Over the past couple of years, Grant Horvat’s popularity has skyrocketed. He’s now No. 2 in our YouTube golf channel rankings and is among the fastest-growing channels in the sports world.
Horvat is a former college golfer and has enough game to get a PGA Tour invite (though he turned it down). That makes his “what’s in the bag” more than just a curiosity to the many millions watching him.
With TaylorMade and Takomo deals playing prominent roles in his club decisions, Horvat has made more money than many Tour pros when it comes to gear endorsements.
Below we have listed out Horvat’s clubs and where they ranked on our most recent testing for each category.
Driver: TaylorMade Qi35 (9 degrees)
Shaft: Fujikura Ventus VeloCore+ Black 7 X
This year was a particularly poor showing for TaylorMade drivers. They’ve had strong performances in the past—but definitely not in 2025.
The TaylorMade Qi35 ranked No. 13 among 37 drivers in our overall driver testing. The other versions of the Qi35 (the LS, Max and Max Lite) were all well behind the standard Qi35.
3-wood: TaylorMade Qi35 (15 degrees)
Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Blue VeloCore+ 8 X
The TaylorMade Qi35 fairway wood was a standout in our testing, finishing as the overall runner-up. The only fairway wood ahead of it was the PING G440 Max.
No fairway wood performed better in the distance category, making this is a great option to get the ball in play off the tee without sacrificing too much yardage. It underwhelms in the accuracy and forgiveness metrics but is still among the top fairway wood options on the market because of its tremendous distance.
Hybrid: TaylorMade Qi35 (19 degrees)
Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Blue HB 9 X
The TaylorMade Qi35 hybrid is also the best for distance in the hybrid category, according to our 2025 testing.
While the Qi35 Max hybrid was the overall runner-up for hybrids, the standard Qi35 performed poorly in terms of shot dispersion. What you gain in distance is largely taken away by accuracy and forgiveness issues relative to other top hybrids on the market.
Irons: Takomo 201 (4-PW)
Shafts: KBS $-Taper 130
Takomo has not submitted for iron testing the past couple of years so we don’t have data for this model.
Their site calls the 201 model a “forged iron that feels soft, is workable and is super forgiving.” It retails for only $589, making this one of the more affordable offerings on the market.
Wedges: TaylorMade MG4 (50, 56, 60)
The Milled Grind 4 is a proven wedge. In 2024, it finished runner-up in our overall wedge testing behind just the PING S159. In 2025, the newer MG5 also finished runner-up. You can really trust TaylorMade in the wedge department.
While the MG4 is middle of the pack in the spin department, it shines in terms of accuracy and consistency.
Putter: L.A.B. Golf Oz.1 Broomstick
The L.A.B. Oz.1 captured top honors for best zero-torque putter of 2025. It was also ranked No. 1 for short putts.
There is not much more to add here. This L.A.B. is easily one of the best putters in the world. Horvat has a lot of success with it during his videos.

Not sure how current this is, looks like he’s gaming the Taylormade irons now. I mean he is sponsored by them so I would be surprised if he had other clubs. He mentioned that he is playing a standard length putter now and videos of him with the broomstick are older. He also mentioned playing the TP5 ball.
