One Brand Only. For Everything.

Recommended Posts

If you asked me a year ago I would definitely would have said Taylor Made but now, NO WAY. I absolutely hate Taylor Made and all their equipment. The weird thing is that I don't really have a good reason but I just hate them. Can't stand looking at their clubs and I would NEVER hit a TM club unless I got a BIG BIG BIG CHECK.

I love Ping as a brand due many reasons as some of you mentioned above but I am going to say Titleist. I am absolutely in love with my irons, wedges and putter. I do have a Titleist 909D2 driver too that I am probably going to put in play when I get time to change shafts in my drivers.

My hybrid and 3wood are Ping i15 and I love them too but I think it may be the shaft. I mean if I would have a 909 hybrid and 909 3wood I think I would have liked them almost as much.

My Rapture V2 driver isn't a bad driver! Thats for sho

Woods: Titleist 909F2 13,5 w/ UST AXIVCore Tour Red Series stiff 79g and Titleist 909F2 18,5 w/ UST AXIVCore Tour Red Series stiff 79g

Wedges: Titleist Vokey Wedges Tour Chrome 54.08 and 60.04

I owuld go Callaway or Titleist.
Both have great putter lines, irons and woods. Wedges would lean towards Titleist.
Could do Taylormade if pushed ( I love their fairway woods).

PING equipment... Nike clothes though.

Titleist for equipment....

J. Crew for clothes. C'mon guys....last thing you want to do on the golf course is LOOK like a golfer.

Nike....
Adidas.....
Callaway........all they do is make you look like a golfer.

Go Banana Republic or J Crew. The goal....look like a guy who just came from lunch and decided to play.

Honestly I like the fit/feel and the dri-fit capability that Nike offers. I don't buy it to just look the part. I agree BR polos are fine except when you play on a hot summer day.

Callaway, Taylormade, and Titleist. Wouldn't really matter because they all have at least one weakness.

Strengths and weaknesses for me:

Callaway - Strengths are woods, irons, wedges, putters, bags. Weaknesses are balls, apparel, shoes.

Taylormade - Strengths are woods, irons, wedges, balls, bags, apparel, shoes. Weakness is putters.

Titleist - Strengths are irons, wedges, putters, balls, bags, apparel, shoes. Weakness is woods.

If I had to pick a TOTAL package I'd go TaylorMade / Adidas.

I've been loyal to Titleist (irons and wedges) for a number of years. Still play AP2s but considering something more forgiving and am looking at R9s. Can't get away from TaylorMade drivers. They are the best and now I'm playing R9 fairways, too. My wedges are all Nike, beginning with the original Nike Forged but I could go to the new FxT or TP Z-cutters if need be.

Adidas just came out with a premier line of golf clothing that is more old-school and the PENTA Ball is supposed to be sweet. (have not tried it as I've got 2-dozen ProV1x in the garage now).

The last line of Rossa AGSI putters was nice. I played one for a while and still own it but am currently playing YES! Nicky.

That is a tough one... If I say cleveland can I include Srixon? If so I would go: DST tour 9.5; XLS 3 and 5 wood; srixon ZTX 3-PW; CG12 or 15 56 and 60 wedges; clevland classic 4.5 putter and the z star golf ball. If I cant do that its Titleist or Nike...

My problem is I like Titleist "stuff" and in fact use 'em for all but one club plus my golf bag and occasionally even a Titleist glove. I say "problem" because for the two most important items, ball and putter, nothing Titleist makes really suits me. As far as I can tell not a single Scotty Cameron putter is face balanced and no matter what I've tried otherwise, that's the only kind of putter that I ought to use given my stroke. Anyone know of a face-balanced Cameron? Preferably one that doesn't cost more than a round of golf at Pebble Beach?

And as for golf balls, nothing in the Titleist line comes close to taking that Bridgeston E5 out of my cold, dead hands. I've never in my life hit such short clubs into the Par 4's as since I simultaneously switched to the E5 and the weather turned warm. And it sure ain't cause my swing improved, because it has not!

I would go all PING:

G15 driver
G15 3 wood
I15 hybrid
i5 irons
i wedges

Putter is a tuff one for me, I love my Bettinardi and #9 head shape. PING makes a piper H, but I don't like it, would have to use one of the ZING models.

I am going to go with Warrior, their clubs and balls are crazy long, I am hitting a 56* into par 5's as my second shot. :rolleyes:

No in all seriousness probably TMAG, just the completeness of their lineup. Drivers, woods, hybrids, irons, wedges, Kia Ma putters, the penta or TP red, then the adidas apparel and shoes. Srixon/Cleveland, whom I love just don't have the putters for me, or the apparel/shoes. Nike, I don't like their shoes, balls, or woods (haven't tried the new stuff). Titleist, is a close second for me, but I prefer the Adidas apparel to FJ/Titleist stuff.

Powerbilt.

Nike or Titleist for me. Both are manufacturers that I've had a strong affiliation to for clubs in recent years and are the only companies with anything like the chance of putting 12 or more clubs of a single brand into my bag.

Up until 18 months or so ago I played a bag that was stocked with 12 Nike clubs (Ignite 410 driver, T60 3 wood, 2-PW in the Mk I blades and a raw Forged lob wedge) as well as playing their ball, glove and wearing a Nike-heavy wardrobe of shirts, caps, jumpers and shoes. 90% of my golf is also played with my tackle stuffed into a little 6"-topped Nike pencil bag.

Currently, after a bit of a swap shop of equipment and a return to an old set of irons, my bag has 11 or 12 Titleist clubs in it for the most part. I also wear a Titleist Players glove again and proudly sport a pair of FJ Classics when I'm in a white shoe mood. I haven't ditched my Nike ball for a Pro V1 yet though, nor has Scotty Cameron given me a reason to use one of his Ansers over my old Ping one. There's also little chance of my old Nike spoon going anywhere, so although I'm happily sporting a Titleist-heavy bag of equipment I'm afraid the prospect of an [i]all-Titleist[/i] bag is slim. I'm also sticking with Nike clothing and that little Nike carry bag (or an old Ping L8+ when it's wet), so a top-to-toe Titleist/FootJoy ensemble is off to a a non-starter.
