Russell Knox's Bag

Russell Knox’s Driver

Knox uses a Ping G425 LST driver with a Graphite Design Tour AD GP 6 X shaft that has been set to 10.5 degrees.

Players who swing quickly will benefit from the LST model's pear-shaped, 445-cc head, which significantly reduces spin.

Face flexing is accelerated for more distance with a patented T9S+-forged face. To adapt your swing and desired ball flight, the head uses a 17-gram CG shifter with draw, neutral, and fade settings. accessible at 10.5 degrees and 9 degrees.

Russell Knox’s Fairways

Knox uses a TaylorMade SIM2 fairway adjusted at 15 degrees with a Mitsbushi Kai’Li Blue 70 TX shaft.

The golf club with the most distance and forgiveness is the TaylorMade SIM2 fairway wood. The reviewers give the club high marks for its elegant appearance, driver-like feel, strong flight, and loft adjustment. The club is also contrasted with the SIM2 Max model, which has a bigger head and a faster spin rate, by the reviewer.

After considering the greater launch conditions and adaptability of the SIM2 fairway wood, the reviewers’ conclusion is that it is somewhat their favorite among TaylorMade's fairway wood selections.

The critic also points out some of the club's shortcomings, like how expensive it is and how the lie angle cannot be adjusted.

Russell Knox’s Hybrid

Knox's hybrid is a Ping G410 with a 19-degree-adjustable Graphite Design Tour AD DI 85 X shaft.

Using more loft and lie combinations, our first-ever adjustable hybrid lets you improve outcomes every time by giving you eight distinct options for ball flight.

One can hit more greens while carrying problems because of the maraging-steel face's thinner and more flexible design, which also produces better ball speeds and launches. In addition to adding stability, a wider profile helps raise the Moment of Inertia (MOI) from heel to toe.

Russell Knox’s Irons

Knox uses Srixon Z785 irons with a True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shaft.

Critics say it's designed for those with low handicaps who want control. The Z 785 places bulk behind the sweet spot to maximize workability. The blade-like irons also feature a Tour V.T. dual-bounce sole design for clean hits from all lies, along with laser-milled grooves.

Russell Knox’s Wedges

Knox uses three wedges of 50, 54, and 58 degrees of Cleveland RTZ ZipCore with a True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shaft on all.

Cleveland's larger (almost twice as large) ZipCore component of their popular RTX ZipCore line-up allows weight to be transferred to other areas to increase forgiveness, especially in the high-low direction. To maximize spin, especially on shots with moisture on the ball or from the rough, a new finish is combined with a laser design.

Cleveland arrived at a groove solution that allows for more grooves by using a sharper top edge of the groove in conjunction with more densely spaced grooves after intensive testing and statistical analysis.

More grooves help to grasp the cover and produce more spin since there are more groove edges to make contact with the ball upon impact. In order to direct moisture and grass debris away for cleaner contact, the wall also has a deeper indentation and a slightly more V-shaped wall angle.

Russell Knox’s Putter

Knox uses a TaylorMade Spider X putter.

The original Spider Tour putter designed by Jason Day served as the model for the TaylorMade Spider X putter. It has a steel frame that distributes weight along the putter's perimeter and a 15-gram carbon composite sole piece located in the center beneath the crown.

Steel weights are included in each corner of the putter specifically for this use. They take the place of the weight pods on the Spider Tour, which were originally used in the R7 Quad.

For 34 and 35-inch putters, the Spider X comes standard with 6-gram weights; however, tungsten variants are also available if you require a greater weight.

TaylorMade has made another advancement with the Spider X Pure Roll face insert, which offers a far better sound and feel than earlier Surlyn inserts due to the aluminum included in the Surlyn composition. In order to keep the ball online, the face's 45° angled grooves ensure that it rolls more quickly.

Russell Knox’s Golf Ball

The Titleist Pro V1x, a multi-piece golf ball with a 328-dimple design, is the ball used by Russell Knox. It feels softer than previous iterations and gives a great deal of swing speed and short-game spin control.
