It was the last night of golf league due to a shoulder surgery scheduled for the next week. Every swings follow through caused discomfort in my right shoulder but it didn't stop me from playing. I was the last to hit on hole number 4 at Auglaize Country Club located in NW Ohio. 160 yard Par 3 with a little breeze in my face. I selected a 6 iron which was two clubs longer than I would of hit before my shoulder issues. When I hit the ball my first thought was it better bite as I felt that the ball was hit a little to hard. I figured it would roll across the green. The pin was located in the rear of the green the ball hit on the first 10 foot of the front. It hopped about 15 to 20 feet and it quickly knuckled down. The ball started to roll directly to the hole and just lazily dropped in. It was the first hole in one that I actually seen it go in the hole. I had a hole in one about 15 years ago at Eaglesticks Golf Course in Zanesville OH but it was hole #14, a par 4, that was marked at 358 yards. The pin was located in the back of the green and wasn't within eye shot of the tee. It was the perfect ending to the golf league for the year. Can't wait to heal and play next year!

Hey Titleist Team! I recently hit my 2nd hole in one at Newcastle Golf course in Seattle Washington. It was at the 12th hole at Coal Creek 135 yard par three the pin was forward and there was a big hill on the left side. I hit my tee shot and pulled it a little bit left and immediately was frustrated because I’ve been pulling my irons all day. Luckily it took a bounce off the hill and my friend said “Noni your ball is on the green”and I turned around and watch the ball, in slow motion roll into the hole and disappear. It was crazy because it didn’t feel like a good shot. It wasn’t good shot but somehow it managed to find and I managed to get my second hole-in-one in 10 years both times using ProV’e this time it was a Prov1 and the first time it was a ProV1x. www.titleist.com/.../ixmlytdevdrtxfknpia1 www.titleist.com/.../dkqv5zrvrwks0axnhfft www.titleist.com/.../gz13gfplp4x972zngcwi www.titleist.com/.../ltv7hw2kxqxubadtabbw

I had an opportunity to play Hiwan Golf Club on Monday (Labor Day) with a member friend of mine (Patrick Zimmer). I've played it a few times, but not enough to be able to read the greens yet (Mountains play a massive part in breaks). Anyway... #16 is a complicated par 3 and I have NEVER EVER played it well... enough to say "I really hate this hole" on the way to the box. It's slightly uphill with a tough green. If you miss right... its basically gone, if you go long, the comeback is difficult, if you miss left it's playable... but then you have to putt (no easy task). So my other friend (Justin Guevara) shoots it at 180... 7 iron wheelhouse. We were playing scotch and lost the last hole, so the other two go first and both miss left. My playing partner (Matt Magee) and I had been ham and eggsing it and it was my turn to lead off. Pin was tucked front left of the green with a tree slightly blocking the left edge. I hit a fade to the left front and as soon as it came off the club the guys started chirping... Ohhh that looks good... it's on it. At this point in the story I'm going to pause... this exact thing has happened to me before... I hit the stick in Maui a few years ago and a Ranger fell out of the cart trying to see it go in... I thought I had one at Coal Creek only to find out (after I went sprinting after it) that there was a ridge blocking my way and I missed by a foot long... so when the ball one hopped and then disappeared I tried not to panic or lose it to spare myself the disappointment like the last two times. The next few minutes are a blur... but essentially, my buddy Matt teed off and stuck his to about 20 feet... we get in the cart, and well... the rest is a bucket list item I'll never forget. Oooooo also, on the last hole I put one under a cow elk, she wasn't happy about... the bull wasn't either. www.titleist.com/.../lve07cmp5jpklvova7cf www.titleist.com/.../iyucckhny1o2f0i7drwf www.titleist.com/.../hkmiv59tpb1p6qhyp4ab www.titleist.com/.../jw1yd3wje3xzyjtamsrs

https://youtu.be/w67KrsUgc64 Hey, Team Titleist! At Titleist, we look at golf ball performance in terms of Flight, Spin and Feel. By designing golf ball models that deliver significant differences in Flight, Spin and Feel, you can find just the right golf ball to optimize performance for your individual game. Check out the video above, where we took a closer look at the second of these critical performance characteristics - Spin. In the short game, spin is the key to control. On chips and pitches I’ll take as much spin as I can get. But as I get farther away from the green - distance wedges and short iron shots - I have a hard time controlling a higher spinning golf ball. It’s difficult for me to keep the flight down and predict the spin once the ball hits the green. This is where Pro V1 has been a great choice for me. I can transition easily from finesse wedges to iron shots and I know just how the ball will fly and react upon landing on the green (provided I do my part and execute properly). And in the wind, knowing how my ball will spin becomes even more important. What about you? How important a consideration is spin when it comes to your game and your golf ball model? Have more questions about golf science, performance or what goes into making Titleist products? Find all the answers on the Titleist Learning Lab .

