Harry Hall reveals huge setup changes for Masters second round – including 2 drivers and a putter switch

Harry Hall made his Masters Tournament debut this week, but it didn’t go as planned. After an opening-round, 5-over 77 on Thursday at Augusta National, Hall had a pretty honest assessment of his game.

“I need to get a lot better,” Hall said.

After the blunt judgment of his first round out of the way, Hall went on to add he’s going to try some pretty drastic gear changes for round two.

“I’m going to change my driver,” Hall said. He went on to add, “I’m going to put two drivers in play tomorrow, different ones.”

Hall moved into a Ping G440 LST driver at Augusta, after previously playing a TaylorMade Qi4D LS while alternating it with a Titleist GT3 driver this season. It’s a potential combination of big sticks we could see for Friday.

“I fade the driver that I’ve got in the bag at the moment, and I was driving back to the mini just to draw it off the tee on some of these fairways,”

Hall said. “When you give up 30 yards, you’re not really being very aggressive.”

It wouldn’t be the first time someone’s gamed double-drivers at the Masters. Famously, Phil Mickelson played a pair of 9.5-degree Callaway Big Bertha Fusion FT-3 drivers. The difference: one was one inch longer (46 instead of 45 inches) and had different weighting to help Mickelson play a draw. With the two-driver strategy in play, Mickelson captured his second Masters title.

But back to Hall, he’s also going to make changes to the bottom end of his bag for Friday’s round.

“I’m putting a new putter in play and going to figure out on the range,” Hall added.

Hall has been searching for something on the greens. Despite ranking 29th on Tour in Strokes Gained: Putting, he’s seen a drop-off in form from last year, when he was the Tour’s third-best putter. Hall’s search resulted in testing TaylorMade’s Spider Tour X putter earlier in the season. He went back to his Odyssey O Works 1W putter for the first round though.

“Yeah, I didn’t putt very good today,” Hall said after losing 1.41 strokes on the greens during the first round. “I’ve been struggling with that putter, actually. I’ve used this for six years, and I’ve used a Spider for a couple of weeks in a row, and I tried to really give it a good chance to be in the bag this week. Just something about lining it up that isn’t quite as comfortable when the greens are really fast. It’s a bit slidey too, so yeah.”

It’s not the only change that Hall put into place to try to fit his game better for Augusta. After spending time with Bridgestone leading into the Masters, Hall decided to switch from the TOUR BX to the spinnier Tour B XS. But to his displeasure, it seems more needs to be done.

“I don’t think I spin my irons enough either,” Hall added. “I went into a spinnier ball this week, but I still, you know, can’t stop it on a dime like I need to. So I probably need to add off to my irons or do something to compete in these majors.”

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
