The Qi10 is Scottie’s stealth bomber, and Scottie’s 8° head is dialed down to launch flat, fly forever, and curve like a whisper
🚀 Scottie Scheffler’s 2025 Season: Cold-Blooded, Tee-to-Green Terminator
There are machines, and then there’s Scottie Scheffler — the Android King of the PGA Tour. If consistency wore FootJoy Premieres and hit baby fades, it’d be Scottie. The man is on a heater that hasn’t cooled since 2022, but 2025 might just be his hottest yet. So far this season, he’s chalked up three wins (including THE PLAYERS — again), five top-5s, and he’s missed a grand total of zero cuts. Nada. Zilch. You’re more likely to find a polite New York taxi driver than see Scottie miss a weekend.
Statistically, he’s a freak of nature: 1st in SG: Tee-to-Green, 1st in SG: Approach, and 1st in Total Boredom Watching Him Play Because He Never Misses. Golf purists love him. Swing nerds obsess over his footwork. Casual fans… well, they’re still trying to figure out how someone who looks like he forgot to iron his shirt can dismantle golf courses like Thanos snapping his fingers.
The most underrated part? He still acts like a normal dude. No entourage, no swing coach drama, no crypto scams. Just a calm Texan with a buttery fade and a putter that’s finally thawing out. If Scottie had even a decent putting week earlier this season, he might’ve won seven times. He’s not just the World No.1 — he’s the Tour’s unofficial Quality Control Inspector.
🧰 Scottie Scheffler’s 2025 WITB: The Arsenal of a Golfing Cyborg
Driver: TaylorMade Qi10 8°, Fujikura Ventus Black 7X shaft
This isn’t a driver — it’s a laser-guided weapon system. The Qi10 is Scottie’s stealth bomber, and Scottie’s 8° head is dialed down to launch flat, fly forever, and curve like a whisper. The Ventus Black 7X shaft is a telephone pole in disguise — stout, stable, and built for players who swing like they’re late for a wedding.
3 Wood: TaylorMade Qi10 15°, Fujikura Ventus Black 8X shaft
Same tech, more loft, and the same shaft beefcake. This club is Scottie’s fairway finder and par-5 assassin. Off the deck, off the tee, into a hurricane — doesn’t matter. He ropes controlled fades that never leave orbit. This setup’s been a weapon since Riviera and hasn’t come out of the bag since.
7 Wood: TaylorMade Qi35 21°, Fujikura Ventus Black 8X shaft
Yes, he carries a 7-wood. And yes, it’s the most lethal 7-wood on Earth. High-launching, soft-landing, and devastating from 230 out. The Qi35 head might be new, but paired with the Ventus Black 8X shaft, it’s more like a scalpel than a sledgehammer. For Scottie, it’s about precision — and this club lands like a feather.
Utility: Srixon ZU85 (3), Nippon N.S. Pro Modus 3 Hybrid Prototype 10X
This is where the bag gets spicy. A Srixon in a TaylorMade bag? Absolutely. Scottie’s loyalty is to ball flight, not branding. This 3-iron-style utility club is a fairway-splitting, stinger-launching monster. The 10X prototype shaft is basically rebar with a grip — only someone with Scheffler’s ball speed and tempo can make it work.
Irons: Srixon ZU85 (4), TaylorMade P7TW (5-PW), True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts
Old school meets elite. The ZU85 4-iron bridges the gap to the P7TW blades — Tiger’s irons, let’s not forget — which means you need surgical hands and an ego of steel to even carry them. Scottie does, and he makes them sing. The X100s are standard issue for the best ball-strikers in the world, and Scottie’s basically their spiritual leader.
Wedges: Titleist Vokey Design SM8 50° (12F), 56° (14F), WedgeWorks SM10 60° (06K), True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts
Classic bounce, elite grind. The Vokeys are still king, and Scottie opts for feel, spin, and consistency with his S400 wedge shafts. The 60° K grind is chunk-proof and spin-rich. Around the greens, it’s a magician’s wand. He doesn’t experiment here — it’s the same wedge setup he’s used for years, and it just keeps printing money.
Putter: TaylorMade Spider Tour X, Golf Pride Pro Only grip
Scottie’s putting woes are overstated. He’s not bad — he just looks awkward. This year, the Spider X has finally clicked. The compact head, tour-weighted feel, and no-nonsense grip give him the confidence to roll it with authority. When it’s on, it’s deadly. When it’s not, it still doesn’t miss by much.
Ball: Titleist Pro V1
Scheffler’s loyalty to the Pro V1 remains unwavering. It’s the Swiss Army ball — low spin off the tee, high control around the greens, and as dependable as his posture. In wind or calm, it does exactly what he wants.
Grips: Golf Pride Tour Velvet
No bells. No whistles. Just pure, Tour-tested corded goodness. These grips are the final link in the feedback chain, and Scottie likes ‘em firm, classic, and clean.
🏆 Scottie Scheffler and the PGA Championship: Close But No Cigar (Yet)
For a guy who wins everything else, the PGA Championship has been the one major where Scottie hasn’t quite slammed the door shut. He’s had solid runs — top 10s, close calls, and Sundays where he looked ready to pounce — but no Wanamaker Trophy yet. In 2020 at Harding Park, he flashed potential with a T4 finish, but Morikawa out cold-blooded him that week. In 2022, he missed the cut, which is the golf version of Bigfoot: rare, slightly mythical, and hotly debated on Reddit.
His game is tailor-made for PGA setups: tight driving lines, punishing rough, and slick greens that separate the posers from the pros. It’s not if he wins this major — it’s when. And if Quail Hollow’s bentgrass greens cooperate, this could be the year.