I volunteer at our local club to help and train people new to golf. On tuesday I helped a group of people that are having issues getting back to work, either due to illness or other issues. At hole 4, I wanted to demonstrate how to get the ball high into the air with a 52 iron, mostly to get it to stop quickly. We saw it bounce once, then we lost the ball. I knew it was good… when we approached the green the ball was nowhere to be found and it was strange, it was not short, it was not long… I would never imagine to find it in the cup. This was an amazing experience for me but for the newcomers to golf this was an experience they will never forget. They all signed up for next weeks golfpractice www.titleist.com/.../xyrtznqadi0oqyz29nzt

It’s still hasn’t really sunk in that I have one since I never watched it drop is my assumption. August of 2023 I was competing in one of the large Native American stroke play tournaments of the Pacific Northwest in Anacortes, WA. It was 128 yards, about 25’ uphill, strong headwind (≈25mph). Playing a knockdown 8 iron, I tried keeping the ball out of the wind as best as I could. The green slopes off the right edge severely, so right is dead. Blackberries on the hillside left of the green and cart path, so left is dead too. I aimed at the middle of the green and went for it. We all finished teeing off and the 2 carts in my group went up to the green, and I began my trek uphill. The other 3 guys look for the fourth ball, than swarm the pin and freak out!! I raise my index finger and yell, “One!?” They all confirm it went in! I yelled in excitement and my blood began to pump hard! We finished the hole and proceeded to the next tee box where I PIPED MY DRIVE…. ….into the hazard. I ended up with a double bogey.

Had my first hole-in-one yesterday (9/1/24) at my golf club in Hunt Valley, MD. I’ve played golf for 23 years and finally got the first one! I was playing with two other friends/members. It happened on the Par 3, 4th hole. The hole plays slightly down hill and on this particular day played 149 yds with a little hurt wind to the right. I hit my ProV1x ball perfectly off the club face of my t100s PW landing approx 10-12 ft just beyond the hole. The green slopes at that pin location back to front and I was able to put just enough spin on the ball to watch it drop in the bottom of the cup. Such a great feeling! Thanks team Titleist! www.titleist.com/.../p0sot9qnx72mesweqy8z www.titleist.com/.../yhrmh8njkukmmnzhckjk www.titleist.com/.../u5rnsmwob9qccdtiozwl

So I showed up late to a twilight round with a few buddies of mine (2 of which i golfed for the first time with) & I showed up at hole 6. I started off pretty decent with a few pars & bogeys (keep in mind this only my second summer golfing), until we reached hole 10, a par 3 looking over the bridge. I tee’d up my 9 iron and right before I was about to swing I stopped & didn’t feel like it was the right club to use. I went back to my bag and grabbed my pitching wedge and ended up puring the ball, at first I thought I had a great birdie look until I heard the group ahead of us screaming…. I took a closer look at the green and noticed my prov1 wasn’t there. I immediately sprinted to the hole and was in awe as I saw my ball at the bottom of the hole… best day of my life. www.titleist.com/.../peftca14nefxmwc751a5

My 2nd lifetime hole in one happened today (Sept 1) on Hole 3 of Queensbury Country Club in Lake George, NY. A par 3 (playing 170 yds today), is always a tough hole requiring a carry over a deep, wet gulley with steep slopes on the front left side. Luckily I could see the ball land just short, right of the green and track directly to the pin - and then it just disappeared into the cup. Even after 40+ years of golf, a hole in one is an exciting part of the game. Both of my aces happened with Titleist balls and I love the content delivered on MyTPI. Really looking forward to #3!! www.titleist.com/.../pyk610awmfbpnsb5wtks www.titleist.com/.../mqs4shk8mnsmjgu9c6ka

Dear Titleist, My name is Joey, and I'm 13 years old. I just wanted to tell you something really exciting that happened to me. It’s my third year playing golf and I have been loving the sport. But today 8/28/2024 my passion for the sport has grown out of control. Thanks to the Titleist PRO V1, I hit a hole-in-one. This is definitely the best golf ball ever. I was playing golf with my three friends after my first day of 8th grade. It was a pretty easy day so me and my friends were talking about playing 9 after school. We had half the day so knew we could get a quick round in. We had a tee time for 2 p.m. and I wasn't playing the best golf, but as soon as we got to the 7th hole it was my turn to tee off all of that changes. We were on the 7th hole at Airways Golf Course in West Suffield CT. I didn't really think of anything, I just got up to the tee box and hit. It was around 150 yards, exactly 147 yards. But when I hit the ball, it flew straight toward the ball, bounced once, and then rolled right around the hole and I saw it disappear. I couldn't believe it! My friends and I started cheering so loud. It was the best moment ever! I love playing golf, and now I feel even more confident because I know that I can do something amazing with Titleist PRO V1. This is for sure the best ball in the golf game. Thank you for making such awesome golf gear! I just wanted to share my story with you because I'm really proud of my hole-in-one, and I thought you'd like to know. Sincerely, Joey Copeland www.titleist.com/.../naeujjdshgc0njsa16ut

