Charles Howell III's Golf Clubs

Charles Howell III

Residence: Orlando, Florida
DOB: 20/06/1979

Charles Howell III grew up near Augusta National, home of the Masters, and was a member of Augusta Country Club which is adjacent to the dreaded Amen Corner. His next door neighbour introduced him to the game and he first broke 70 in a tournament at the age of 10 – at about the same time he started taking lessons from a golf coach you may have heard of - David Leadbetter. He read Business Management at Oklahoma State University and turned pro in 2000. Although he only has two PGA Tour titles to his name - the 2002 Michelob Championship at Kingsmill and the 2007 Nissan Open where he beat Phil Mickelson in a play-off - he is regarded by many as one the USA’s big golfing hopes. As of May 2007, he is 16th in the Official World Golf Rankings and 3rd on the US Money list with $2.5m banked already this year. Our biography photo of ‘CH3’ was taken in March 2007 and shows him using his 9.5 degree Callaway Big Bertha Fusion FT-5 at the World Golf Championships at Doral in Florida where he finished 16th.

2007	Honda Classic

March 1- 4, 2007. The Honda Classic was played at the PGA National Resort Champion Course, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida and won by Mark Wilson in a four-way playoff at the third extra hole. In beating Jose Coceres, Boo Weekley and Camilo Villegas, Mark Wilson finally secured his first PGA Tour victory after 111 starts, picking up a cool $990,000 for his efforts. Wilson had ended every year for the past 10 back at the PGA Tour’s qualifying School, but this win gives him Exemption through to 2010.

In Charles Howell III's bag...

In Charles's bag at the Honda Classic - where he finished 16th - are his Callaway X-Forged irons - and his Callaway X-Tour wedges with a vintage finish. Although the main headcover denotes an FT-i (that's Callaway's new square driver), according to CH3's own website, he uses a Big Bertha FT-5 9.5 degree, Callaway X Fairway 15 degree, and the new Odyssey Black Series putter.
