Holmes and Weekley's Ryder Cup Clubs

Posted at 3:45 PM by David Dusek | Categories: Boo Weekley , J.B. Holmes , Ryder Cup

Holmesryder_fri_450x600 Using a Rife Barbados belly putter, J.B. Holmes (right) was in contention at the PGA Championship until a final-round 81 derailed him.

In his first Ryder Cup appearance, he's switched back to the putter he used to win the FBR Open last February, the TaylorMade Monza Spider belly putter.

Here is a list of the other clubs in his bag at Valhalla:
Driver                      Cobra L4V X (8°)
Fairway woods:      Cobra Speed LD-X Pro (13°, 18°)
Irons                        Cobra Pro CB (3-PW)
Wedges                   Titleist Vokey Design Spin Milled (54°, 60°)
Putter                      TaylorMade Rosa Monza Spider belly
Ball                          Titleist Pro V1x

Boo Weekley, Holmes' playing partner both Friday and Saturday afternoon, is known as one of the most solid ballstrikers on either side of the Atlantic. To make his job a little easier, he uses a hybrid (a Cleveland HiBore XLS) and cavity-back long irons, but he prefers classic blades for his mid- and short-irons for more control and workability.

According to Cleveland Golf, these are the clubs in Weekley's bag:
Driver: 
                   Cleveland HiBore XL (9.5°)
Fairway woods:
      Cleveland HiBore XLS (15°), HiBore (19°)
Hybrid:
                    Cleveland HiBore XLS (3i)
Irons:
                       Cleveland CG Red (4,5), CG1 (6-PW)
Wedges:
                  Cleveland CG10 (52°), CG14 (58°)
Putter:
                     Never Compromise GM2 Exchange #7
Ball:
                         Titleist Pro V1x