I’ve sensed it coming for a while. Playing the Pro V1 69 ball. Always playing Pro V1’s (except on water holes). It was a par 3, 88 yards uphill, sunset and friends. Landed in front of the hole, rolled up the hill behind it (the backboard) and back down into it. When we got up to the top to see it, we could see it stuck in the very top of the hole. As we walked up and the wing blew the pin we watched it drop in further. Greater moment in my 25 yrs of golf life. Thank you! www.titleist.com/.../kpfpb0ldb8wbkrca0pbc www.titleist.com/.../axbblcwezxycjntvmll7 www.titleist.com/.../gis36ij1ieylplidseoo

My regular foursome pictured, ready to do a celebratory shot (left to right) Don, David (myself), Steve and Stan. Second picture was a threesome that witnessed the ball go into the hole (I wish I would have asked for their contact info). They had just finished putting out and walking off the green. Incredibly fortuitous golf shot as I hit my png G15 17 degree 4 wood and was hoping to leave myself inside a 100 yards. Instead, I struck the cart path down the left side of the fairway and rolled up the left side of the green where the ball gained momentum and made a right turn and traveled down the green right into the cup. The 3 gentleman pictured in the second shot (me also 2nd from the left) heard the bounce and witnessed the ball roll into the cup. They summoned me up, at first I had no idea why.. 1 in a million?? Coolest, craziest golf story, memory I have to this day. I mean, what are the odds?

Its Thursday night golf league at my local course, scramble style. My team was the last to go off because of traffic I hit on the way to the course. We start off the round par, birdie, par, par and are not feeling great about our chances. We knew we needed to birdie out to have a shot at forcing a playoff. We bounce back with birdies on 5, 6, 7, and 8, putting us at 5-under going into the last hole. We pull up to the tee box knowing we needed a birdie to have a chance. All of the other groups from the league (about 20 guys) are in their carts behind the 9th green to watch the teams come in, as is tradition in our league. It's a downhill par 3 over water, playing 155 yards to a fairly-tucked back right pin. I'm the first to tee off for our team, 8 iron in hand (png G400; yes, I know, sorry everyone). I hit an absolute seed with my Pro V1-x, dead straight, going right at the pin. At the time, its dusk, so I lose track of the ball as it descends toward the green. All of a sudden, all 20 guys from behind the green jump out of their carts screaming and run towards the green. I never saw it go in, so it takes me a moment to calculate what happened. Before I can even comprehend what I did my teammates jump on me celebrating. It finally clicks and I take off on a dead sprint from the tee box to the green, leaving my 8-iron on the tee box behind me. I get to the green and see a divot about 4 feet past the pin. The guys tell me that my ball landed there and immediately zipped straight back into the hole. The "commissioner" of our league then asks, "So what did you guys finish?" I take a moment and calculate it in my head and say "Well 7-under now." He turns to the other teams and goes, "They just won on that!" Turns out, we were right that a birdie would have forced a playoff, as the leader to that point finished 6-under. But with my ace, we jumped the leader and won at 7-under! So we took our picture of the winning team as we do every week (follow @suapgolf on instagram, our league's for-fun instagram page) and I got my obligatory ace picture, and then I remember what I've always told myself ... If I ever hit a hole-in-one on a hole over water, I'm going in! So I kick off my shoes and my hat and jump in the lake! Unfortunately, during my celebratory plunge, my wedding ring slips off and is gone forever. Thankfully, my wife understands, and even laughed about it. So, I'm without a wedding ring and an 8-iron that is probably still on the tee box at the course, but I've got a great memory, the ball, and I can finally say I've got one! www.titleist.com/.../nbcenv9tunnva4alh6aj

It was an uphill Par 3, so, when I got to the green, and my ball wasn't there, I thought I'd gone long with the shot. I approached the hole and there it was, looking up at me.

For me being a player that is still new to golf, the feeling of beating my peers pales in comparison to getting my first hole in one. I knew I had thee right iron and I knew I hit a great shot off tee but until you get to the green and see the ball in the bottom of the cup it doesn’t really set in. Sharing the experience with a golf buddy who was just as excited as me was cool too! Team Titleist for life….

