Matti Schmid, currently on top of the leaderboard at the Charles Schwab Challenge, is looking for his first Tour win in his 79th start. After posting a bogey-free opening round, he celebrated it as his 15th career bogey-free round in 215 total rounds on the Tour. On this occasion, an excited Schmid said at the Colonial, “I feel like the game has been solid for a while. We did work. We always work on something. That’s just golf, but no, it was just a continuation of the solid play over the last couple of months.” The Colonial course may or may not work in his favor; however, here are the clubs keeping his gameplay strong in the 2025 season.
Let’s start with his driver first. The Regensburg native uses the Cobra Aerojet LS, which has a loft of 10.5° (with an adjustable option down to 10°). It is one of the most penetrating and consistently low-spinning drivers on the market, delivering remarkable speed potential. It also provides impressive stability and feel, making it one of Cobra’s most notable drivers to date. Schmid pairs this driver with a Mitsubishi Diamana DF 60 TX shaft, further enhancing his performance on the course. The Cobra Aerojet LS costs anywhere between $203 – $214.

Schmid pairs this 3-wood with an Aldila Tour Z RPG M5+ shaft to enhance his performance on the course. Complementing this, the 5-wood boasts a loft of 18°, also priced at $299, providing additional versatility and reliability for a variety of shots.
