What’s In The Bag: Xander Schauffele
Published:
What golf clubs and ball does Xander Schauffele use? Our in-depth review of what’s in the bag of the seven-time PGA Tour winner, Olympic Gold medallist and Ryder Cup star for 2024.
The 2024 PGA Tour season is barely underway and Xander Schauffele has been a roll away from victory already with three top 10s in his first four events. The Callaway staffer, who is now a Descente ambassador, had eleven top-10 finishes in 2023, including a top-20 finish at all four Majors in 2023.
The Californian was runner-up twice in the and came close to some big paydays as he finished second at the Wells Fargo and was beaten in a playoff at the Tour Championship by fellow Ryder Cup star Viktor Hovland.
For Xander, his last win came in 2022 at the Genesis Scottish Open which was his first Rolex Series title and came just weeks after his victory at the 2022 Travelers Championship.
Schauffele, who’d also won the JP McManus Pro-Am event at Adare Manor, was in imperious form at The Renaissance Club as he won by one shot over fellow American Kurt Kitayama.
The American had waited three years for another solo title before his win at the Travelers, although he did win the Zurich Classic of New Orleans alongside Ryder Cup teammate Patrick Cantlay earlier in 2022.
The 29-year-old, who won the men’s golf gold medal at the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo, is still on the hunt for a victory after a winless 2023 even though he managed to rack up just over $8.4 million in winnings for the season.

What putter does Xander Schauffele use?
Xander Schauffele uses an Odyssey Toulon Prototype 7CH Putter

We loved the bold and simple alignment spots and sightlines, and our test pro was particularly impressed with how the two black lines that run from the top edge to the back-flange show when the sole’s flat on the ground and your eyes are correctly aligned above the ball. The #7 head also comes in a red paint job for those looking to jazz things up.

What golf ball does Xander Schauffele use?
Xander Schauffele uses a Callaway Chrome Soft X LS golf ball
Best premium golf balls to aid alignment and visability
All three balls are designed to offer distance off the tee by reducing spin while delivering impressive spin and control around the greens. The Chrome Soft is a premium golf ball aimed at golfers with moderate swing speeds, whereas the Chrome Soft X and Chrome Soft X LS are targeted toward tour players and better players. Therefore there is a premium option for a wide range of golfers.
Making the Chrome Soft range of golf balls an option for more golfers is the addition of alignment aids and visibility assistance. My personal favorite is the 360° Triple Track which makes putting much more straightforward.
If you prefer a slightly softer ball with lower compression (slightly cheaper too) then take a look at the Callaway ERC Soft golf balls.