As part of weekly tradition following our regular Thursday night match play league, 10-12 or so guys will all go out together and play skins for $1 per hole, par or better, with carryovers. It’s fun and we all look forward to it. I’m 53 years old and have been playing golf for roughly 40 years, although, I didn’t really commit to working on a solid swing until my early 30’s. Currently, I play 3-4 days per week and while my HC is up a bit this year, I’m a decent player for someone that has a full time job. I’ve come close many times, but until this year, I’d never had a hole in one. June 6th, while out playing skins, we came to hole #4. It was playing about 124 that day to a front pin. I tee’d first and hit a nice little 3/4 PW that landed just in front of the green, bounced twice and dropped in while 10 witnesses went nuts! In the group were three very long time playing buddies (2 at nearly 30 years of playing together), so it was special for them to be part of it. The best part is, my best friend of over 30 years tee’d off just after me … hit an identical shot, but his hit the pin and stayed out by 3”. He was also using a ProV1 (yellow) Last night, August 27th, as part of my Tuesday league’s end of season 2-Man Best Ball, on hole #17, playing 189 yards to a back right pin, I hit a 6 iron a little this and toward the hosel. It landed 15 yards short of the green, but ran up and started track toward the hole. It was a mediocre shot at best, but found the bottom of the cup for my 2nd ace of the year and my life! Two in the same year!! Both of which were done using a Titleist ProV1 and both balls have been saved. I’m thankful for playing such an incredible ball. I’ve tried them all .. I like some others, but the ProV1 is my ball of choice and has now gotten me two aces!! Thank you Titleist. www.titleist.com/.../mgv3cqrvmglvo00xjiha www.titleist.com/.../lrf1vigfj5uiupiifaok www.titleist.com/.../xce0vb5p59imjqdysq0s www.titleist.com/.../las7wrnm7iq5hi4yzceb

Playing in our Men’s Group at Patrick Farms Golf Club in Pearl, MS on August 20, 2024, I was having a good day. I birdied the first par 3 from 5 feet after tee shot landed 5” to right of the hole. I birdied the second par 3 from 7 feet short of the hole. Made the turn at 1 over par. Bogeyed 11 & 12 before making a birdie on par 5 #13 hole after missing an eagle by 6”. Then on the 133 yard par 3 #16, I hit a 8-Iron low into a good wind. I was recently diagnosed with “macular pucker” in my distance eye and have had trouble following my drives & some iron shots especially into the sun. When none of my 3 playing partners saw my yellow Titleist Trufeel ball & I did not find it on the green with my range finder, I drove down to the green & began looking over the backside of the green. Then Clay Rouse hollowed out “it’s up here in the hole”. With a big smile I retrieved the ball & took some pictures after my partners finished the hole. Finished the final 2 holes on a natural high with a one over par 73. Honored to make my first HOLE-IN-ONE on my deceased mothers birthday after 38 years of golfing! www.titleist.com/.../hht9pgve6s9gtxl2cifi www.titleist.com/.../di0tngie5f6ituxpoeew

My name is Tony Bouie and I have been playing the game of golf for 4 years now. On today August 27th 2024, I hit my first hole in one from 130 yards out at my home course (The Classic Golf Course in Spanaway Washington. There was a light breeze blowing left to right on the 13th hole when I pulled my T350 AW from my bag. I just got these for my birthday in June. My tee shot was about 134 yards with the perfect amount of backspin on the True feel that I hit to back it up right into the cup. Of course we thought it was close but the closer we got to the hole we didn’t see the ball. My playing partner ran up to verify that it went in and we both started yelling let’s go at the same time. Thank you for allowing me to share my hole on one story. I decided with the purchase of these clubs and their performance I am Team Titleist for life. www.titleist.com/.../wj3l6kitrxw1ufglvlxa www.titleist.com/.../ncd86vuo4dlkurfsordh www.titleist.com/.../twv9vpsbpywulsddsx8a

Hello Team Titleist, I'm excited to share that I made my first hole-in-one this past weekend on 8/25/24. Like all hole-in-ones, it was an epic moment however, I have to brag that mine was extra epic because it was made at the Aguila Golf Course, hole #8, par 4, from 277 yards with my Titleist Pro-V1!! It really was a shot that once it left the club face, it never had anything to do but to roll in. The shot landed about 265 yards out slightly left of the hole just off the green, took one nice hop releasing onto the green, and proceeded to roll directly into the hole. The very interesting piece to this story is that at the Aguila golf course, you are able to choose your cart from the rows they've set out for the players in the morning. As my playing partner and I were selecting our cart for the round, he suggested cart #37 and cited that it would be a great score to make on the front nine. I countered and ultimately chose cart #1 and made the comment that someone in the group would be getting an Ace today. When the starter was checking us in and recorded the cart #1, she asked what does that mean. (why she asked that I have not idea) I again made the comment that someone was going to get an Ace in our group today. I believe this further supports the adage that you have to manifest things by putting the thought into existence. I couldn't have had this epic moment without the amazing performance and feel of the Pro-V1, thanks Titleist !! Sincerely, Scott Reynolds Gilbert, AZ P.S. I have a video of me grabbing the ball out of the hole but had no way to upload the file: ) www.titleist.com/.../xbycytxypikwwbitjpzg www.titleist.com/.../ir4dcnsgrj9cl5bnqmib www.titleist.com/.../cztbe1jy2kbtd140wjw7

