Quick Answer
Ben James plays a Titleist GT3 driver, Titleist U500 irons, Titleist Vokey Design SM11 wedges, TaylorMade Spider Tour T7 and TaylorMade Spider Tour putters, and the Titleist Pro V1x ball, as recorded in the September 2026 bag snapshot. The driver is built with a Fujikura Ventus Black 7 X shaft.
Ben James came out of Milford, Connecticut, and became one of the most decorated American amateurs of his class at the University of Virginia, where he stacked up collegiate wins, ACC honors and All-America recognition. He won the 2022 Junior PLAYERS Championship and represented the United States in Walker Cup competition. The iron setup is sorted by job rather than by catalog: a Titleist U500 at the 4, a 2019-vintage T100 at the 5, and 620 CB blades through 6 to 9, with AMT Tour White X100 in the two long irons and Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 120 underneath the short ones. Everything from the GT3 driver at 9 degrees in the D2 SureFit setting down to the Pro V1x is Titleist, and Titleist is the only driver brand on record here. The putter slot is the exception, and it is doubled up, with a TaylorMade Spider Tour T7 and a standard Spider Tour both logged.
