Thitukul has a really cool setup when it comes to her specs, and it jumps out at you immediately when you see the swing weights on both her driver and 3-wood. Those clock in at just C4.4 and C6, respectively!
Yes, at just 5-foot-4, Thitkul is on the smaller side of LPGA Tour players, yet swing weights don’t really creep down on the LPGA below D0 or C9 too often. Thitikul’s driver is 5.5 points below that, and what’s stranger is that her next club, a Callaway Apex UW, is D1.5, and then all of her irons and wedges spec out to D2, a much more typical swing weight.
Then for her irons, Thitikul has a very strong lofted combo set of Callaway X Forged Star and X Forged ’25 irons. You’d be forgiven for not recognizing the X Forged Star iron. They’re a larger chassis size than the standard model and available only in the Asian market, making them a good option for longer irons for ball speed retention.
Thitkul’s lofts toward this part of her bag may seem pretty tight too, with her UW at 19 degrees, 4-iron at 20.5 degree and 5-iron at 22.5 degrees. But loft is just a number at the highest levels like the LPGA Tour. The lofts might be tight, but they work for Thitikul because she’s able to hit the carry distances she needs.
The same can be said for her lie angles, which aren’t in progressive half-degree increments. Instead, some of her lie angles are the same from club to club and other jump by a degree or more. We saw this as well with U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun. Credit to the Callaway Tour team for working with Thitikul to optimize each individual club for the way she swings it and how she wants to see the ball fly.
With her wedges, Thikul also has a unique set of Shimada K 3001 steel shafts. The Japanese-made shafts are half-stepped and half-tapered and play at the same weight for each shaft length.
According to GOLF’s Jake Morrow, “The tapered part is meant to resist twisting at impact, particularly in bad lies like deep rough (great for greenside chipping) and the stepped makes it feel good in the hands.”