On a hot August 26, 2024 100 degree day, I carded my second hole in one playing a Titleist Velocity golf ball. It was on the 3rd hole, the Ridge Course, at Echo Valley Country Club in Norwalk, Iowa. The par 3 hole was playing 148 yards with a cross wind. I hit a 7 iron and on the third hop my Titleist Velocity golf ball went in the hole. This is my second hole in one which the first hole in one accrued 8 years and 10 days earlier in the 6 th hole Par 3 156 yards Ridge Course. www.titleist.com/.../ou9hmbltbuxlvmg9fgyo www.titleist.com/.../ubrptz0oazwoynzqfhhq

Hole 10 at Flint Hills National is one of the prettiest golf holes in the midwest. Its a shot directly over water with a cabin to the right. Plays anywhere from 115 to 145 yards Hit an A wedge from 121 yards out and the pin was tucked way right. Hole was behind a mound. Hit a good ball in and it spun back 10 feet and we couldn't see the hole. Drove up and didn't see a golf ball on the green and started to think on my it may be in. We walked up there and sure enough it was in the hole! My group was so amped up that we didn't even think to save the ball. I proceeded to hit it in the water just a little left next hole!

At the beginning of an early morning round at Robert A. Black on the north side of Chicago, on the second hole, I hit a 9 iron on the part 3 140-yard hole. Pin was in the far back-right of the green. I hit the ball on a low trajectory at the hole but it hit in front of the green and took a nice bounce towards the hole. Playing partner commented how lucky I was to get a good bounce! I thought it was going to be a 15-ft putt for birdie, but when I got to the green I could see the ball was very close to the hole, and as I got even closer, I could see the ball was actually in the hole, but still halfway above the surface of the green, leaning against the pin. One of the grounds crew who was mowing around the green came running up to take a picture of the ball, so another witness besides my playing partner. :) First hole in one of my golfing career, which started roughly 45 years ago, so a long time coming!

I turned 30 in 12/2023 and decided when I moved to Cleveland that fall ('23) that I would pick up golf to meet people, get to know the in-laws, and get out since changing to a remote job. I've golfed twice before moving in 2 scrambles and hardly ever used anything outside one of my lucky putts. Come to 2024, I've been getting out with friends and family as many times as I can. Including the 2 scrambles, I've played 15 times - [12] 18 holes, [1] 9 holes and the two scrambles. I've been getting into the 80s recently but usually 90-100 if I'm safe. I'll tell you the biggest tip - buy NICE balls. You then care a lot more when swinging so you can find your money. Fast forward to today 8/26/24, I parred my first ever hole #1 at 6:50AM (TT) - well before I normally wake up. Thought it was going to be a great day. Went downhill FAST. Got to the turn, food wasnt open yet, was slowly dying. Come around to the next par 3 (hole 12 at Sleepy Hollow in Brecksville) and I see the 2 before me land it on the green in my group of 4 so I said I just wanna smack it right at the pin. Got up - didn't think - just swung a 7 iron at the 140yd par 3. It hit slightly left on a slight downhill towards to pin and after about 1sec of watching it roll, it dropped in and we went ecstatic. For being so new, I never expected anything like this to happen so soon. I was using free clubs my buddy found (Hogans), a free bag my buddy who owns a driving range gave me, and Titleist TruFeels because something just feels right about them. I can't drive, I get pretty lucky chipping and I'm an OK putter, but this 7 off the blue tees (when I'd rather play white) was just top-of-the-world feeling. I was grateful to have 3 buddies there to witness. The pro-shop at Sleepy Hollow was also awesome to give me some items and a discount on a flag. I will be chasing this high for years to come. www.titleist.com/.../tzleafmoxnfmilfg5r4a www.titleist.com/.../kvarpvzisihc6pdgwwcg www.titleist.com/.../kwe14bohlszjxlb73suz www.titleist.com/.../s5pq6q5m6oqgjulytajg

Hello Titleist! I just got my first hole in one at the Par 3 6th hole at the Donald Ross course at the French Lick Resort in Indiana. I got lucky that our other 4some was playing in front of us and were backed up. This allowed them to stand behind the green and watch my group's shots. The shot was uphill, I could see the pin, but not the hole. From 153 I used and 8 hour and hit a great shot. I knew it was close but couldn't imagine it was that close. The other group started going crazy and I didn't believe them. I even let our 4th player hit his shout before I drove up there. The group got a great video of me taking the ball out of the flag and me mentioning I was waiting for them to tell me they were just kidding. I hit the ball about 4 feet past and it spun back into the hole. What a great feeling and one I will truly never forget. The fact the other half of our group was there to witness it means so much more. I will from here on out be referred to as Ace in our future golf outings. I used a T200 8iron and a Pro V1. www.titleist.com/.../xfnno0ynhbfwobsoqjox

