Driver, 3 and 5-wood

Rory McIlroy is one of the most successful golfers of his generation, and his equipment setup is as meticulously chosen as his swing. Rory held off Europe’s elite to claim his sixth European Order of merit title in Dubai. For the driver he uses a 9 degree TaylorMade Qi10, the low loft is designed to maximise a low and penetrating ball flight which Rory is excellent at. Rory’s fairway woods, the TaylorMade Qi10 3 wood and 5 wood, are essential components of his bag. These clubs are favoured by professionals for their versatility off the tee and fairway.

Rory uses a Fujikura Ventus Black 6X shaft in his driver, 8X in his 3 Wood and a 9X in his 5 Wood.
