Whats in the Bag
Adam Scott’s winning WITB: 2020 Genesis Invitational
Driver: Titleist TS4 (10.5 degrees, A1 SureFit setting, 2-gram weight)
Shaft: Mitsubishi Kuro Kage XTS 80 X
- Scott put the Kuro Kage in play this week. Per Titleist’s J.J. VanWezenbeeck, “Adam Scott switched to the TS4 driver at the ZoZo Championship due to head size, shape, and improved launch to spin ratios. This week, after discussions with Adam, he went to a shaft he had previously played for increased stability. He felt the shaft went a little far and he lost head feel. We went on course with lead tape to get the feels to match up then weighted the head to preferred swing weight after testing.”

Rory McIlroy’s victory at the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship 2021 (now the Truist Championship) marked a significant return to form, as he captured his 19th PGA Tour title. After starting the tournament slowly and sitting well off the pace early, McIlroy surged back into contention with strong weekend play, ultimately closing with a final-round 68 to finish at 10-under par.

As previously mentioned, he uses the 2015-2016 Pro V1. Great ball. Great feel. No wonder his driver spin is up, but I understand why. He’s oldschool. He hits flat bullets that hang in the air downrange whereas the typical low spin flight today is this ugly arching moonball. The 2017 and 2019 Pro V1’s keep cutting back on the spin which isn’t a good idea with a low trajectory ball.

Great bag there Scotty.

Anyone know what Scotts driver angle of attack is? His ball speed was in the high 170s all week (faster than Rory on several occasions) but he was consistently 20 yards behind Rory. In 2019 he was #1 in driver spin rate at 3400 RPM (horrendous). I suspect his angle of attack is -4 or so.

Two putters? A scotty and a L.A.B. Golf B.2 – was he using one to lag with? I didn’t get a chance to tune in to see any of it.

The 52 deg wedge says 12 F and not 8 F.

TS4 is the best driver I’ve hit. Russell Henley has it in the bag along with Max Homa. 460 drivers are overrated

Greg…never too late to improve your craft…get courageous and take some iron face shots. If it’s a bandwidth issue…you can leave out the sweet pics of the grips (cuz those are awesome).. I have faith in ya!

I like a face shot as much as the next man: but, as this is a ‘what is in the bag’ feature and not a ‘witb and let us see how consistent is your strike’ feature, I can understand why the faces are not photographed.

Not just any Pro V1. The 2015 Pro V1. Best ball ever.
