Tony Finau is a multiple PGA Tour winner and one of the biggest, most athletic hitters in golf, and he games a near-full Ping setup with a couple of trusted exceptions. His 2026 what-is-in-the-bag is built around Ping blades and a low-spin driver, the setup of a powerful player who values control. Below is his verified bag, club by club, followed by the story behind the key gear.
The story behind Tony Finau's bag
Finau's bag is almost entirely Ping, with around 11 of the brand's clubs in play, but the exceptions tell a story. He keeps an old Nike Vapor Fly Pro 3-iron as his driving iron years after Nike stopped making clubs, adds a Callaway 3-wood and plays a Titleist ball. It is the mark of a player who trusts his main brand but still picks the best club for a few key slots.
Driver and fairway wood
Finau games a Ping G440 LST driver at 9 degrees set to about 7.75, the low-spin model, with a Fujikura Ventus Black VeloCore+ 7 X shaft; for the highly forgiving model in the same Ping family, see our Ping G430 Max 10K driver review. His one non-Ping wood is a Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond 3-wood at 14 degrees, a strong-lofted fairway he can flight down off the tee and hit into long par 5s.
Irons
Finau plays Ping Blueprint T irons from the 4-iron through pitching wedge, a compact players' iron built for control and shot-shaping, on KBS C-Taper shafts. At the top of the set he keeps an old Nike Vapor Fly Pro 3-iron as a driving iron on a Graphite Design hybrid shaft, a club he trusts enough to keep years after Nike left the equipment business. It is a demanding, control-first setup for an elite ball striker.
Wedges
Around the greens Finau carries Ping S259 wedges in 50 and 56 degrees, plus a Titleist Vokey WedgeWorks prototype in the 60-degree lob, all on Nippon Modus3 shafts. Keeping most of his wedges in the Ping family while adding a specialist Vokey lob gives him the grinds he wants for his highest, softest greenside shots.
Putter
On the greens Finau games a Ping putter, keeping his bag almost entirely within the Ping family as a longtime staff player. Sticking with a single brand from driver to putter gives him a consistent feel and look, and reflects the trust he places in his equipment.
Golf ball
Finau plays the Titleist Pro V1, the softer, all-round tour ball trusted by more professionals than any other. It is one of the few non-Ping items in his bag; see our Titleist Pro V1 review for how it performs for the rest of us.
What you can learn from Finau's setup
The lesson from Finau is a balanced one: a near-full single-brand bag gives a consistent feel, but he still picks the best club for a few slots, keeping an old Nike driving iron and a Callaway 3-wood because they work. His Blueprint T blades are for the best ball strikers, so most amateurs should game a more forgiving iron, but his driving iron at the top of the set is a genuinely useful option for players who struggle with a long iron or high 3-wood.
