Quick Answer

Derek Hitchner plays a PING G440 LST driver, PING Blueprint S irons, PING S159 wedges, a PING Anser putter, and the Titleist Pro V1x ball, as recorded in the September 2026 bag snapshot. The driver is built with a Fujikura Ventus TR Black 6 X shaft.

Derek Hitchner plays professional golf without a major championship on the record, and the verified career file stops there. No signature victories, no tour titles, nothing beyond current competitive status that the data supports. That leaves the bag to do the talking. The PING G440 LST at 9 degrees runs a Fujikura Ventus TR Black 6 X, a low-spin pairing that rewards speed and gives back very little to a lazy release. The irons are PING Blueprint S from 4-iron through pitching wedge, a full blade set on True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100, which is as much static shaft weight as anyone carries at this level. The putter is a PING Anser. Read the head stamps in order and the pattern is plain: driver, irons, putter, all PING, with Titleist entering only at the ball with a Pro V1x. PING is the only driver brand the record has ever shown for him.

Bag History

1 snapshot tracked, 2026

The database holds a single snapshot, dated 2026-09-13, and that is the entire equipment record for Hitchner. What it shows is a one-brand long game, PING driver, PING blades, PING Anser, with a Titleist Pro V1x as the lone outside product. With no prior bag on file, nothing in this setup qualifies as a change, and the X100 shafts through a 4-iron blade set are the detail worth tracking going forward.
