J.J. Spaun's Driver

Spaun plays with a Ping G425 LST driver fitted with a Fujikura Ventus Black 6X shaft and set at a 9-degree loft angle. As per Golf Monthly, the G425 LST was launched in 2022 and is one of the most forgiving low-spin clubs. Further, it helps golfers to shoot the ball in a certain way, depending on preference, though.

J.J. Spaun's Fairways

Spaun uses two fairways, a three-wood TaylorMade SIM, and a five-wood Callaway Mavrik Sub Zero. The former is set at 15 degrees, while the latter is at 18 degrees. Their shafts vary too; the three-wood has a Mitsubishi Tensei Orange 70TX shaft, while the five-wood has a Mitsubishi Diamana BF 80TX.

The TaylorMade SIM is not a huge improvement over the TaylorMade M5 or M6 models, according to Golf Monthly, but it does have the benefit of ball speed without compromising accuracy.

The Callaway Mavrik Sub Zero is one of the Editor's Choice 2020 of the Golf Monthly. The overall distance is much greater on the fairway because the spin rate is lower and the flight is more constant. It also features Jailbreak technology, which makes sure to get the most out of every stroke, even ones that are taken from a little lower angle.

J.J. Spaun's Irons

Spaun has two Srixon irons, a Z-U65 and ZX7, both fitted with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shaft. The Z-U65, which was introduced in 2016, has a Power Wave Sole that improves forgiveness and launch angle. To create a larger sweet spot, a Stretch Flex Cup Face has also been incorporated, stretching wider around the crown and sole. The Srixon ZX7 irons are a great choice for golfers looking for a soft-feeling iron that provides more distance because they are very playable throughout the set (via Golf Monthly).

J.J. Spaun's Wedges

Spaun uses three Cleveland RTX ZipCore, all fitted with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts, but at different loft angles of 50, 54, and 60 degrees. According to Golf Monthly, it has a muscle-back design and is primarily intended for lower handicappers. As a result, it provides the softest feel, while the CG's relocation keeps it feeling sturdy and firm. However, some golfers may prefer the leading edge to be straighter.

J.J. Spaun's Putter

Spaun plays with the infamous Scotty Cameron Prototype putter, as per the PGA Tour.

J.J. Spaun's Golf Ball

Spaun plays with the Srixon Z-Star Diamond golf ball. In the skilled hands, it performs exceptionally well. However, not many players will be able to make full use of the technology because it is a three-piece ball with a compression of 102 and a slightly thicker 0.6mm cover. It is meant to give golfers with swing speeds of 90+ mph a mid-high launch. Therefore, faster swingers are the best fit for it (via Golf Monthly).
