Inside Look At Bryson’s Driver For The Pro Long Drive Championship

In case you didn’t know, TOUR golfers and Long Drive players use very different equipment. At World Long Drive events, it’s not uncommon to see most driver heads at under 5 degrees of loft, and built to the maximum allowance of length at 48 inches.

For Bryson Dechambeau, this was very much the case, as Golf.com gave an inside look into his ‘long drive’ competition driver.

On TOUR Bryson has been seen reverting back to an older Cobra product, the King LTD Pro. Well, Dechambeau switched into the newest product for Long Drive, opting for a RadSpeed driver. Nice.

Dechambeau’s RadSpeed is, as you’d expect, much different than one you’d buy off the rack, or frankly even see on TOUR. At a loft of 4.5 degrees, and fitted with a custom 48 inch LA Golf shaft, this thing is a distance machine.

Dechambeau uses a 5.5 degree head and a much stiffer shaft on a daily basis, but the Long Drive competition called for some extra whip from a less stout shaft, as well as the reduced spin of the de-lofted head.

Would you ever game a ‘Long Drive’ set up in efforts to gain more distance? Let us know!

As a fellow lefty, keep fighting the good fight Connor. Looking for a new wedge currently and the RTX and T22 just coming in chrome for left handed is downright discriminatory against us lefties.
