Smotherman's winning bag: Titleist, TaylorMade, L.A.B. at Bank of Utah
Austin Smotherman won the PGA Tour’s 2026 Bank of Utah Championship, according to golfweek.usatoday.com, and the outlet has the complete list of the equipment he used to get there.
The winning bag is a three-brand mix: Titleist, TaylorMade, and L.A.B. Golf. Golfweek senior writer David Dusek, who covers equipment, technology, and PGA Tour analytics, compiled the breakdown.
No details on the tournament score, margin of victory, or opponent are in the source; the report is strictly a winner’s-bag equipment list. What is confirmed is the gear itself, starting with a Titleist GT3 driver at 10 degrees and a TaylorMade Qi10 fairway wood at 15 degrees.
The full list runs through irons, wedges, putter, ball, and grips, with the putter spot going to an L.A.B. VZN.1i and the ball to a Titleist Pro V1x.
DRIVER, FAIRWAY WOODS AND HYBRID
At the top of the bag, Smotherman trusted a Titleist GT3 driver set at 10 degrees, paired with a Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX 60 6.5 TX shaft, per golfweek.usatoday.com.
For the fairway wood, he carried a TaylorMade Qi10 at 15 degrees with a Graphite Design Tour AD IZ-7 X shaft.
The hybrid spot went to a TaylorMade SIM Max at 19 degrees, equipped with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI Hybrid shaft.
These three clubs anchor the long game of a setup that blends Titleist and TaylorMade across the top end, according to the Golfweek equipment breakdown. The source does not specify which shots or holes Smotherman used these clubs on during the win, so exact on-course usage has not been confirmed.
IRONS AND WEDGES
Smotherman’s iron set runs from 4-iron through 9-iron with Titleist T100s, each fitted with KBS Tour 125 S+ shafts, per the Golfweek winner’s bag list.
The scoring clubs are all Titleist Vokey SM10 wedges. He carries a 46-degree model on the same KBS Tour 125 S+ shaft as his irons, giving him a seamless transition from the 9-iron into the first wedge, according to golfweek.usatoday.com.
From there, he adds three more Vokey SM10s at 50, 54, and 60 degrees, all built with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts.
That four-wedge setup, combined with the T100 irons, gives Smotherman a fully Titleist-driven approach from the middle of the bag down to the greenside. The source does not specify any club performance stats or shot outcomes from the event, so how each wedge performed in key moments has not been confirmed.
PUTTER, BALL AND GRIPS
The putter is a L.A.B. VZN.1i, a model that continues the brand's lie-angle-balanced design philosophy. Smotherman paired it with the Titleist Pro V1x ball, completing his all-Titleist ball and wedge setup, per golfweek.usatoday.com.
Grip selection splits by task. For full swings, he uses Golf Pride MCC Align grips, which feature a ridge to help players consistently square the face. On the putter, he runs a SuperStroke Zenergy TLT Pistol 1.0, a thicker counterbalanced grip designed to reduce wrist action in the stroke.
These final components close out the complete equipment list reported by golfweek.usatoday.com. The bag blends Titleist for the driver, irons, wedges, and ball, TaylorMade for the fairway wood and hybrid, and L.A.B. for the putter.
Notably absent from the source is any putting statistics or ball performance data from the event. How the VZN.1i performed on the greens at the Bank of Utah Championship, or how the Pro V1x held up in the wind, has not been confirmed.
WHAT TO WATCH NEXT
What comes next for Smotherman’s gear remains an open question. The source is solely a winner’s bag equipment list for the 2026 Bank of Utah Championship — it does not mention his next tournament or any upcoming event.
No schedule, ranking, or career details are provided. Any future tournament plans, equipment changes, or career updates are not in the source and remain unconfirmed.
For fans tracking potential adjustments, Golfweek’s equipment coverage is the place to watch. David Dusek, a Golfweek senior writer who focuses on golf equipment, technology, and PGA Tour analytics, reported the winning bag list.
Whether Smotherman sticks with this exact setup or tweaks it before his next start is something only future coverage can answer.