It was a brutally hot day. Almost cancelled several times but ended up teeing off at 11:10 at Eaglewood Golf Club in Itasca IL August 25th. It was a sunday afternoon, so play time was painfully slow, on hole 3 we decided to let two young kids play through us for a reason we still can not understand since the whole course was backed up. Then comes hole 4, a par 4 337 yards. The hole plays downhill so you cant see the green. We assumed we could tee off and proceeded to do so. Driving down I came over the hill and saw the two young kids screaming, my initial throughts were I hit one of them and instantly got worried. Only to pull up to them cheering! Its in the cup!!! the two kids were the only guys able to witness it, but apparently they were putting out on the green when my ball hit shy of the green 2 ft, proceeded to roll up right into the cup! The cart girl, was the only other witness, she gave me a free snickers, thanks cart girl! www.titleist.com/.../wqlq6scifidmhtzmnqjm

Playing at Midland Meadows Golf Club in Norton, New Brunswick. Playing hole 18, Par 3, laser stated pin was 115 yards on the back of the green on the short par 3. I'm a lefty, the shot started out right and faded back into the hole then I saw it bounce and roll out and then it disappeared. But on that green near the back there is a little dip so I thought it was in that spot....then my buddy Ricky was like "I don't want to be dramatic but I saw it disappear" and I was like "nah it was short". Then I got up to the green and there was no ball (the other guys were off the green) and even then it being in the hole wasn't even my thought. I was thinking, shoot I went long. Ricky said "I know you don't want to be that guy that checks but you have to be that guy" so I'm walking toward the pin, all the time looking at the rough off the back and it wasn't until I was about 6 ft from the pin where I was like "There is no other spot this ball can be" and the adrenaline started to build. I draw a black line on every one of my balls, and I looked in the cup and there was the line looking right back at me.

Currently have 4 aces in my career and all have came with in the last 4 years. The most recent being 8/25/24 in an outing with some friends from work. My first 3 came while playing in league with my cousin, and the fact that he was able to witness them was great because I also got to witness his first 3. However, The fact that none of my buddies from work have ever witnessed a hole in one before made the most recent one a little more special, and it came with a golf ball I got custom made in honor of my grandfather who got me into the game of golf!

LPGA | AIG Women’s Open With history on the line, Lydia Ko stuck her Pro V1x golf ball to six feet on the Old Course’s 18th green, setting up the birdie that would clinch her first AIG Women’s Open, third major championship and 21st career LPGA title. Ko, who started the day three shots back of the lead, posted a back-nine 34 Sunday for a closing 3-under 69, hitting 15 of 18 greens in regulation. She finished the week at 7 under to complete the comeback victory, the fifth straight win for Titleist golf ball players on the LPGA Tour. Over four days at a cold, wet and windy Old Couse, Ko hit 75 percent of fairways (48/64) and 81 percent greens in regulation (58/72). She finished T1 in bogey avoidance, surrendering just six over the four rounds and only one on Sunday. Perhaps the shot of the week came on the 17th hole. The 27-year-old was tied for the lead at 6 under playing the famous Road Hole in some of the worst weather of the day. Faced with an intimidating approach from the fairway, Ko hit her approach low, running her Pro V1x up around the Road Hole bunker and onto the green. The shot set up a stress-free par, preserving Ko’s momentum as she headed to the 18th tee. “For both Alexa [Pano] and I to have parred that hole in those conditions, that was probably one of the best shots I've hit...honestly it was so windy and rainy, I saw that the ball was heading towards the pin, but I had no idea that it was on that second tier,” said Ko. “The back was completely out of play because I couldn't reach it. So it's nice to just be able to make an aggressive swing at it, but yeah, that's probably one of the best, you know, punch shots or shots I've hit coming down the stretch.” www.instagram.com/.../ KO ON HER TITLEIST GOLF BALL “I’ve used the Titleist ball for a really long time and I can speak from my experience that every time I’ve tried something new I’ve been able to see a difference, and I just love how it is the #1 golf ball. It’s not just an advertisement. It is something that I believe and something that I really trust. The golf ball is such a crucial part of the equipment standpoint and in the game.” ANWA CHAMP EARNS LOW AMATEUR HONORS The champion of this year’s Augusta National Women’s Amateur shot rounds of 72-70-72-73 to earn low amateur honors at the Old Course. She capped off her week with a birdie on the 72nd hole to finish inside the top 10 at 1 under. DP WORLD TOUR | Danish Golf Championship Frederick Lacroix (Pro V1) turned a four-shot deficit to begin Sunday’s final round into a four-shot win by day’s end, earning his first DP World Tour title. Nobody went lower over the weekend than Lacroix, who followed up a Saturday 67 with a bogey-free 65 to reach his 14-under total. The 29-year-old graduated from the Challenge Tour last season, and he now moves to No. 11 in the Race to Dubai rankings. For the week, Lacroix ranked second in Strokes Gained: Tee-to-Green (+10.16). Over three of those shots came from around the green (+3.24, 6th) and four came from approach play (+4.00, 11th). PGA TOUR CHAMPIONS | The Ally Challenge Stewart Cink (Pro V1x) posted a flawless 6-under 66 to win for the first time on the PGA TOUR Champions. Cink had total control over his ballstriking, hitting 49 of 54 greens in regulation (91%) to lead the field. On the five occasions he missed the green, he got his Pro V1x up and down four times (80%, T8). His 17-under total was good for a four-shot margin of victory. SUNSHINE TOUR | SunBet Challenge Times Square Casino Thriston Lawrence (Pro V1) began the week with a 10-under 62 opening round and ended the week with a five-shot victory. Lawrence, who shot matching 67’s over the weekend, posted 20 under over three rounds at Wingate Park Country Club. KLPGA | Hanwha Classic 2024 Jiyoung Park (Pro V1) picked up her third KLPGA title of the season, posting 13 under for the week to win by three. Park began Sunday two shots off the pace, but her closing 4-under 68 sealed the victory. She now moves to No. 2 in the KLPGA Money List and Player of the Year standings. PGA TOUR AMERICAS | CentrePort Canada Rail Park Manitoba Open Titleist Brand Ambassador John Keefer shot a final round 5-under 67 to earn his first career PGA Tour Americas title. Keefer (Pro V1x) is projected to move to No. 1 in the season-long Fortinet Cup standings, having recorded four runner-up finishes in seven events coming into the week. His worst finish this year is T9, finishing inside the top 10 in every other of his starts. This week in Manitoba, Keefer made 27 birdies and an eagle, eventually finishing the tournament at 26 under, good for a one-shot win. What’s in the Bag? | John Keefer Golf Ball: Titleist Pro V1x Driver: TSR2 11.0° Irons: T200 3 and T100 4-9 Wedges: Vokey Design SM9 46.10F, 50.12F, 54.10S AMATEUR | U.S. Senior Amateur The U.S. Senior Amateur kicked off on Saturday at The Honors Course, with 136 players – 87 percent of the field – playing a Titleist golf ball .

