Billy Horschel What's In The Bag?

What does the American carry in his bag every week on Tour? We take a look below. Horschel was previously signed with PXG, however this is no longer the case because of the sheer mix-and-match nature of his golf equipment setup right now. That being said most of his setup at the moment is filled with Titleist clubs so let's get to the specifics.

Driver

At the top of the bag he carries a Titleist TSR3 driver and it has nine degrees of loft. It is also fitted with a Fujikura Ventus TR Black 6X shaft. In our testing we felt the TSR3 was a premium looking and performing driver that is likely to outperform your gamer, especially if you go through a custom fitting. The feel is powerful and it strikes the ideal balance of control with competitive ball speed and distance.

The five-position SureFit CG track carries over from the TSi3 but it has been neatened up so the weight sits more flush in the extreme positions and it is quicker to adjust thanks to a shorter screw thread.

Fairways

He then has a couple of TSi2 fairway woods. which have 15 and 18 degrees of loft respectively, although he sometimes rotates out the 18 degree in favour of a 3 iron. They are both fitted with Project X HZURDUS Smoke Black shafts. It is interesting Horschel opts for the TSi2 and not the TSR fairway woods although we would guess this is because of the extra forgiveness on offer. The fairway wood slot is one of the most difficult parts of the bag to get right and as such we don't expect Horschel to change any time soon given his success with this setup. 

Irons

Moving on to the irons, and Horschel carries a combo set of Titleist irons, going from the T100 in his 3-5 iron, into the 620 CBs from 6-9 iron, replacing the set of Ping Blueprints that were in his bag for a while. 

Historically, Horschel has done some strange things to achieve his preferred look in his iron set. He has always wanted stronger lofts, but did not like the look of the additional offset that occurs when bending irons strong. As such, Titleist have previously bent clubs 2˚ weak for Horschel and then subsequently ground off the sole number before stamping a new number on. So his 8 iron for example was a 7 iron head, bent 2˚ weak to add onset, and as such played 2˚ stronger than a standard 8 iron! Are you keeping up?!

Wedges

He then has four Titleist Vokey SM10 wedges with 46, 52, 56 and 60 degrees of loft respectively. The SM10 was another Titleist club that got five stars in our review which is no surprise given how many top professionals use the model, regardless of whether they are contracted by Titleist or not. It is a top-quality wedge because of the high levels of consistent spin, great feel and bags of versatility thanks to the 23 loft and bounce options that are available across the six different sole grinds.

Putter

Finally he uses a Ping PLD Anser putter in a tour only raw finish. The rusty putter look seems to be becoming more fashionable of late, with Viktor Hovland also using a raw finish from Ping. 

Ball

Horschel uses the Titleist Pro V1 golf ball and has done for some time. One of the best golf balls money can buy, the Pro V1 got five stars in our review and it is easy to see why. It provides superb all-round performance with impressive distance in the long game, excellent control into the greens and high levels of consistency throughout with a soft feel. It was also particularly impressive when playing in the wind.
