Alright, so I’ve been digging into Patrick Cantlay’s setup for 2024, and let me tell you, it’s been quite a ride. Here’s the lowdown on what I found out and how I did it.
First off, I started by just browsing around, checking out golf forums and some of the usual golf news sites. I figured, where better to look than where the golf geeks hang out, right? I came across a few posts talking about Cantlay’s gear, and it looked like he was making some changes this year.
Then, I decided to get a bit more focused. I hit up a couple of those forums directly and saw some pretty recent discussions about his WITB (that’s “What’s In The Bag” for the uninitiated). There was this one thread where people were uploading photos of his clubs, straight from the course. Man, some people are dedicated! I found photos of his 7-wood, which is a Titleist TS2, set at 21 degrees. That’s a pretty interesting choice, and it got me thinking about what else he might be carrying. And I saw that he had some ZX7’s in the bag this year and also had the Ping Blueprint S’s for a short time.
Next, I started looking at some of the pro player WITB articles. I found a couple of detailed breakdowns of Cantlay’s gear from earlier this year, specifically from the RBC Heritage and the Arnold Palmer Invitational. These were goldmines! They listed out everything, from his driver down to his putter. I learned that his driver is a Titleist TSR2, set at 9 degrees. That’s pretty standard for a pro, but it’s cool to see the specifics.

But, I noticed something. Some of the info was a bit different from what I saw in the forums. So I went back and checked more recent sources. I found another article from the Genesis Invitational that had some different details. It mentioned his driver as a Titleist TS3, set at 9.5 degrees, but adjusted to 8.75, and it’s got a Mitsubishi shaft. It just goes to show how much these guys tweak their gear based on the course or their current swing.
After piecing all this together, I realized that Cantlay’s bag is a mix of old favorites and newer experiments. It seems like he’s always trying to find that perfect setup, just like the rest of us, but with way more resources and expertise. I even tried to cross-reference some of the info with player interviews, but honestly, those didn’t give much away about his gear choices.
So there you have it. My deep dive into Patrick Cantlay’s 2024 WITB. It was a bit of a treasure hunt, but it was fun to see how a top pro’s bag evolves over time. I guess the big takeaway is that even the best players are always tinkering, always searching for that extra edge. And who knows, maybe he’ll switch things up again next week! This is my own experience.
