Looks like Scottie Scheffler is ready to add another PGA Tour win to his resume! From day one of the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational, the World No. 1 has put on an impressive display of golf and carded a 2 under 70 in round one. Scheffler further improved his momentum on day two by scoring a sub-70 and ending the round second with a 5 under 67.

Despite struggling on the course with his putting, the 27-year-old is at the top of the leaderboard, sharing the spot with Shane Lowry with a total score of 9 under 207 after the third round. Scheffler first paired up with TaylorMade in early 2022, and it looks like the Carlsbad-based brand will be seen in his golf bag for a while, as Scheffler signed a multi-year contract with the equipment brand at the beginning of 2024. So what are the pieces of equipment that World No. 1 has brought to the Bay Hill Golf Course?

Starting off the list is the driver used by the 2022 Master Champion, the TaylorMade Qi10 LS driver, giving him the precise power to hit off the tee. This driver has an 8-degree loft equipped with a Fujikura Ventus Black 7 X shaft. The TaylorMade Qi10 driver is priced at an estimate of $629.  

For his Fairway Woods, Scheffler trusts the TaylorMade Qi10 with a 3-wood. It has the Fujikura Ventus Black 8 X shaft set at an angle of 15 degrees. This fairway Woods offers him long-range accuracy with the mid-spin that he requires. It comes at a cost of around $349. 

The 27-year-old uses two irons, with his primary one being the Srixon Z U85 utility irons (3-4). This iron is fitted with a Nippon N.S. Pro Modus 3 Hybrid Prototype 10 X (3) shaft. The price for this one is set at around $119. Another addition to his iron setup is the TaylorMade P7TW. These clubs have a 5-PW (Pitching wedge range) giving him a superb flight with trajectory control for mid-range shots. It comes at an estimated cost of a whopping $1,999.   

Which putter and wedges does Scheffler use?

Scheffler has a different choice when it comes to his wedges. He trusts the Titleist Vokey Design SM8 wedges that come at a loft of 50 and 56 degrees. This one is priced at a cost of around $139. Complementing his collection is the Titleist Vokey Design WedgeWorks Proto (60-06K, 60.5-T) with a shaft of True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400.

Putting is the only thing that has had the six-time PGA Tour winner for a long time. After trying the mallet putters to improve his putting, the six-time PGA Tour winner has now switched to the TaylorMade Spider Tour X putter that comes with a Golf Pride Pro Only grip. The putter costs an estimated $349.99. For the ball, the 27-year-old prefers the Titleist Pro V1 ball, which costs $55. Featuring a softer cast urethane elastomer cover, this ball is considerably the best one amongst all others.
