Alex Fitzpatrick‘s bag isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s a heavy, high-tech setup that screams stability. There’s no room for guesswork here. Every single club choice looks like a calculated move to kill any side spin. The younger brother of Matt Fitzpatrick is making his own name on the PGA TOUR with 1 win, 7 top 25s and 12/13 cuts made this season.

A heavy wood setup

The long game is built on pure power and stability. Per GolfWRX, Fitzpatrick uses a Ping G440 LST driver with 9 degrees of loft. That head is paired with a Fujikura Ventus Black 6 X shaft. It’s a low-spin, high-speed combination that keeps the ball running forever. The fairway woods are even more interesting to watch. He carries a 15-degree TaylorMade Qi4D 3-wood with a Fujikura Ventus TR Black 7 X shaft. He also has a 21-degree TaylorMade Qi4D 7-wood using a Fujikura Ventus Black 9 X shaft. That is a lot of weight at the end of those shafts. He even adds a 24-degree TaylorMade Qi35 9-wood with another Fujikura Ventus Black 9 X shaft. This setup is designed to stay extremely stable through the hitting zone.

Stability.

Precision irons and wedges

The approach game relies on classic precision. The iron set consists of Titleist T100 models from 5 through 9. These irons use Nippon N.S. Pro Modus3 Tour 120 X shafts. It’s a very consistent, stiff setup for tight shots. The wedge game is just as specific. According to GolfWRX, his wedge setup includes Titleist Vokey Design SM11 models at 46, 50, and 56 degrees, along with a 60-degree WedgeWorks model. The 46 and 50-degree wedges use Nippon N.S. Pro Modus3 Tour 120 X shafts. However, the 56 and 60-degree wedges switch to True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts. That change in shaft weight helps with control around the greens. Why switch? Because the heavier steel shafts stop the head from twisting on delicate shots.

The finishing touches

Putting and ball choice finish the bag with total reliability. He uses an Odyssey Ai-One #7 DB putter. The grips are Golf Pride MCC models. For the ball, he sticks with the Titleist Pro V1x. It’s a bag built for a player who wants zero surprises from their equipment. You won’t find any gimmicks here, just workhorse gear.
