Sepp Straka's Driver - Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond

Straka has been using a Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond driver, set at a nine-degree loft angle and installed with a shaft of Fujikura Ventus Blue 2024 6X.

Sepp Straka's Fairways - Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond

Straka uses two fairways, a three-wood and a five-wood, both being the Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond fairways. However, their shafts vary; the five-wood is angled at 15 degrees with a Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Red 80 TX shaft, while the seven-wood is angled at 20 degrees with a Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Orange 80 TX.

Straka's iron setup includes Srixon ZXi5 four-iron to five-iron and Srixon ZXi7 six-iron to nine-iron, all installed with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts. According to Golf Monthly, the most alluring aspects for golfers are the cavity-back iron ZXi5's powerful appearance and feel, high forgiveness, and amazing distance output.
