How Picking the Right Clubs Helped Scottie Scheffler Dominate the PGA Championship
Scottie Scheffler’s victory at the 2025 PGA Championship was historic - but just as impressive as the trophy was the bag of clubs he used to get there. From a perfectly fit 7-wood to a record-setting putter, Scottie’s setup is a masterclass in modern fitting, ball flight control, and purpose-driven gear selection.
At GOLFTEC, we help golfers at every level learn from the best. Here’s what stood out in Scheffler’s winning What's In The Bag - and how it might apply to your game.
The Bold move: Swapping a 3-Iron for a Qi35 7-Wood
Leading up to Charlotte, Scottie made a strategic gear change: he replaced his 3-iron with a TaylorMade Qi35 7-wood. It wasn’t just about gaining distance; it was about launch, spin, and predictability.
The 7-wood launched about 1.5-2 degrees higher than his 3-iron and generated roughly 1,500 more RPMs of spin. The result? A consistent 240-yard carry - exactly the number Scheffler was looking for into long par 3s and tight second-shot par 5s.
Why does this matter to you? If you struggle with long irons or don’t see a consistent launch window it might be time to explore fairway woods or hybrids - custom fit to your swing.
Wins and Counting: Spider Tour X L-Neck Putter
Since switching to the TaylorMade Spider Tour X L-Neck at the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational, Scheffler has captured two major titles and added multiple PGA Tour wins to his resume.
Why the change? It came down to visual feedback and center-face contact. Working with TaylorMade’s fitting team, Scottie replaced the dot on his old blade with the True Path alignment system - giving him better feedback and boosting confidence in setup and stroke.
This is why club fitting matters. One small change can unlock major results. At GOLFTEC, we’ve got the tools and tech to help you play your best golf.
