PGA Tour pros need a host of skills and tools to get the job done at major tournaments but few grab the headlines like longest hitters and driver selection.
Here we take a look at what the PGA Tour's long hitters are using.
10. Max Greyserman: 312.2 yards
Max Greyserman uses the Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond Max with a Fujikura Ventus TR Black 6 X machine. The Ai Smoke TD MAX is an advanced tour model that combines the advantages of the MAX construction with the performance and control of the Triple Diamond design.
Driver: Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond Max (9 degrees)
Shaft: Fujikura Ventus TR Black 6 X
Holding: Golf Pride Z-Grip Cord
9. Alejandro Tosti: 312.3 yards
Alejandro Tosti uses a Srixon ZX5 Mk II LS driver from the tee. The Srixon ZX5 LS Mk II is a golf driver that builds on the success of its predecessor, the Srixon ZX5. The new version has several enhancements aimed at improving distance, accuracy, and forgiveness, making it an excellent choice for golfers looking to take their game to the next level.
Driver: Srixon ZX5 Mk II LS (9.5 degrees @10.5)
Shaft: Project X HZRDUS T1100 75 6.5
Holding: Pride of Golf MCC Plus4
8. Taylor Pendrith: 312.5 yards
Taylor Pendrith can hit long range bombs with his Ping G430 LST. If you generate high clubhead speed and rely on a more penetrating route, the 440cc LST accelerates ball speed with reduced spin, the key contributors being the new Carbonfly Wrap and the new optimized face.
Driver: Ping G430 LST (9 degrees)
Shaft: Accra TZ Six ST
Holding: Golf Pride MCC
7. Chris Gotterup: 313.8 yards
Chris Gotterup uses the TaylorMade SIM2 driver. The SIM2 driver is a modern all-round stick, with exceptional distance and feel while also offering a good amount of forgiveness and adjustability.
Driver: TaylorMade SIM2 (9 degrees @7.5)
Shaft: Project X HZRDUS Black Smoke RDX 70 TX
Holding: Golf Pride Z-Grip Cord
6. Wyndham Clark: 314.5 yards
Wyndham Clark hits the road with his Titleist TSR3 equipped with a Project X HZRDUS Smoke Green 60 6.5 TX shaft. If you have a site with consistent impact, the Titleist TSR3 is your passport to high driving performance. The variable Speed Ring Face Technology produces a fixed point of pure speed that can be precisely adjusted to meet your contact point.
Driver: Titleist TSR3 (9 degrees, D1 SureFit setting)
Shaft: Project X HZRDUS Smoke Green 60 6.5 TX (45 inches)
Holding: Golf Pride Tour Velvet Cord
5. Min Woo Lee: 315.0 yards
Min Woo Lee is close to perfecting the Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond S off the tee. The Paradym Triple Diamond Driver is a compact, 450cc shape designed for better players who want to use the ball. It is the lowest spinning and lowest launching Paradym model with a medium ball flight.
Driver: Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond S (10.5 degrees @9.5)
Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Blue 6 X
Holding: Grip Master
4. Kevin Dougherty: 316.8 yards
Kevin Dougherty uses the TaylorMade Qi10 with his LS version or low-spin variant. The Qi10 LS delivers low spin and low launch designed to improve performance for fast swing speed players. With a deeper face and a more compact head shape, it is the driver of choice for several Team TaylorMade Tour athletes.
Driver: TaylorMade Qi10 LS
Shaft: Project X HZRDUS Green Smoke RDX 70 6.5
Holding: Golf Pride Tour Velvet
3. Byeong Hun An: 317.1 yards
Byeong Hun An hits the ball a mile, not exactly, but the Titleist TSR4 is his weapon of choice. If excessive spin is the enemy, the Titleist TSR4 is the answer. It offers two different spin-reduction settings, improved aerodynamics and our new Multi-Plateau VFT face design – all housed in a compact, player-selectable 430cc.
Driver: Titleist TSR4 (9 degrees)
Shaft: Fujikura Motor X F1 6 X
Holding: Lamkin Tx
2. Rory McIlroy: 320.2 yards
Rory McIlroy also uses the TaylorMade Qi10 but prefers a regular rebound. Wrapped in a clean and confident package, the Qi10 driver is expertly designed to help players improve distance and improve forgiveness.
Driver: TaylorMade Qi10 (9 degrees @8.25)
Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Black 6 X (45 inches)
Holding: Golf Pride MCC
1. Cameron Champ: 320.7 yards
Long tour driver using Ping G430 LST remote. If you generate high clubhead speed like the Champ and rely on a more penetrating trajectory, the 440cc LST accelerates ball speed with reduced spin. The important contributors to what goes down in the spin are the new Carbonfly Wrap and the new prepared face that includes Spinsistency, which combines long drives with a pleasant feeling of impact.
Driver: Ping G430 LST (10.5 degrees @10)
Shaft: Mitsubishi 1K Red 60 TX (1 inch lowered)
Holding: Golf Pride Tour Velvet
