Keith Mitchell will face the most intense battle of his PGA Tour career at the Copperhead Course. The Chattanooga local hasn’t won a title since 2019. But his record in the Valspar Championship puts him in a great position. In the last three appearances in the Florida-based event, Mitchell has finished in the top 25 twice. His closest was the T11 in 2017. In 2024, the Tennessee resident was at the top of the leaderboard on the penultimate day. Unfortunately, the snake pit was too much for him to deal with in the final round. Mitchell went 6-over par 77 to finish at T17.

In 2025 as well, the 33-year-old has had a great start. After completing his 18th, he was at T1 with Jacob Bridgeman, Stephan Jaeger, and Ricky Castello with a 4-under 67. Mitchell started off well just like he did in 2024. But has he changed anything to ensure he doesn’t get the fourth-round jitters? His golf kit might give us a hint at his plan for this year. So let’s take a look at his set of clubs.

Keith Mitchell likes to mix it up

We can say Keith Mitchell is a Mizuno guy since the majority of his bag is compiled by the brand’s clubs. But that would be unfair to the beautiful TaylorMade pieces that help him win big. However, he has changed things up to find clubs more suitable for his playstyle.

From the Mizuno Pro 221 to the Mizuno ST-Z 230, Mitchell has made a major upgrade to his driver. Now he can take advantage of the higher launch, better ball speed, and incredible balance on his strokes. The big upgrade has actually come at a cheaper price, as his driver from 2024 worth $1,499.99 has dropped down to $300 for the ST-Z 230.

The next piece in his kit is the TaylorMade Qi10, which offers controlled strokes and excellent ball speed due to the Thru-Slot Speed Pocked technology. This is a big upgrade from the Titleist TSR3 he had last year. The price for a Qi10 comes at $349.99 online.

Interestingly, Mitchell also has a Titleist TS2 7-wood, the same wood he also carried last year. This allows the PGA Tour pro to play aggressively and offers more speed and amazing forgiveness. It is priced at $399.

For his set of irons, the Tennessee local has the Mizuno Pro 221 (4-9) and Mizuno Pro 225 (2). The Mizuno Pro 221 offers better control and great workability with the frame, making every stroke off it more accurate. Alternatively, Mitchell had carried the Pro 225 in his bag last year as well for its amazing wind penetration and ability to strike the ball at a larger distance than many other irons. Both models of irons are worth $399 apiece.

These were all the short grass off-green clubs in Keith Mitchell’s bag. Now let’s learn about his wedges and putter.

Getting out of difficult situations and finishing the game

When it comes to wedges, Keith Mitchell uses three different varieties of clubs. He has the Mizuno T24 for his 46° needs, the Mizuno T22 for 50° and 56° requirements, and the Vokey WedgeWorks Proto for all roughs and bunkers that need a 60° wedge. Both, the Mizuno T24 and T22 offer control over spin due to their compact shapes. The Mizuno T24 is worth $129.98 while the T22 comes for $99.99. The Vokey WedgeWorks Proto is extremely customizable, making it perfect for a wide range of strokes. That justifies its price of $299.99.

The Scotty Cameron J.A.T. (Just A Thought) Prototype is Mitchell’s choice of putter. Its design is inspired by Sergio Garcia and the arc of the club makes it easy for the pro to align his stroke with the cup as they watch it sink after contact. Each of these putters can range around $799.99 but are not easily available in the market anymore.

Like many other players, Mitchell also uses the Titleist Pro V1 golf ball in his kit. A box of a dozen of these is worth $55 on the official website of the brand.
