If Bobby Jones was playing in 2023, what brand of equipment would he be using?

[Kai Slater]

What do you all think that Bobby Jones would be playing today or who would his main equipment deal be with IF he were playing in 2023 and decided to turn pro?  How about some of the other old time greats of golf?

 

I have the impression that Jones might have been a Titleist man through the bag.

Exactly.  He designed a set of irons with Victor East that were primitive muscle backs.  Later he had his own signature line of clubs, which incidentally President Eisenhower used and would not change.  There is a story somewhere about that.

Edel wedges with "BobJ Playa 4 life" on them

PXG Gen5 T irons

Callaway UW

Stealth driver and 3 wood

Yes Tracy putter

 

Bag deal with Rocket Mortgage

I think he would be a Titleist guy from Top to Bottom no ask me what irons would Ben Hogan play, would it be his or Callaway

If Bobby Jones were playing in 2023, he would resurrect the Spaulding company since he designed clubs for Spaulding in the 1930's.

If he turned pro he would play whoever paid him the most.

He'd be playing callaway since they bought Spaulding in the early 2000s and then sold them..keeping all key patents.

[Fuscinator]

He'd be always borrowing my backup bag.

[MountainKing]

Northwestern woods and irons and Pinnacle golf balls

[NoTalentLefty]

At his age ? Probably just a putter

[SwingMan]

His own brand

Good one and, I agree, I can totally see this scenario.  Bobby Jones, his long fluid swing, with a Paradym off the tee; an Apex UW and maybe one of the Apex iron iterations.

Mizuno. Mizuno USA is based in Ga.

I had an "AlumiPowered" 2 iron my uncle gave when I first stearted playing. It was a nice club.

[Hawkeye77]

I think he's still dead . . .
