When it comes to selecting your next set of clubs, or checking whether your current setup is the best for your individual game, it is likely that you would be better seeing what can be learned from the sets of the top LPGA Tour pros rather than their male pro colleagues.
Swing speeds of the average male golfer (93.4 mph) match much more closely to LPGA Tour players (94mph) than they do to the best players in the men’s game and although there is little else in common between the average golfer and the top women pros from a skill perspective, there is plenty to learn from their club choices.
Following on from our previous video about the most used drivers and irons, including the shafts the top 50 LPGA Tour players use, and after a lot of requests from our audience, in this video we take another look at the data to discover the most popular clubs they use throughout the rest of the bag, the most common club set up and what brands of club they most frequently chose.
To complete the bag too we also take a look at what golf balls this elite group use.

Interesting to note that as I look to return as a senior golfer after a 20 year absence the set up I've gone with is exactly the same as that chosen by the majority of the top 50 LPGA players.
Keep up the good work and I hope that they'll be the occasional piece of content that focuses on left handers and the unique challenges they face on and of the course. Merry Christmas.
Great video please carry on
I really enjoy your videos and am looking forward to seeing what you talk about in 2023.
As I reach 50 years old next month, I have switched to a completely old school bag of clubs like the ones I used as a junior growing up in Aberdeenshire. I am in Devon now and you would love my bag of MacGregor blades and a persimmon driver. I shall let you know if I maintain a 2 handicap using these old bats in 2023.
Merry Christmas and all the best in 2023
I was surprised about the ball choice as I thought Volvik would be up there but not mentioned.
Chella Choiand Pornanong Phatlum are sponsored by Volvik and famously play with the bright coloured balls. I am sure I have seen others.
The latest Rolex ranking list shows Ariya Jutanugarn has fallen to 73rd !!!
I have used Volvik Tour balls myself and could not tell them apart from ProV1's and Chromesofts.
It's not surprising at all that PXG gained popularity so quickly on the LPGA tour – their focus on hollow-headed player's shaped distance irons is exactly what would give a female professional golfer, looking for a little more distance, an advantage over her rivals – whereas, on the PGA Tour, extra iron distance isn't a usually a desired – outside of a driving iron.
