Jump to: Homa’s WITB

Max Homa has enjoyed an exceptional rise since 2021, lifting PGA Tour titles, making a winning Presidents Cup debut and reaching a career-high of 13th in the Official World Golf Rankings.

Today's Golfer What's In The Bag is brought to you in association with Callaway Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X golf balls.

Following an incredible 2023 season, Homa will be heading to Rome in September to represent the USA in this year’s Ryder Cup – his first appearance in this competition.

The 32-year-old American is a Titleist staff player and uses a full bag of the brand’s clubs, along with their Pro V1 ball. He wears FootJoy clothing and shoes.

Max Homa won the 2023 Farmers Insurance Open for his sixth PGA Tour title.

Homa, who turned pro in 2013, won twice on the Korn Ferry Tour before gaining his PGA Tour card. He won his first event on the biggest stage at the 2019 Wells Fargo Championship. Wins two and three came in 2021 at the Genesis Invitational and the Fortinet Championship. He then picked up his second Wells Fargo and Fortinet Championship titles in 2022, before lifting his latest trophy at the Farmers Insurance Open at the start of 2023.

The Californian’s best Major performance to date came at The Open this year where he finished T10.

What’s in the bag: Max Homa

What driver does Max Homa use?

Max Homa uses a Titleist TSR3 driver (9.0°) with a Mitsubishi Tensei <meta charset="utf-8">1K Black 65 TX shaft

Price: £529 / $599.99 RRP
While Homa may not be known for his driving ability, he doesn't perform badly against other players on the PGA Tour. In every driving statistic, he is better than the field average.

He may not be lighting up the fairways from the tee box but with a very respectable average distance of just over 300 yards, it definitely helps him with strokes gained, where he ranks 8th on the season.

What fairway woods does Max Homa use?

Max Homa carries a Titleist TSR2 fairway wood (14.5°) with a Fujikura Ventus TR Red 8 X shaft

Alongside the 3-wood, Homa also carries a 21° fairway wood with a Fujikura Ventus Red 9 X shaft.

What irons does Max Homa use?

Max Homa games a Titleist T150 3 iron with a KBS Tour 105 Prototype Graphite Hybrid X shaft

For increased distance and forgiveness, Homa drifts from his T100s and 620MB irons to a T200 3-iron. Sporting the same shaft as the rest of his irons this club fits perfectly in his bag.

He sometimes switches this out for the 21° fairway wood.

Max Homa uses Titleist T100s 4-iron with a KBS $-Taper 130 X shaft

Titleist's T100s irons are very small with a thin topline, but they are slightly stronger lofted than the T100. Homa's iron play is very strong, ranking 21st this season for strokes gained on approaching the green.

Max Homa has a Titleist T100 5-iron with a KBS $-Taper 130 X shaft

To bridge the gap between the T100s and 620MB irons, Homa has a T100 5-iron which is more traditionally lofted, to seamlessly blend into the MB irons he plays with at the bottom end of the bag.

Price: £157 / $175 RRP
Homa's iron play has helped him massively to take advantage of par 3's. He is ranked 1st for birdie or better on par 3's and he is second in scoring average with 2.95.

What wedges does Max Homa use?

Max Homa opts for Titleist Vokey Design SM9 wedges 46°-10F <meta charset="utf-8">with KBS $ Taper 130 X shafts, 50°-12F and 56º-14F with KBS Hi-Rev 2.0 135 X shafts, and WedgeWorks <meta charset="utf-8">60°A with KBS Hi-Rev 2.0 120 Proto

Scrambling is another key part of Homa's game, ranking 19th overall for the season on the PGA Tour and 17th when playing out of the rough.

What putter does Max Homa use?

Max Homa has a Titleist Scotty Cameron T5.5 Prototype putter in the bag

Price: £399.00 / $429.00 RRP
Putting is arguably the best part of Homa's game. Based on four putting statistics tracked by the PGA Tour his worst ranking is 11th which is for putts per round (28). He ranks 2nd for putting average, 5th for strokes gained: putting, and 10th in the field average. Not bad with the flat stick.

You might not be able to purchase the exact putter in Homa's bag, but you can get one that's very similar.

What golf balls does Max Homa use?

Max Homa chooses to play with the Titleist Pro V1 golf balls

Homa chooses to play with the softer version of Titleist's premium golf balls - this could be what gives him the edge around and on the greens.

What golf shoes does Max Homa wear?

Max Homa often sports FootJoy Premiere Series golf shoes

Price: £169.99 / $199.99
A very traditional golf shoe for a very modern golfer.