At the prime age of 63, I got my 1st hole in one on August 10, 2024 on hole #6 at Indianhead Golf Course in Mosinee, WI during the Friends of Indianhead Golf Tournament. I hit my Titleist T300 9 iron 134 yards over the pond, the ball bounced twice and spun back into the Cup! I was with my brother Mike who claims he talked me out of my 8 iron and into into my trusty T300 9 iron. I wish he would have taken half of the credit for the bar bill for 80 guys! Worth every penny. I did not see the the ball go into the hole, poor eye sight, but my brother and opponents did. I didn't believe either of them. As we walked to the green, we did not see a ball. I thought it went over because there is no way I would have gotten a hole in one, right? As I walked to the pin, my brother recorded my reaction. My Pro V1 was in the jar! As we were celebrating, I stopped 1/2 way through and told my brother that I was just messing with him and it wasn't in the hole which killed the mood for a second or two. Then I said "it is in the hole" and we went crazy again! My brother handed his phone to "Doc" to video tape us together celebrating, but "Doc" had the phone backwards and video taped himself during our celebration. Way to go "Doc"! IT was an awesome day! www.titleist.com/.../yhydteb6qlglwk7zrf4m www.titleist.com/.../kijdr2vkwvq3sprseedp www.titleist.com/.../l4qohpq0dmskxapqgawz www.titleist.com/.../fucg747ypren2mxny7fd

I made a hole in one today on a 147 yard par 3. After not hitting the ball too well all day, with two holes left to play in a 4-man scramble, I stepped up to the tee as the last man with zero balls on the green and flushed my pitching wedge. The ball was perfectly on line with the pin the whole way, it landed on the front of the green and rolled out about 10-15 yards and as it reached the pin we saw the ball disappear. We all cheered as this was my first hole in one and a memory I will never forget.

