<\/p>\n Finch is still a Golf Monthly Top 50 coach and we recently caught up with him on a visit to Pinehurst courtesy of Golf Pride to run through the clubs and ball in his bag for the 2025 season and the start of the 2026 season too.<\/p>\n You may like<\/p>\n WATCH: Peter Finch runs through the clubs and ball in his bag<\/p>\n Driver<\/p>\n Starting with the big stick and cruising at 120 mph of clubhead speed, Finch opts for the Titleist GT3 driver<\/a> in 9\u00b0 of loft in the D1 setting with Mitsubishi Tensei 1k Black 75 TX shaft.<\/p>\n \u201cIt’s a little bit shorter as well,” Finch says. “I was swinging hard enough and hitting the ball far enough that I just wanted a tiny bit more control.<\/p>\n “But with a slightly heavy shaft, slightly shorter shaft, it’s almost just reminding myself that I don’t need to swing too hard.”<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n Finch used to hit a fade on most holes but has been partial to a draw more recently having switched into Titleist equipment and the GT3, widely regarded as one of the best Titlest drivers<\/a> ever made.<\/p>\n \u201cI’ve been trying to draw it a lot more this year, so I was always a fade ball flight pretty much all my life. And then this year, switched to something a little bit more shallow. I just wanted to see a draw because I couldn’t really hit a draw that consistently.<\/p>\n “If you look at some of the best drivers in the world, your Rorys and your Brysons, and so on. The longest drivers will generally still draw it.”<\/p>\n You may like<\/p>\n Mini Driver<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n Rather than using a three-wood, Pete opts for a Titleist GT280 Mini driver, one of the best mini drivers<\/a> in the game, with the same shaft make and model as his driver, in a slightly heavier weight.<\/p>\n “I looked at my stats last season, and I’m pretty sure it was only five times that I hit my three wood,” Finch explains.<\/p>\n “This GT280 has been my favorite club this year. It’s just so good. It’s a great option off the tee, and I can still hit it off the fairway. It goes about 270 yards carry but I can get a little bit more out of it if I want to, and I can also kinda hit this beautiful little 250-yard cut as well.”<\/p>\n Hybrid<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n Next in the bag, Finch has a Titleist GT3 hybrid<\/a> in 19\u00b0, which he uses more than you might think given the trend of hybrids being phased out on tour<\/a> in favor of high lofted fairway woods.<\/p>\n “There’s there’s very few clubs in the bag, which I I could tinker with and I could change, but that’s not going anywhere.”<\/p>\n Irons<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n In his irons, Finch uses the Titleist T150 irons<\/a> in 4-PW with Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts, which we recently put in our Mount Rushmore of golf components<\/a>.<\/p>\n “If you’re playing with slightly stronger lofts than what is deemed conventional, the worry is you’re going to have a lack of spin. But for me, when I tested these, and against just a normal T00 iron<\/a> the numbers were very similar.<\/p>\n “So I was like, why don’t I just play something which is probably a little bit more forgiving as well? So I netted out on these.”<\/p>\n Wedges<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n In his scoring clubs, Pete uses Titleist Vokey SM10 wedges<\/a> in 49\u00b0 in 10F, 54\u00b0 in 14F and 60\u00b0, the latter having a raw finish versus the chrome on this other wedges.<\/p>\n “They just gave me a raw in the 60,\u00b0 and I was kinda like, yeah I like the look of it.”<\/p>\n He has them stamped with names of characters from Lord of the Rings.<\/p>\n Putter<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n For his flat stick, Pete chops and changes a bit but is currently in a Scotty Cameron Phantom 9. He has an interesting story about his Golf Pride Pro Only grip…<\/p>\n “It’s kind of like a no taper design with a heavy ridge along the back, almost to the point where it felt like it was an error in design. It felt too sharp, and it felt too the ridge was too much. But I started putting with it and I felt like I could square this up so easily.”<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n Ball<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n Finch uses the 2025 Titleist Pro V1<\/a> as his ball of choice.<\/p>\n “I like the softer feel, just a bit more distance versus Pro V1x ball<\/a> for me and a slightly lower flight. When I get the Pro V1x, I can I can smash it, but I hit the ball a lot higher this year, and the X was just a bit a bit too much. With Pro V1, I can just control a little bit more.”<\/p>\n Grips<\/p>\n \n (Image credit: GMS)<\/p>\n![\"Peter](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/GqH4jWkrCXY8GkhpYiigvJ.jpg\")
