Jordan Spieth reveals which ball he trusts most when hitting wedges Equipment

He uses a TSR2 driver from the tee and then his fairway woods are a TSR3 15 degree and a TS12 21 degree.

He plays T100 irons from 4-iron through to 9-iron.

He then turns to Vokey Design SM10s for his wedges.

And he wields a Scotty Cameron fine milled putter.

He is also a Titleist ProV1x fan.

It’s the ball for him as he explains in this video.

“For me it’s about no distraction,” says the three-time Major winner. “I don’t even want to think about it.

“I’ve never had to,” he adds. “I’ve played the ProV1x for as long as I can remember.

“I think if it doesn’t feel right you’re not gonna put it in play so that’s the first thing that passes the test.

“What I like to feel, especially as I get around the green, is a nice balance,” says Spieth who has shown his short-game prowess with six top-four finishes at The Masters.

“I don’t want it to feel like a marshmallow because I want to feel like I can hit that driving (pitch) shot that can get to a back pin.

“But I am still somewhere around where I want it to feel a little softer than average.”

Off camera a voice asks: “When you’re evaluating, trying to find that right ball for you, is this kind of the shot that you’re going to go to?”

Spieth is back down the fairway and he talks through the long pitches and wedge shots he’d play from that range and why the ProV1x matters for these shots.

“Yeah I think like we’ll go to 50 or 60 (yards) and see if I can still get that spinner from there.

“But then dropping it back to anywhere from 75 to 125 yards and seeing that nice low window for me.

“That’s the trajectory that’s going to get one hop and it comes back to where it lands. That’s how I like it.

“The ProV1x that I use, they’ve been working hard on that ability to continue to be more and more precise in that lower window with the wedges.”

Since the video was made the new ProV1x has been released, a consequence of that hard work Spieth was talking about.

He’s stuck with the ball – it remains his go to and it’s control on short approaches to the green that are the focus for him when it comes to ball selection.
