K.H. Lee What's In The Bag?

K.H. Lee What's In The Bag?

A two-time winner on the Japan Golf Tour, K.H. Lee shot to prominence in 2021 with victory at the AT&T Byron Nelson where he posted 25-under par and won by three strokes. The win catapulted him into the world's top 100 having started the year around 250th in the world. He would then defend his title in 2022 too. So then what does the South Korean currently carry in his setup? Below we have taken a look.

K.H. Lee What's In The Bag?

Driver

Callaway Epic Max LS

Lee's bag is filled primarily by two brands at the moment, Callaway and Titleist. Starting with the driver he uses a Callaway Epic Max LS which is the lowest spinning model in the Callaway Epic range. It has 10.5 degrees of loft but we believe Lee cranks it down to nine degrees. The Epic Max LS has a larger footprint behind the ball compared to the other models in the Epic range, and also provides shot shape adjustability, which allows golfers to either control their bad shot or encourage a particular shot shape.

Fairway

Callaway Rogue ST LS

KH Lee's fairway wood has recently changed which is interesting because we have found professionals try and limit changing this slot in the bag very often. This is because it is arguably the hardest club to get right and once a player does, they don't want to move away from a model they trust and have confidence in.  

He had been using a Titleist TS3 model with 15 degrees of loft but this has recently come out for a newer Callaway Rogue ST LS model. It also has 15 degrees of loft.

Hybrid

Titleist TS3

He then carries a TS3 hybrid with 19 degrees of loft instead of a five-wood. The TS3 had a new shape when it was released, with more offset and squarer toe, which is more of an iron-like shape. Again, it is interesting he hasn't put the newer model in the bag but clearly KH Lee sticks with clubs and rarely changes as his entire bag has remained the same for a while now.

Irons

Callaway Apex, Callaway X Forged CB

Shifting to the irons Lee uses a Callaway Apex four-iron at the moment before transitioning down into a set of Callaway X Forged CB's. They go from five-iron down to pitching wedge and all of his irons are fitted with Project X LZ 6.5 shafts. 

Wedges

Titleist Vokey SM7

Moving into the wedges, Lee carries three and they are all Titleist Vokey SM7's. They have 52 (bent to 51 degrees), 56 and 60 degrees of loft. Once again Lee has not put newer SM8 or SM9 models in the bag which suggests he trusts the performance on offer from the older model SM7.

Putter

Odyssey Works Versa 2-Ball Fang

His final club in the bag is an Odyssey Works Versa 2-Ball Fang putter. This appears to also have changed recently as he had been using a Toulon Design blade model for a while. 

Ball

Titleist Pro V1x

Finally he uses a Titleist Pro V1x golf ball. It features the same reformulated 2.0 ZG Process Core and softer cover as the Pro V1 for enhanced distance plus improved feel and control. What separates the two is the Pro V1x is the lower spinning model which makes sense given the importance of distance out on Tour at the moment.
