Gotterup's Unique Bag: Power Meets Precision
16 Jul
Summary
- Gotterup uses rare Bridgestone muscle back irons.
- His driver is optimized for stability and control.
- He sees major putting improvement this season.
Chris Gotterup, a three-time winner this season, is gaining recognition for his unique approach to the game, both in his swing and his equipment. He stands out as the sole PGA Tour player employing Bridgestone Golf's newest muscle back irons, a choice aimed at enhancing control over his considerable power.
His driver setup prioritizes stability, a key element in his top-10 ranking for driving distance. Complementing this, a mini driver offers added control for precise tee shots. Gotterup's irons are specifically customized to manage his shot dispersion, while his golf ball selection helps regulate spin.
This season, Gotterup has also experienced a dramatic improvement in his putting, moving from outside the top 100 to 27th in Strokes Gained: Putting. This significant gain is partly attributed to his switch to a TaylorMade Spider Tour X Black putter with a short alignment line, which helps him line up shots more effectively.
Gotterup's unconventional yet effective bag setup is increasingly seen as a blueprint for modern power golfers on the PGA Tour.
