Winner's bag: What Charley Hoffman used to win the OHL Classic at Mayakoba
Charley Hoffman won the Mayakoba Classic with 13 Titleist clubs and ball. One of Hoffman's key weapons in Mexico was his Titleist 915D2 driver -- a club he ranked fifth in driving distance with at 295.1 yards.
A recent ball change also has proved fruitful for Hoffman. At the WGC-HSBC Champions in Shanghai Bubba Watson became the first player to win using Titleist's prototype 2015 Pro V1x ball. At the Mayakoba, Hoffman became the second. Hoffman winning with the ball seems appropriate given he was one of the early adopters, using it in the first week it came out in Las Vegas at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. "I immediately noticed the softer feel of the new Pro V1x," said Hoffman in Vegas. "I also tested it on TrackMan and the spin and performance on full iron shots were right where I wanted them to be. Overall, I saw improvement across the board."
