Bernd Wiesberger What's In The Bag?

Bernd Wiesberger What's In The Bag?

There was a time when Austrian Bernd Wiesberger was a regular feature of the worlds top-50 golfers in the world, however injuries throughout the 2018 season saw him drop all the way down to 378th in the world. But he won three times in 2019 at the Italian Open, Made in Denmark and then Scottish Open, and has since returned to the top of the game. The Austrian now has eight European Tour wins so let's take a look inside his bag.

Bernd Wiesberger What's In The Bag?

Driver

Titleist TSR3

The Austrian has been a Titleist staff member for a while now and used to have a full bag of clubs from the brand but there are a couple not made by them. Starting at the top of the bag he uses a Titleist TSR3 driver with 8.5 degrees of loft and it has a Aldila RIP 75 TX Prototype shaft. The TSR3 features the classic-shaped head at address, with the main aim of the driver being to make it faster through the air. Titleist have done this by installing a smoother sole, smaller hosel opening and a taller back section, which is actually more noticeable on the TSR2. 

However, looks wise, it is certainly slick and almost Tesla-inspired with how the weight track and silver strip form a T-shape on the sole. What's more, the five-position SureFit CG track has been neatened up so the weight sits more flush in the extreme positions.

Fairway

Ping G430 Max

Next up Wiesberger was using TSi fairways from Titleist and we believe he was testing the TSR models as well, but it looks like he has put a Ping G430 Max three-wood in the bag. At address, the carbon finish, along with the dark grey and neon green accents, give the G430 Max fairway a more premium and modern look than models before it. His model has around 13.5 degrees of loft and looks to have a TPT prototype shaft.

Hybrid

Titleist 818H2

Then, instead of a five-wood, Wiesberger uses a 17 degree 818H2 hybrid. It has been in the bag for a few years now and he hasn't shown any willingness to change, indicating just how much he trusts the club and its performance. 

Irons

Titleist T100, Titleist 620 CB, Titleist 620 MB

Currently he is one of the many players who have a combo set of irons in the bag but instead of just the two different sets of irons he actually uses three different models. First he has a Titleist T100 three-iron. He then carries the Titleist 620 CBs from the four to six-iron, then from the seven to nine-iron he carries the 620 MB irons. He has also occasionally carried a Titleist T200 Utility iron as well but we can assume this comes in and out of the setup depending on the golf course and conditions.

Wedges

Titleist Vokey SM9

Like most Titleist staff players, Wiesberger has a set of Titleist Vokey SM9 wedges in the bag. Interestingly, instead of carrying a pitching wedge as part of his iron set, he uses a 46 degree SM9, and then his next two wedges have 53 and 59 degrees of loft. The three wedge setup is very common out on Tour because it allows enough versatility and distance gapping without having to compromise on clubs at the top end of the bag.

Putter

L.A.B Golf Mezz XL

Finally, after having used Scotty Cameron blades and mallets for many years, usually with a Two Thumb grip, it appears Wiesberger has now switched to an Adam Scott-esque L.A.B Golf Mezz XL with the broom handle design. 

Ball

Titleist Pro V1

He also uses a Titleist Pro V1 ball. Wiesberger has occasionally switched between the Pro V1 and Pro V1x but right now the former is part of his setup. The Austrian only uses high numbers on his golf balls as he usually likes to use a golf ball with a '5' on for Thursday's and then go up to '8' on Sunday's. He also does this to make his ball stand out from other professionals who use the Pro V1 golf ball.
