Michael Block is the PGA of America Head Professional at Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club in California who became a household name at the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill, finishing T15 as a club pro and holing out for ace on the 15th during the final round alongside Rory McIlroy. The performance earned him an exemption into the 2024 PGA Championship and turned a lifelong teaching pro into one of the more recognizable club professionals in the modern game. The Qi4D driver at 9 degrees runs a Ventus Black VeloCore+ 5 X, a stout, low-spin build consistent with a player who fights the left side. The long game leans on a TaylorMade P-UDI 4-iron on a Tour AD DI Hybrid 85 X shaft rather than a utility wood or hybrid, and the mid and short irons are TaylorMade Tour Preferred MC blades from 5 through 9 on Project X 6.5. Rolling duties fall to an Odyssey White Hot 2-Ball, one of the most enduring mallet designs in the game.

Bag History
1 snapshots tracked, 2026
The 2026-05-15 setup is the only bag on record for Block in the database. What stands out is the traditional club-pro sensibility of it: a full run of muscleback blades from 5 through 9, a driving iron in place of a hybrid, and a White Hot 2-Ball that has been in production in some form for over two decades.
