What’s In The Bag: Justin Rose

What’s in Justin Rose’s golf bag? We delve into the Englishman’s equipment for the 2024 season

Jump To: WITB Rose

It’s been quite the golf equipment rollercoaster for Justin Rose in recent years.

Having spent the best part of two decades with TaylorMade, the Englishman parted ways with the equipment giant at the end of 2018 to take more control of the design of his golf clubs, signing a 10-club multi-year deal with premium Japanese manufacturer Honma at the start of 2019.

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

Their relationship got off to a flying start as Rose, the then World No.1, won his 10th PGA Tour title at the Farmers Insurance Open in only his second outing with his new clubs.

Rose’s Honma split

After the initial success, a dip in form and slide down the rankings followed and the former US Open champion’s split with Honma was made official in May 2020. Since then he’s remained an equipment-free agent, picking and choosing the equipment in his bag and playing a huge variety of brands, including TaylorMade, Cobra, Titleist, and Callaway. Despite that, his winless streak had extended beyond four years, dating back to the 2019 Farmers Insurance Open.

But Rose showed that class is permanent as he lifted the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am – his 11th PGA Tour title – securing his place in the field for the Masters and giving him hope of a return to Europe’s Ryder Cup team for the match in Italy.

Justin Rose, Henrik Stenson and Matt Kuchar won the gold, silver and bronze men's golf medals respectively at the Rio 2016 Olympics but haven't qualified for Tokyo 2020.

The Olympic gold medalist and 2013 US Open Champion, who Today’s Golfer also named one of the 100 most influential people in golf, was subsequently given that opportunity by Captain Luke Donald and went on to represent Team Europe for the sixth time.

What driver does Justin Rose use?

Justin Rose uses a Titleist GT3 Driver (9°) with a Project X HZRDUS Black 60 TX shaft

What fairway woods does Justin Rose use?

Justin Rose uses TaylorMade M6 fairway woods (15°, 18°) with Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX 80 TX shafts

TaylorMade has made fast-faced fairways since 2012, and for the first time in 2019, both the M6 and M5 come with TwistFace tech, which helps straighten high-toe and low-heel mishits for straighter, more accurate shots.

The M6’s head is a little bigger to ramp up forgiveness and our test pro said it felt extremely hot and powerful. That was before we checked our data and spotted the M6 (with a 153mph ball speed) was our fastest fairway of 2019.
