muskie Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Nothing more prestigious than having that titleist across your hat,having the blades in your bag with an initial stamp, and a Scotty Cameron with your name on it!

SPY VIP Tony Covey MGS Posted March 9, 2010 Author SPY VIP Share Posted March 9, 2010 Mizuno. I have a Bettinardi. I love the Irons, and i have never hit a driver but they get good reviews. Bettinardi putters are fantastic, but unfortunately Mizuno and Bettinardi have parted ways. If you check the Mizuno website, you'll find they don't have any putters listed right now. It's really a shame. The BC series is beautiful. MyGolfSpy is only major golf site that refuses advertising from large golf companies. With your support we can keep it that way.

SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 9, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted March 9, 2010 Titleist would be cool. Or Adams or mizuno or snakeyes or anyone who's gonna give me free clubs lol This may actually be the best answer for me too...

alpha_tot Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Adams! Best hybrids by far, amazing driver, good fwys, and those new black CBs look awesome. I don't think I'd say no to Ping, Mizuno, or Titleist either. I like bridgestone too... havent even hit any j38s yet, but I wouldnt mind playing j33 driver/fwy and j36 irons.

Golfware Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Man, that's a tough one. I'd probably go Callaway, especially with the new offering of the Diablo Forged irons. Heck, even without a staff deal, I might go Callaway!! FT-9 Tour driver, FW, FT-hybrids, Diablo Forged iron, JAWS wedges and Sabertooth putter!! Oh man, that would be sick!!

mudfish Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I'd have a tough time deciding, but I would have to say either Ping or Mizuno... or course I play neither now, so this is more based on desire than experience...

jamo Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Mizuno all the way. Not only do they make excellent irons, but their wedges are great as well, and the Bettinardi putters are on par with Scotties. My 14th club would be the driver, a Titleist or a Cleveland. I don't think Bettinardi makes putters for Mizuno anymore. Too bad, the black ones (forget the name) had an amazing feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addicted2Golf Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Personally, I've never been wowed or overly intrigued by any Ping products, but there is a lot to be said for their customer service and the loyalty of their customers. One of my dad's friends orders a brand new complete set every year or two and never even looks at another brand because he likes calling Ping and talking to their people about shafts and fittings, etc. If someone is thinking about gaming a Ping set and they have the means, I always recommend they go to the facility in Phoenix and go through their fitting process. If they do that then they will be a Ping customer for life.

TWShoot67 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 If you asked this a few years back I would have said Titleist all the way and who knows maybe I still would. But the more I think about it I would have to let them all wine N dine me as most of the OEM's are fairly equal. I'd rather just get paid for playing the woods I like best, then the irons and then the wedges and finally the putter and ball. So I would have a hard time saying just one OEM from head to toe. I mean now with Puma taking over Cobra..... well you see the dilemma, there's just too many OEM's for me to lock into one! Sorry! PS: 10 years ago I would never even include Cally in this conversation, but now they actually make some great equipment! Right now they have the best driver on Tour and those Proto irons are excellent, wedges by RC and putters not too shabby as well.I can still use my S2H2 3 wood and have a great bag with all Cally. just might have to consider.

Tyk Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 It would be hard to pick between Mizuno and Cleveland for me. Cleveland would have the edge on the drivers, woods, and hybrids, where Mizuno would have the edge in irons. Both companies make excellent wedges, but I'm currently bagging Mizunos. . .

I know that Apple has some reps at some Best Buys, if that helps explain it at all. Every rep for a golf company has a promotional budget, allowing them to give equipment to either PGA pros or golf retail store employees. This is used at their digression to help promote club sales within larger retailers or green grass accounts. This might clear up this question for you.

JohnBarry Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 My local PGA Pro whom I take lesson from is on staff as a fitting rep for Taylor Made, Adams, Calloway and Cobra. So, he fit us for free, and get us the clubs at 10% above whole sale. He business model is you then become a custom for life, take all your lessons from from, go to his clinics, and it seems to work, well!

Chal Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I think it comes down to 2 things for me. Driver and putter. I want the ball in play and make putts on the green.

Bogey in The Woods Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I think that I would have to look at TM and then Nike. TM has the irons and wedges I like. I hit the SLDR irons and really enjoyed them. Not a big fan of the SLDR driver. Hit farther with my R-11s at demo day than I did the SLDR. NIke has great Irons. Cant wait to demo the new irons. (Tent sale/Demo Day at golfsmith is less than a month away!!) But more than that, Nike is also tied into EVERYTHING else. Yeah the money is all the same in our scenerio, but the added perks of being on the Nike Staff might get me to lean that way. Driver: Nike Covert 2.0 Tour KK 70g Stiff Fairway Wood: Nike Covert 2.0 Tour KK 60g StiffHybrids: Nike Covert 2.0 Tour KK Stiff Irons: R-11s KBS Stiff. Wedges: Cleveland 588 Rotax 56* Some no name 60* I got at Goodwill for $5 Putter:: MGS Ketsch Special Edition Ball: :e7, normally.
