2015 US Open Throwback - Justin Spieth - What’s in the bag?

Jordan Spieth’s rise to golfing superstardom reached another level at the 2015 U.S. Open at Chambers Bay. Just two months after winning the Masters, he doubled down with a gritty, composed performance, becoming the youngest player since Bobby Jones in 1926 to win both the Masters and U.S. Open in the same year.

Spieth’s win wasn’t just about mental toughness — his bag was built around control, precision, and clutch putting. Let’s take a closer look at the tools he used to claim his second major at just 21 years old.

Driver: Titleist 915D2 (9.5°)

Spieth’s driver at the time was the Titleist 915D2, paired with an Aldila Rogue Black 60 TX shaft. The 915D2 was known for its forgiveness and strong ball speeds, thanks to the Radial Speed Face design. For Spieth, it provided stability off the tee, keeping him in play on a course that punished wayward drives.

While not the longest hitter in the field, Spieth’s ability to find fairways under pressure was a key part of his U.S. Open success.

Fairway Wood: Titleist 915F (15°)

The Titleist 915F fairway wood, fitted with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 7 X shaft, gave Spieth a reliable option when driver wasn’t the play. The 915F was praised for its high launch and workable flight, offering control from the tee and fairway.

At Chambers Bay, with its firm, linksy layout, having a fairway wood you could trust was vital — and Spieth leaned on this club when he needed precision.

Irons: Titleist 712U (3) & Titleist 714 AP2 (4–9)

Spieth’s long iron of choice was the Titleist 712U utility iron (3), matched with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 105 X shaft. The 712U was designed for penetrating ball flight, ideal for windy conditions like those at Chambers Bay.

From 4-iron down to 9-iron, Spieth gamed the Titleist 714 AP2s. These irons are famed for their balance of forgiveness and feel — compact enough for precision shot-making, but stable enough to handle pressure. With Project X 6.0 shafts, they gave Spieth the control he needed to attack pins without losing consistency.

Wedges: Titleist Vokey SM5 (46°, 52°, 56°, 60°)

When it comes to Spieth’s game, wedges have always been crucial. At the U.S. Open, he carried a full set of Titleist Vokey Design SM5s, covering every yardage and short-game scenario.

The SM5s were versatile, offering plenty of spin and control, and Spieth used them to great effect. His ability to get up and down — and hole crucial putts after — was a decisive factor in holding off Dustin Johnson and Louis Oosthuizen on the final day.

Putter: Scotty Cameron 009 Prototype

No WITB for Jordan Spieth is complete without mentioning the putter: his Scotty Cameron 009 Prototype. This flatstick has been in his bag for the majority of his career, and it was magic at Chambers Bay.

Spieth led the field in putting average for the week, sinking countless clutch birdies and nerveless par saves. From the 20-footer on the 16th hole to the steady two-putt at the last, the putter was the difference.

Final Thoughts

Spieth’s 2015 U.S. Open win wasn’t about brute strength; it was about composure and execution. His Titleist setup, from the 915 driver to the trusty Titleist AP2 irons and SM5 wedges, gave him the control to keep mistakes off the card. And, of course, his Scotty Cameron 009 Prototype sealed the deal on the greens.

For golfers today, the lesson is clear: it’s not always about chasing the newest tech. Spieth’s bag in 2015 was full of dependable, tour-proven tools — the kind you can still find pre-owned at GolfClubs4Cash. If you want confidence in your long game, control in your irons, and magic in your short game, you’ll find plenty of inspiration from Spieth’s setup.
