And the wait is over! The 2025 Arnold Palmer Invitational has taken off and everyone is super excited to see how it all unfolds. The awaited tournament is taking place at the Bay Hill Golf Course. The games look good so far with Keegan Bradley, Denny McCarthy and Max Greyserman currently tied for T1 with a score of -3. But we are going to focus on another star today.

Xander Schauffele! The 31-year-old PGA Tour pro has only played one tournament this entire season, owing to a rib injury. It sparked concerns among fans, but the pro now seems healthy. He is currently positioned at T59 with a score of 46. Regardless, the player will surely be eyeing his first major win this year. So, let’s go through his bag to understand what helps him maintain his top-10 position in the OWGR.

When it comes to his driver, Schauffele immediately runs toward the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond driver. He added it to his bag at the beginning of this season, making it a perfect match for his high swing speed. The driver features a slightly more compact 450cc head that enhances workability. With the center of gravity pushed closer to the face, it boasts the lowest-spinning and lowest-launching performance in the Elyte driver family.

This driver is product of the brand’s advanced A.I. design process. By utilizing more player data, the brand has created multiple individual “sweet spot” zones across the width of the Elyte face. This means that whenever Schauffele makes contact, he can expect faster, straighter, and longer drives. He has paired this with a Mitsubishi Chemical Diamana PD 70 TX shaft for optimal stability. It costs between $1,149.99-$1,299.99.

This world No. 3 also carries the Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Ti 340 Mini Driver. It is set at 13.5° and features a Mitsubishi Diamana PD 80 TX shaft. It offers versatility and control where Schauffele needs them, costing $501.99.

Well, how about his woods, you wonder? Well, here you go. Callaway once again wins this game when Xander Schauffele picks up its item. He started using Callaway’s new Elyte Triple Diamond three-wood early this year. He plays the HL model, which features 16.5° of loft, allowing him to achieve a higher trajectory from both the fairway and tee box. It also compliments the Elyte Triple Diamond’s low spin properties, enhancing his overall performance. The compact head shape of the Triple Diamond also improves workability, costing $699.99.

The next in line is the hybrid, and Callaway once again takes the spotlight! Schauffele’s Callaway Apex UW Hybrid (21°) serves as the ideal club to bridge the gap between his three-wood and four-iron. This versatile utility wood combines the characteristics of a five-wood and a hybrid, allowing for high launches and sharp descents–perfect for Schauffele to execute soft-landing second shots. It costs $299.99.

The next important item is the irons, and we are now seeing a pattern here. The pattern: the heavy presence of Callaway products in the golfer’s bag. Here’s what the next one looks like. His Callaway Apex TCB ’24 irons are crafted for elite ball-strikers, featuring a classic head shape and delivering a flawless feel. Known as Tour Cavity Back irons, they have a design with minimal offset that provides a touch of forgiveness while catering to players like Schauffele, who consistently find the center of the face. Equipped with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts, these irons come for $1,505.00.

In contrast, we have Mizuno three irons, which stand in his bag that is mostly filled with Callaway equipment. The Mizuno MP-20 HMB resembles a blade iron but features a hollow body and tungsten weighting in the toe and heel, offering an ideal blend of speed. It costs $649.99. Schauffele often uses his Mizuno MP-20 HMB three iron as a driving iron, effectively showcasing his skill on the course.

But there’s a lot more to discuss when it comes to this golfer’s bag. So don’t just leave, yet. Here’s what his wedges and putters look like.

Take a look at Xander Schauffele’s wedges and putters

Whew, we are finally on the wedges and new brands! Xander Schauffele’s primary weapon from outside 100 yards is the new 52° Callaway OPUS wedge. It allows him to control spin with remarkable ease. The innovative Spin Gen Face allows the OPUS wedges to deliver a lower-launching, higher-spinning ball flight. Additionally, a quartz face blast applied to the Spin Gen face increases friction at impact, further enhancing his performance. It comes between $164.95 to $359.98.

Besides that one, Schauffele carries two Vokey wedges: a 56° SM10 and a custom-made 60° Wedgeworks prototype. He uses the SM10 for shots closer to the green, where he can chip and pitch with precision. The Wedgeworks prototype is his go-to club for splashing out of greenside bunkers. The former comes for $199.99, and the latter for $225.

The putter is completely new game for Schauffele. It comes from Odyssey. The Odyssey Toulon Design Las Vegas Prototype Putter features a fanged mallet design that enhances stability during his putting stroke. The plumber’s neck hosel provides a level of toe hang that complements his unique putting style and costs $599.99. No wonder he has been keeping this in his bag despite his reputation as a tinkerer with the flat stick! To further enhance his grip and control, he has fitted his putter with a SuperStroke Zenergy Tour 2.0 grip, which offers a comfortable and secure hold.

Now! Last but not the least: Callaway Chrome Tour golf ball! And, yes, this is another Callaway product. It is designed to enhance his performance on the course. This four-piece ball features a lower compression of 90, making it softer than the firmer Chrome Tour X, which has a compression of 98. It also allows the ball to spin more, giving Schauffele increased stopping power on the greens. It costs $71.99.

And with that, we are finally done! So what do you think of his games now? Let us know!
