Quick Answer
Bud Cauley plays a Titleist GTS2 driver, Titleist U-505 irons, Titleist Vokey Design SM11 wedges, a Scotty Cameron GOLO 7 S1 Tour Prototype putter, and the Titleist Pro V1x ball, as recorded in the August 2026 bag snapshot. The driver is built with a Fujikura Ventus Black 6 X shaft.
Bud Cauley played his college golf at Alabama, where he was a multiple-time All-American, and turned professional in 2011. He earned PGA Tour status that year through non-member earnings rather than qualifying school, a route very few players have taken. Serious injuries from a 2018 car accident cost him years of competitive time, and his return to the PGA Tour came by way of the Korn Ferry Tour. The bag reads Titleist top to bottom. A GTS2 driver at 8 degrees sits at the lofted-down end of what tour players carry, with a Ventus Black 6 X in it. The long end of the iron set is built in stages, a U505 utility at 3, a T250 at 4, then 620 MB blades from 5 through 9, with Ventus Black HB in the utility and Dynamic Gold S300 through the rest. A Scotty Cameron GOLO 7 S1 Tour Prototype and a Pro V1x complete a setup with no competing logos anywhere in it.
