Australian Golf Digest takes a detailed look at Elvis Smylie’s current equipment setup, breaking down every club and a few personal essentials he carries during the LIV Golf season.
Smylie starts at the top of the bag with a Titleist GT3 driver paired with a Ventus Blue shaft, before moving into a Ping 3-wood fitted with a matching Ventus profile to maintain consistency. His iron setup blends a Titleist T200 3-iron with T100 irons from 4 through 9, a combination he’s trusted for over a year and describes as “the bee’s knees.”
Around the greens, Smylie relies on a full set of Vokey SM11 wedges, carefully tuned to suit firm playing conditions. His 60-degree wedge features a low-bounce T-grind, allowing the leading edge to sit tight to the turf for precision shots when the ground firms up – a key adjustment for Australian courses.
The newest – and favourite – addition is a Scotty Cameron 009 GSS putter, which has quickly earned a permanent spot in the bag after an immediate impact on Smylie’s confidence on the greens. He also shares insight into a whippy training aid he uses during tournament weeks to improve sequencing and prevent rushing the downswing.
Rounding out the bag are hydration sachets, a tour-level golf ball and glove, and even a personal good-luck item, offering a glimpse into the balance between preparation, routine and personality at the highest level of the game.
