    Three trips to the winner’s circle in 15 months... it's safe to say that Brand Ambassador Max Homa is playing some good golf.

    And one of the constants through all four of his wins? An all-Titleist setup.

    We had the chance to catch up with Max after his fourth PGA Tour title on Sunday to answer some of your questions on why it's in the bag. Keep reading to get the inside scoop from the two-time Wells Fargo Championship champ himself.

    Ask Max Homa - Why It's in the Bag

    Fast fact: Max Homa moved into the 2021 Pro V1 golf ball earlier this season at the Farmers Insurance Open, following a visit that week to the Titleist Performance Institute in nearby Oceanside, CA. “Max was looking for a little more height throughout the bag (versus the previous generation Pro V1 he was playing),” said Jeff Beyers, tour consultant for Titleist Golf Ball R&D. “With 2021 Pro V1 he was seeing that increase in peak height and the steeper angle of descent that he wanted. We went through a lot of clubs, he really liked the window, how consistently the ball was flying – and the numbers were right in line. The softer feel was also a big plus for him.”

    Hear from Max himself on why it's the right model for his game:

    A major key to Max's win on Sunday? His performance off the tee. In fact, he not only led the field in total driving last week at TPC Potomac, but on his 72nd hole, he gained 0.27 strokes on his final tee shot of the day - the most of any of his drives that week.

    Hear more about how he has dialed in his TSi3 driver off the tee.

    Take a deeper look at Max Homa's bag, and you'll count not one, not two, but three different Titleist iron models (and sometimes four, when he swaps out his 7-wood for a T200 utility iron). How's that for a T-Series trifecta?

    Hear the story on how this came to be from Max himself.

    Also in Max's bag - the #1 wedge on Tour. Check out the different grinds he has on his four new Vokey Design SM9 wedges.

    One of the tougher questions Max got from Team Titleist? What is his favorite Scotty - his Phantom X 5.5 Tour prototype or... his dog Scotty. Spoiler alert... Scotty the dog wins this match. 

    But when it comes to putters - Max puts his trust in his Phantom X mallet. Hear more on why he made the switch to this model:

    The one piece of equipment that Max used on every shot over 72 holes at TPC Potomac? His tried and trusted Pro V1. Hear what he had to say about the importance of getting fit into the right model for your game.

    Heavenwood or 7-wood? For Max - these two words are synonymous when asked what is his favorite club in the bag. Hear why:

    With four wins under his belt, all sights are set on next week at the PGA Championship as Max looks to etch his name on the Wanamaker Trophy for the first time. Hear why he'll put his trust in Titleist next week at Southern Hills:

    Thanks again to Max and to our Instagram community who submitted questions!
