If You Were Offered a Staff Deal with any OEM Golf Company Which One Would You Pick?!

Titleist. Even though I really like my Callaway Apex irons and hybrid (and my W-grind SW), Titleist wins it on the putter and balls. and their long clubs are nice enough to get used to.

For me definitely Titleist...mostly for Vokey & irons. I'd need a "waiver" for Tm driver though

I've tried my best 3 times to use Titleist drivers...just can't get them to work

I'd probably go Callaway. Over my life I have tended to play Callaway and Titleist the most. Overall, I could game something in each category. I love Ping as well, but I don't get along with their woods and hybrids.

I would have to go with the company that makes my favorite irons as they feel the most personal in the bag outside of putters. For me it would have to be Bridgestone. Plus they make the best ball in the industry. I could make the woods work, which I find them to be incredibly underrated. Plus, that could free me up to use whatever putter I want which would have to be Bettinardi.

-Titleist hands down winner for me

-TaylorMade

-I would consider Callaway but there is no chance I'm touching the golf ball

-No other brand could pay me enough to use their equipment after these ones listed

Definitely Titleist. They make my favorite fairway woods, wedges, and putters. Plenty of great options in the iron category and with the TS wood line, nothing left on the table in terms of driver performance.

If I were to consider the quality and performance of a single company from driver, wood, irons, wedges, putter, and ball i think I would have to go with Titleist, TaylorMade, or Ping. I love my Mizunos but I'm not a fan of their drivers or woods from year to year. Titelist and TaylorMade seem to get it right year to year from driver through ball. Just my personal opinion.

I might give Wilson a whirl. Their newest irons are amazing and their wedge game is nothing to sneeze at overall, along with continued development in their drivers. As a safe bet, though, likely Callaway as I know I can get great irons, wedges, & woods along with tangential allowance for Odyssey putters mayhap?

That's what I was banking on. In this mythical fantasy world where I have companies scrambling to sponsor me, I'd want to resurrect Nike, through sheer force of my own awesomeness.

All these companies make outstanding products. But I'd have to choose based on driver, as just about everything else in the bag can replicate performance of another brand. For that reason I'd choose Taylormade or Callaway. Clearly the most popular of all our staffers and customers. Ping would come in a very close 3rd. You couldn't go wrong with any of those 3 from top to bottom. Now if ball was included, Taylormade without hesitation.

Toss up between Titleist or Taylormade for me! I know an all Titleist bag can be boring to look at sometimes, but it’s so damn classy you just wanna rep the black and red all day. TM also can’t go wrong with any of their gear, putters I can’t really ever see me playing since they lack any decent milled options barring Vault stuff.
