting and have to carry an allen wrench around everywhere or they won’t perform properly. Then those pieces will occasionally go flying off. You’ll shoot your eye out. As a lawyer of many years, be sure to load up on insurance, because products liability in the U.S. is strict as well as joint-and-several. I, for one, would advise any supplier and retailer who I had as a client that they shouldn’t do business with you. Of course, it will be a boon for the plaintiff’s bar if these ever do reach the market to any significant degree, so there’s that.

That sure looks like a lot of offset for a wedge. Ugly designs all around.

This idea isn’t what golfers want or need. It’s a lego/tinker toy for kids getting into the game.

I thought Cleveland already had the patent for the ugliest clubs ever with the VAS irons?

I mean how does a group of people get together, look at these and think “hey I think we have something special here, let’s invest all of our savings”

I think modular is a cool idea, I can definitely see the advantages. It’s already popular in woods and starting to come into putters more and more. Irons and wedges not so much. The hosel on these is very “Cleveland VAS” which I know some people swear by, although it’s a little challenging to look at.

Anyway the machining work is incredible. I’m sure they are expensive to make. Not sure about the prices though. I’m glad he’s doing this and I think it’s a cool venture. But $3k for a set of irons, I don’t know.

This is exactly what we need. Another wildly expensive golf club. Such a novel concept. I have no interest in these what so ever. I don’t care how good they are. At that price it’s almost a joke.

  Daniel,
  
  We hope you do try them! Because they’re modular, you’ll be able to replace the club piece by piece instead of having to start over every time.

yes, this is ugly but i believe this is the way to go for all golf equipment moving forward. the truth is that not all golfers have access to accurate specs and fittings.

being able to modify your grind, bounce, hosel and weight will take golf fitting to whole another level.

It is going to take a new generation of golfers to accept and adopt this form of equipment. The premise is mostly valid as we have seen the acceptance and validation of adjustable wood/metals. Cost is prohibitive for most of us, but look at PXG success. Fitting will be interesting and I would think an aftermarket of mods will grow out of it if successful.

  PXG’s success is an illusion. People don’t want to pay that much for clubs which is why they are trying to pivot into the cheaper 0211 line. They will quickly realize their is no profit there which is why Taylormade is up for sale AGAIN. The old saying is if you want to make a billionaire a millionaire just sell them a golf company. It’s an unpopular opinion but PXG will be gone by 2025. Parson’s, regardless of how much money he has, can only operate at a loss for so long before he rips the cord.

  Thanks for the feedback, Tim. Getting a proper fit initially is hugely important, but so is making modifications over time that make sense for a golfer’s game and their course conditions. That’s why we believe that modular golf clubs are the future.

Then and now: Comparing Rory McIlroy’s current setup to his record-breaking 2019 Canadian Open victory

Published

2 hours ago

Jun 11, 2026

Alistair Cameron

In Rory McIlroy’s first appearance at the 2019 RBC Canadian Open, he crushed the record books to earn his 16th PGA Tour title in dominating fashion, winning by seven shots over Shane Lowry and Webb Simpson.

McIlroy’s score of 22-under-par 258 is the lowest 72-hole score to date at the Canadian Open, and his closing 61 is also the best final-round score in the history of one of golf’s oldest tournaments. Finally, with his win in 2019, McIlroy became only the sixth player to win the career Triple Crown, adding to his victories at the U.S. Open in 2011 and The Open Championship in 2014, joining Tommy Armour, Walter Hagen, Arnold Palmer, Lee Trevino and Tiger Woods in a coveted list.

So, with that, why not compare his current setup to the clubs he used to break all the records?

Driver

2019: TaylorMade M5 (9 degrees), Shaft: Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 70 TX
2026: TaylorMade Qi4D (9 degrees @8), Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Black 7X (45 5/8 inches)

McIroy led the Tour in Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee in 2019; he’s doing the same in 2026. Between now and then, McIlroy has switched from the Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 70 TX (a shaft with slightly more feeling in the tip) to the original Fujikura Ventus Black 7X, having just made the change to the heavier version from playing the 60X.

