Rory Sabbatini's HP Byron Nelson winning clubs

Posted at 9:55 PM by David Dusek | Categories: Rory Sabbatini , TaylorMade , UST Mamiya , Winner's Bag

Rory-Sabbatini Rory Sabbatini has played with golf equipment made by several manufacturers over the past few seasons, but on March 13 he signed a new endorsement deal with TaylorMade. His win at the HP Byron Nelson Championship was his first using the company's gear.

The win was also the first for the new UST ProForce AXIVCore green shaft. The shaft was released last week and is designed for players who want a lower launch angle and penetrating ball flight. Like other AXIVCore shafts, it has high-modulus graphite woven in different directions within the shaft for a more consistent feel and greater stability.

Here is a complete list of the clubs in Sabbatini's bag:

DRIVER:                   TaylorMade R9 (9.5°) with UST ProForce AXIVCore Green 66X shaft
FARIWAY WOOD:    TaylorMade Tour Burner (14.5°,19°)
HYBRID:                    Adams Idea Pro Gold (21°)
IRONS:                     TaylorMade Tour Preferred (4-PW)
WEDGES:                 TaylorMade RAC (56°, 60°)
PUTTER:                   Rossa Monza Daytona Kia Ma
BALL:                       Callaway Tour i
