Sam Bennett, a golfer on the Korn Ferry Tour, has won seven amateur championships, including the 2022 U.S. Amateur, which earned him a direct exemption to the 2023 Masters Tournament; he finished in T16. But because he didn't place in the top 12, he wasn't invited to the 2024 Masters. He turned professional in 2023 and his sixth-place finish at the PGA Tour University earned him a 2024 Korn Ferry Tour card.

Sam Bennett’s Driver

Bennett uses the Ping G430 LST driver. After using the G410 Plus for some time, he decided to give the newer model a try in 2023. His model has a Mitsubishi Diamana 70 TX shaft and a loft of 10.5 degrees. One of the primary differences between the LST and the other two versions is that only the low-spin version of the new driver comes with a carbon crown.

Sam Bennett’s Fairways

Bennett's three-wood, though, is the older G425 Max Fairway wood, with the loft to be about 14.5 degrees, and the Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw White 75 TX shaft installed. The G425 Max boasts an eight-setting adjustable hosel. This enables you to adjust the G425 to more precise requirements by allowing you to modify both the loft and the lie.

Sam Bennett’s Hybrid

Bennett appears to have a lot of faith in and uses the Ping G425 hybrid. This has an Aldila Tour Blue TX shaft and 19 degrees of loft. According to Golf Monthly, this club was long, highly forgiving, and it also provided a good alternative to a variety of lies.

Sam Bennett’s Irons

Bennett uses Ping iBlades irons. He is departing from the Ping Blueprints set he had for a while. Compared to the Blueprint iron's all-muscle back design, the iBlade might provide a little more forgiveness, as per Golf Monthly.

Sam Bennett’s Wedges

Next, Bennett has three Ping Glide Forged Pro wedges that have KBS Tour 130 X shafts with loft degrees of 50-10S, 56-10S, and 60-10S. For players who depend on accuracy and control to shoot lower scores, the tour-inspired, high-spinning design is available in two grind profiles and many loft settings.

Players can confidently adjust the head to better execute any shot they face owing to the smaller heel-to-toe head made of 8620 carbon steel, which creates a captured look at the address.

Sam Bennett’s Putter

The last club in his bag is a Ping PLD prototype, which is designed like a mallet. This putter has a similar head shape to Ping's DS72 but a slightly different neck and overall design. His model has a kind of rust finish and appears to be a Tour prototype.
