TINKERER AT HEART

At 17, I discovered single-length clubs. My coach, Mike Schy, and I grinded down a bunch of shaft flexes and clubs to build my first set. Then David Edel built my set for my amateur career. With Cobra's support, I'm proud of our new one-length irons.

DRIVER

SPECS: Cobra King LTD Pro, 7.8° (Project X Hzrdus Black 85 shaft, tipped 1 inch, X-flex, 44.5 inches). This is the lowest-lofted driver I've ever played. It has helped reduce my spin rate while maintaining an ideal launch angle.

FAIRWAY WOOD

SPECS: Cobra King LTD 3/4, 12° (Project X Hzrdus Black 85 shaft, X-flex, 44 inches). I always had a difficult time finding a consistent 3-wood. The versatility with this club has really benefited my game.

IRONS

SPECS: Utility iron: Cobra King 3, 39.5 inches. 4- through pitching wedge: Cobra King Forged One Length (all 37.5 inches, Project X LZ 6.0 shafts, JumboMax XL grips). Cobra brought these one-length clubs to market in the fall. I spent two weeks with the R&D team to offer my insight on these irons I'm using.

PUTTER

SPECS: Edel The Brick, 34.5 inches, 2° loft 335 grams. I had used this exact prototype putter designed specially by David Edel since 2014. But I recently changed to sidesaddle; though I still love the look of this.

WEDGES

SPECS: Cobra King Versatile Grind (50°, 55° and 60°, KBS Hi-Rev X shafts, 37.5 inches). Each wedge has a special stamp on it to make it fun (Fitty-five and Fitty). The 60-degree (pictured) has a unique look, too. The swingweights and lengths are the same as my irons.

WORKING IT

Given my love of physics, the Cobra tour reps stamped a sequence of symbols that spell out: "Do work" on my 60-degree.

TIP OF THE CAP

If you see me practicing without my signature Hogan-esque cap, it's because I wear it only for tournament rounds. But I always carry this headcover.

SCIENCE GUY

My yardage book marks my achievements and has my initials. It also holds my vector-putting scale, which helps me putt according to the grade of topography.