What’s interesting about McIlroy’s 2019 setup is that the weighting on his driver is actually set in the high-draw setting, using the T-Track weighting system, whereas in the Qi4D, he’s currently using a heavily rear-weighted setup. (Two 13-gram weights in the rear and only two 4-gram front weights.)

The TaylorMade M5 driver he played in during his Canadian Open win was the company’s first head that they claimed to design to initially exceed the USGA’s COR limit, and then injected with tuning resin to bring it back in bounds.

Fairway woods

2019: TaylorMade M6 3-wood (15 degrees), Shaft: Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 80 TX; TaylorMade M5 5-wood (19 degrees), Shaft: Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 90 TX
2026: TaylorMade Qi4D 3-wood (15 degrees), Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Black 8X; TaylorMade Qi4D 5-wood (18 degrees), Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Black 9X

The TaylorMade M6 fairway wood that McIlroy was using during the 2019 season is still in the bag of some of the best golfers on Tour in 2026. Just check out Justin Rose’s winning setup from the Farmers Insurance Open earlier this year. This year, though, McIlroy has still been searching for his top-end-of-the-bag setup, having played both the new Qi4D and the Qi10, which he won the Masters with.

The same shaft swap can be seen in the fairway woods as the driver, along with slightly less loft on the 5-wood.

Irons

2019: TaylorMade P750 (4) Buy here, TaylorMade P730 (5-9), Shafts: Project X 7.0
2026: TaylorMade P760 (4), TaylorMade Rors Proto (5-9), Shafts: Project X 7.0

The biggest difference between McIlroy’s custom set and the stock P730s is the groove design. While the P730s were constructed with 14 MX-9 grooves on their milled faces, McIlroy’s proto heads instead use the higher-spinning, 16-groove layout of the TW2 grooves. Other big differences between the sets are that McIlroy’s 7- and 8-irons have thinner toplines, are 1 degree stronger in loft, and are 1/4 inch longer than the original P730 builds.

With McIlroy’s 4-iron, the switch from P750 to P760 sees a transition to a two-piece construction with Speed Foam in it, which allows McIlroy to launch the ball slightly higher, with more workability.

Wedges

2019: TaylorMade Milled Grind (48-09SB), TaylorMade MG Hi-Toe (52-09SB, 56-09SB, 60-LB09), Shafts: Project X Rifle 6.5
2026: TaylorMade MG5 (46-09SB, 50-09SB, 54-11SB, 60-08LB @61), Shafts: Project X 6.5 (46-54), Project X 6.5 Wedge (60)

Between 2019 and 2026, McIlroy’s focus on his short game has been much more apparent. It was the reason why he switched back to the TP5 golf ball, to help with launch, spin and control with his wedges leading up to his career Grand Slam victory in 2025. The most apparent changes to McIlroy’s wedge setup are his lofts and bounce. He’s slowly delofted his pitching to a sand wedge, but has increased the loft on the lob wedge, bending his current 60-degree to 61. With that, adding more loft to his lob wedge also slightly increases the bounce and leading-edge sit point, so, as a result, he plays a lower-bounce lob wedge compared to 2019. The MG5 wedges are also softer than the first Milled Grind option from 2019. McIlroy also no longer plays the full-face grooves found on the Hi-Toe.

Putter

2019: TaylorMade Spider X
2026: TaylorMade Spider Tour X

Notice anything similar. Yes, the copper finish on Rory McIlroy’s Spider X putter in 2019 is a slightly more reflective finish than the recently released torched PVD finish. McIlroy was using the True Path alignment system, but now uses only a single white sightline.

Ball

2019: 2019 TaylorMade TP5 (#22)
2026: 2025 TaylorMade TP5 (RORS)

As mentioned above, McIlroy had transitioned from the TP5 to TP5x golf ball since his victory in Canada in 2019, but now is black with the same style of golf ball as his victory at Hamilton Golf & Country Club.

Grips

2019: Golf Pride Tour Velvet Cord
2026: Golf Pride MCC

Interesting, McIlroy actually used Golf Pride’s Tour Velvet Cord grips during his victory in 2019 (it was during a 2+ year switch to the corded TV) as opposed to his usual MCC grips, which he has played for most of his career.
