We take a look at the Titleist clubs the 33-year-old has in play this season

Byeong Hun An WITB

Byeong Hun A won the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth in 2015 to become only the second player in history to win the U.S Amateur and the British PGA Championship, after Arnold Palmer.

He won the U.S amateur title in 2009, at just 17-years-old, becoming the youngest-ever winner. The South Korean has since gone on to have a stellar career on the PGA Tour, recording fiver runner-up places.

Still seeking his first professional win in the States, Ben An has came to within a whisker of his maiden victory, losing in three play-offs. Most recently, he missed out on the Sony Open title in Hawaii.

An is a Titleist staff player and carries nearly a full bag of Titleist equipment. So let’s have a look at the full Byeong Hun An WITB rundown…

A look inside Byeong Hun An’s bag

Byeong Hun An (also known as Ben An) has the brand new Titleist GT4 driver in play, having upgraded earlier this year.

From here his bag gets rather unusual. The European Tour winner doesn’t have any fairway woods in his bag, instead opting to carry multiple driving irons. He does have a Callaway Apex UW which he adds into his bag at certain events.

Rather impressively, he games a Titleist U505 1-Iron, which has to be one of the more unusual clubs in play on tour. He then moves into a Titleist T200 3-iron and quickly into the Titleist T150 model in his 4 and 5-iron.

The South Korean rounds out one of the most mixed combo sets on tour by using Titleist 620 MB’s from six iron down to 9-iron.

He carries three Titleist Vokey SM10 wedges a 48° instead of a pitching wedge and then a 52°, 56°. He also has a 60° in a bespoke Titleist Vokey Wedgeworks model.

His putter of choice is a L.A.B Mezz.1 Max although he has been seen tinkering with a Scotty Cameron T-11 Prototype recently. Both putters are long broomstick models, he moved to this longer style of putter in 2023 as he felt it takes his hands out of the stroke and allows him to putt more consistently.

He rounds out his set-up with the Titleist Pro V1x golf ball.

About the author

Max Mcvittie

A bit of a late bloomer to the game of golf, Max fell in love with the sport when he attended Saturday coaching sessions down at his local golf club after being inspired by friends and family members.

Max has remained a member of Eden Golf Club in Carlisle for a number of years now as he looks to get his handicap down into single figures. Most of his golfing career has been spent battling a permanent slice off the tee, which has led to some ugly rounds.

Having studied at the University of Sunderland, Max is starting out his dream career in sports journalism. During his time at university, he picked up valuable work experience at Reach PLC, BBC Radio Cumbria and GiveMeSport, whilst also getting work published in the Teesside Live. He also spent time working at a local weekly newspaper, Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser, as a general news reporter partially covering some local sport just north of the border in Langholm.

Max has just started his journey with the NCG working as the assistant equipment editor. He looks forwarded to reviewing the latest golf equipment, taking up an interest in reviews when buying his first golf club, a Cleveland RTX wedge.

With his bag not going under too many changes throughout the last few years, Max carries an M3 driver, Titleist GT3 Fairway Wood, M2 hybrid, a set of M2 irons, Callaway Jaws wedges and a TaylorMade Spider putter. And yes, Max is a bit of a self-proclaimed TaylorMade fan boy.
