Webb Simpson birdied five of his last seven holes to win the RBC Heritage for his second title of the 2019-20 PGA Tour season. Simpson continued his strong play with a set made up almost exclusively of Titleist equipment; the lone exception an Odyssey V-Line Tank Cruiser putter.
It was a combination of pinpoint iron play and a red-hot putter that allowed Simpson to build a lead he would never relinquish after rolling in a 14-foot birdie putt on 16. Simpson’s Odyssey putter is equipped with an arm-lock grip that rests against his forearm to add a layer of stability to the putter.
“It makes me feel like I’m setup similar to how I putted for 11 years with the belly putter,” Simpson said. “Confidence has so much to do with putting, so when I see the ball rolling pure on my line, it leads to more confidence and more made putts. That’s been the biggest thing.”
Here’s a look at Simpson’s entire setup:
Driver: Titleist TS3 (Mitsubishi Tensei AV 65TX shaft), 10.5 degrees
3-wood: Titleist TS2 (Mitsubishi Tensei CK 70TX shaft), 15 degrees
