What’s in the bag with Callaway Golf ambassador Chance Taylor

Chance Taylor is far from the average golfer. He even admits that he was the one who made fun of people who put golf equipment online. All that changed when his first TikTok earned him a million views and 10,000 followers. Now a married man and father, Chance has turned his unique name into his business.

I had the opportunity to meet Chance at a golf game at Callaway during Players week this year and give him a little challenge. Can he hit all 14 clubs in his bag to a 140-yard par 3? Along the way, I stopped to ask Chance a few questions about his start in golf content and how he handles the things in his bag.

“It was by accident,” he said of his start. “I used to make fun of people posting content because I didn’t understand it at all. I was bored one night, and I said, ‘I’m going to send you a TikTok.’ I woke up the next day with like three-quarters of a million views, and by the end of the week I had almost 10,000 followers.”

After a friend told him he could make money doing it, the one-time golfer became a full-time content creator. Now a married man and father, he enjoys being able to travel with his family and be “a dad first and a content creator second.” He’s now a Callaway Golf ambassador with nearly 60,000 followers on Instagram, playing golf in his signature boots, camo cut-off shorts and a cropped t-shirt. It’s far from your average golf course, but one of the best is next.

What’s in the bag for the easy golfer?

When it came to talking about her bag, it was mainly about simplicity. Chance is one hell of a golfer, so there’s not much he’s not comfortable with, but one thing we’ve talked about a few times is being able to hit the ball high. This is something that ties into my game and something I talked about during the content of our Fully Fit journey. Using the equipment to launch the ball at a good high flight and then using skill to lower the flight is easier for me (and Chance) than lifting the ball when needed.

A combination of driver and mini driver

For a one-two punch at the top of the bag, Chance sports Callaway’s Quantum Triple Diamond driver and the Elyte Mini Night program — the former has a carry of about 320 yards while the latter lands at 285 yards. It’s rare to see Chance do anything off the tee but post in full. The mini also allows him to make shots.

In my tournament, he didn’t miss the 140-yard green with driver, but he putt the mini by about 3 feet.

Speaking of Callaway Apex UT: “I have never been able to launch the iron in the air as I wish, I was in the super shoot (Callaway) hitting Dalton’s. [Joyce[ and just launchin’ that thing to the moon, so I chatted with ol’ Johnny Thompson and got one built up.” Never change, Chance. Never change.

‘I don’t know, I seen some tour guys startin’ to do it’

He also plays a combo set of irons, with a 4-iron and 5-iron in the Callaway Apex CB, and 7-iron through his trusty 11-iron in the Callaway Apex MB.

“I don’t know, I seen some tour guys startin’ to do it. I had never tried it before. I was playing blades 4-iron through pitching wedge and played around with it. It’s a little easier to hit these up in the air.” I did suggest to him that he may want to play a full set of Callaway TCB irons, but we’ll get an update from Chance down the road and see what tinkering I’ve unlocked.

DYNAMIC SOLE DESIGN FOR ENHANCED TURF INTERACTION
These irons feature a dual chamfer on the leading edge to cut through the turf more efficiently. A trailing edge chamfer provides relief from the turf after contact for enhanced feel. This Dynamic Sole Design maintains speed through the turf and promotes consistent contact on all shots.

For the record, from the successful shot of the mini driver all the way down to the 11-iron, Chance missed only with the 7-iron. “Shoot yeah,” as Chance would say.

He then finishes off the bottom of the bag with some Callaway OPUS SP wedges, which have been given the full Anthony Taranto treatment.

Full send with the putter

This was not my idea, but I’m sure glad we did it. Chance REALLY wanted to try to hit this green with his putter. An Odyssey Ai-One #7 to be exact. Which he pointed out, he wasn’t rolling super well at the time and was going to be getting a new putter anyhow, so going full send off a tee wasn’t exactly a worry. Chance went full Tin Cup on this one, and after seven shots, stuck the putter to about 15 feet on the green before a final shot with the putter to see just how much side spin he could put on the ball. Answer, according to the Bushnell Launch Pro? 5300 rpms.

These Odyssey Ai-ONE putters feature our Ai-ONE insert which delivers more consistent ball speeds, even from off-center hits, leaving putts closer to the hole.
