Lucas Herbert What's In The Bag?

Lucas Herbert What's In The Bag?

Australian Lucas Herbert has been rising in the world rankings over the past couple of years thanks to some stellar golf. He has had two big victories on the European Tour, one in 2020 and one in 2021. He also won on the PGA Tour in 2021 at the Bermuda Championship. What clubs does he use out on Tour? Let's take a look.

Lucas Herbert What's In The Bag?

Driver

TaylorMade Stealth Plus

Herbert plays a full set of TaylorMade clubs right now starting with a new Stealth Plus driver with nine degrees of loft. Herbert is one of many Tour professionals who have put the new driver in the bag, including Tiger Woods, Collin Morikawa and Rory McIlroy. It also produced brilliant results during our testing. It created impressive ball speeds and plenty of distance, whilst also looking outstanding. The compact profile will suit the better player which explains why so many Tour professionals have put it in the bag.

Fairways

TaylorMade Stealth Plus

He then chooses to use the Stealth Plus model as his three-wood and five-wood as well. We believe they have 15 and 19 degrees of loft respectively. The new model is designed for Tour players and proficient ball-strikers because the overall footprint of the club is quite small, especially when compared with the regular Stealth model. There is no red face here unlike the driver but we thought the re-engineered 80g soleplate was a nice touch and improved turf interaction.

Hybrid

TaylorMade Stealth Plus

He also decides to carry a TaylorMade Stealth Plus Rescue as well with 22 degrees of loft. If we had to guess, this club will come in and out of the setup depending on the golf course, as well as the conditions.

Irons

TaylorMade P7TW

Herbert also occasionally uses a TaylorMade P790 UDI 2-iron. The rest of his irons are TaylorMade P7TW's but they are a funky setup. They go from 4-iron, and then six-iron down to pitching wedge. The lack of five-iron is very interesting indeed and we do occasionally see professionals have gaps like this in their setups. Billy Horschel for example doesn't carry a four-iron. 

The P7TW's were built with Tiger Woods in mind and are as blade-like as irons get. The main difference between the P7TW's and the P730's is the milled grind sole and it was the first iron time the company has used the same CNC milling process on something other than a wedge.

Wedges

TaylorMade Milled Grind 3

He carries three TaylorMade Milled Grind 3 wedges with 50, 56 and 60 degrees of loft. We are yet to confirm what shafts he has in the wedges. A model that came so close to five stars in our review; the MG3 is a very high spinning wedge that delivers improvements in looks, feel and the consistency of the flight versus MG2.

Putter

TaylorMade Spider X Chalk

Finally he uses a TaylorMade Spider X putter which has a Chalk finish. Herbert has been using the Spider X design for a couple of years now and given his success and rise up the world golf rankings, this is not likely to change any time soon.

Ball

TaylorMade TP5

Herbert uses a TaylorMade TP5 golf ball and he has the number 23 printed on it. A five-star model, we thought it was a virtually faultless ball in every area of performance, especially for those who play a lot of competitive golf. The feel leaves a lasting impression as well.

Apparel/Shoes

adidas

Herbert wears adidas apparel and golf shoes. A previous wearer of the Tour360's, it appears the Australian has started using a BOA version of the ZG21 golf shoes. A shoe that got five-stars from us, we couldn't really find anything to fault the ZG21 because it looks good, is very lightweight and comfortable, and the shoe gives as much grip as needed.
