Rory McIlroy's Golf Clubs

Posted at 2:23 PM by David Dusek | Categories: Rory McIlroy , Titleist

Rorymcilroy A lot has been written about Rory McIlroy's poise and game. At 19, fairly or not, he's making golf scribes and fans alike openly wonder if he is the future No. 1 player in the world. In fact, even Tiger Woods recently weighed in on the topic.

"He has the composure and all the components to be the best player in the world. It's just a matter of time and experience and then gaining that experience in big events. That just takes time and, I mean, geez, he's only 19. Just give him some time and I'm sure he'll be there."

McIlroy plays Titleist equipment through the bag, and recently made a trip to the company's Carlsbad, Calif., headquarters to fine tune his gear. Below is a complete list of the clubs and shafts he is using, as well as a video provided by Titleist in which McIlroy describes why he made a few adjustments to his wedges.

Driver:                  Titleist 909D2 (8.5°) with Fujikura Rombax 7V05 shaft
Fairway woods:     Titleist 906F2 (13.0°, 18°) with Fujikura Pro 95 shafts
Irons:                    Titleist ZM (4-9) with True Temper Project X shafts
Wedges:               Titleist Vokey Design (48°, 52°), Spin Milled (56°, 60°) with True Temper Project X shafts
Putter:                  Scotty Cameron by Titleist Newport Fastback
Ball:                      Titleist Pro V1x (2009)

rory should spend more time learning the rules and controlling his temper as he does on his shafts hell be a better palyer

My Project X shafts were made by Royal Precision

anthony, learn to SPELL and maybe you'll get "LUCKY" like Rory if people don't think you're an idiot. If you're THAT good, play through the ranks and WIN like Rory did. If not, learn to read and write so you won't be scrubbing toilets for the rest of your life.

i ont know what the big deal is.. i can play with him and im 18 no one ever comes to this sisde of the world to see talent ... he got lucky and got found.. ive never been discovered yet... COME PLAY ME

what's the point of having the video if it doesn't work?

It's great to see young people like Rory McIlroy find success in something they are passionate and serious about.
