His current driver of choice is the Ping G430 LST; another driver, the Fujikura Ventus Blue 6 S shaft, is a common choice among the players. It is proven to have a good balance after the strike as its elevation is up to 10 degrees. He was previously seen using the Titleist 816H2 hybrid, the TSi2 model in the Aldila Tour Green shaft.

Ian Poulter is usually seen carrying three Titleist Vokey wedges in his bag. These were SM9 models with a 60-degree Vokey WedgeWorks design. The choice of the ball is common among many professionals. The Titleist Pro V1x ball offers a higher trajectory and increased spin.

His putter choice has been changing over the years. After using the Odyssey Stroke Lab 7 model for a longer span, he switched to a Scotty Cameron Phantom X 11 Prototype in March 2021. This putter also helps in gaining the deviation from the traditional pattern putters.

Last, the irons start with the Titleist T200 4-iron, followed by a Titleist T100 5-iron. It also includes the Titleist 718 AP2 irons from 6-iron down to the pitching wedge. They are mainly chosen, in particular, to gain more control over the strokes.
