Titleist TS3

For many years he had Titleist's 917 driver in the bag but he now has the TS3 driver. A very popular driver, the TS3 has a classic pear shape and a multitude of fitting options thanks to the SureFit CG on the sole and the neck adjustability. It feels very powerful at impact and is suited to the better player.

Titleist TS2

Simpson had been using the TaylorMade M4 fairway but it appears he has since put a Titleist TS2 model in the bag with 15 degrees of loft. His 5-wood is the Titleist 913Fd. The Fd version features a weight further forward for a more penetrating, low-spinning ball flight.

Titleist 913Hd, Titleist 915Hd

Simpson then has a 913Hd hybrid in 20 degrees and a 915Hd in 23.5 degrees of loft. The former has a Graphite Design shaft whilst the latter is interestingly fitted with a Dynamic Gold steel shaft.

Titleist 620 MB

He had been using Titleist 718 muscleback irons but has since switched to 620 MB's. We believe these go from six-iron down to nine-iron because he decides to carry the hybrids and four Titleist Vokey wedges.

Titleist Vokey SM8, Titleist Vokey SM7

We believe the American then has four wedges, a Titleist Vokey SM8 with 46 degrees, two SM7's with 52 and 56 degrees, and finally a Vokey Prototype as his lob wedge.

Odyssey Tank Cruiser V-Line

In the past he has struggled with his putting as he used to use an anchor style and that was banned in 2016. Nowadays it seems he has found a system that works for him with the Odyssey Tank Cruiser V-Line putter, which he runs up his forearm in an armlock-style hold and combines with a claw grip.

Titleist Pro V1

Finally Simpson uses the Titleist Pro V1 golf ball. A top performer out on Tour and in the amateur game, the ball offers superb, but distinct, all round performance. We were also seriously impressed with the strength and consistency of the flight, particularly in the wind.