So, it's early on a Saturday morning and the sun has not yet risen high in the sky. When we come to the par 3 4th at The Golf Club at Creekmoor, the pin is actually shaded by shadows from the trees east of the green. I knew I had hit my tee shot well, but it disappeared into the shadows. These old eyes could not follow it once it did. After the second player tees off and hits the green as well, I use my range finder to look for our balls. I see two white spots well short of the hole which was disappointing as I thought I had hit my shot better than that. When we get to the green, another member in the group tells me I should walk past the hole. I wonder why and then realize one of the white spots I had seen from the tee box was actually the previous groups proxy marker. I thought no, it couldn't be in the hole, but I didn't see a ball that would have run past the hole and off the green. Sure enough, there was my Titleist Pro V1x in the hole. No matter that I didn't see it disappear, I'll take it. Randy McFarland www.titleist.com/.../cb4r7u5abnhlvltqyf22

It was the 11th Hole with the Native Oaks Players Club last Saturday playing the Lawrence Welk's Fountain Course because of a Juniors’ golf event at the regular course – Native Oaks Golf Course (Valley Center, CA). I was in the first group that morning and playing my usual hot and cold round. On the 10th, I found something in my swing and nearly drove the green, chipping and putting for a birdie. Approaching the 11th tee with a pond between tee markers and the green, I could not help but notice a family watching us from their timeshare balcony at the resort. I was the last to tee off and used my range finder for 102 yards. Using my pitching (P) wedge, I struck the shot well. I watched it go right over the stick as I waited for the usual “it looks good” phrase from someone in our threesome. It landed on the green right behind the flag. I blinked and for a moment that interrupted my view, but I was able to see the ball spin back into the cup. As the pictures show it landed about 6-iches behind the cup before rolling in. I raised my arms and heard my comrades going berserk! The balcony was unequivocally screaming; as if there was a party at 9:30 (a.m., not p.m.). After tipping my hat to the Gallery(!) and slapping more high-fives, we got in the carts and on to the putting surface. The pictures reveal the ball mark was approx. 6" past the hole. I reached in for the Titlist Pro VI and turned around to the grandstands (as if I were competing at the Waste Management Open!) and raised my right hand with the ball - pointing heroically one more time with screams and applause! The threesome took the usual pictures (attached) before we went on our joyous way to the 12th hole. When the round was over, I discovered in the clubhouse did pretty good which was good enough for the top prize winner, as well as the recipient of the club's Hole-in-One insurance - less the amount spent on drinks in the clubhouse bar. The Welk's Pro Shop also presented me with a Hole-in-One Certificate (attached). They are a first class facility! A final word which I was afraid to share during the round. Three people later heard me mention that I communicated to my friend (Steve) while I was addressing the infamous shot. I said to my departed friend, “this shot is for you” because you intentionally entered my mind at that moment! Being we were both avid golfers, Bob (NOPC’s President) often paired us in the same group. I was not happy with my swing consistency to that point on the 11th and for an unlikely reason I thought of Steve while I was addressing the ball. Was it divine intervention? I wouldn’t be telling you this if I did believe it! Steve was a non-smoker who passed away from an extremely aggressive form of lung cancer at too early an age. In his mid-50's Steve was an exceptionally good golfer, but one of the greatest members of NOPC. Steve was on everyone’s mind in the whole club! He never came out of the ICU and was not able to tell us his final story. I had reservations about mentioning it to anyone, but I did muster up enough courage in saying it after the round to one of the fellows in the threesome. He too, had his story to share about Steve, which gave me the courage to tell NOPC’s President (Bob) about my experience. I also brought this up to wife Mari, but she was so nice and let my emotions run freely. Altogether, it was a magical day, one I will always remember! Thank you for letting me share it with you. -Mel www.titleist.com/.../kzo5ur8e9qjif3mj07cd www.titleist.com/.../wnkzps162av7qzeca7ai www.titleist.com/.../elcz08wobjhu061wrvtg www.titleist.com/.../t849hbqe4hqf7dlolk6d www.titleist.com/.../xasbqvqy1ykl1wkme93a

Like any other Saturday, I went to the Industry Hills Women's Club and played on the Ike course. The 9th hole, a par 3, is short but has a fast green with a steep slope, making it a very tricky hole. If you come up short on an uphill putt, the ball rolls back down, and if you hit too hard on a downhill putt, it rolls all the way down. That day, the pin was located at the top, so I aimed for about 115 yards and decided to take one more club, hitting a 6 hybrid. There was a bunker in front of the green, but since I took an extra club, I aimed for the pin. I saw the ball landed a bit above the pin on the green, and then it started rolling to the right. I thought it went into the rough on the right side of the green when I lost sight of it. As I walked up to the green to look for my red ball, I couldn’t find it. Just as I was thinking that it shouldn’t have disappeared, one of the members shouted to me, "Jenna, your ball is in the hole! You got a hole in one!" Oh my God, I’ve been playing golf for over 20 years and had never made a hole in one, so I often thought about why I never had that luck. But to get a hole in one in such an unexpected moment was truly exhilarating. That day, I bought drinks for all the members and 1received the Hole in One fund collected by the women's club. www.titleist.com/.../spreowi7pg1eiwssj0uz

After 50+ years of golfing, I had my first hole in one yesterday, August 24,2024. Every year, the Minn-Iowa Golf Club near Elmore, MN hosts a 3-man scramble. After 15 holes we arrived at the 180 yard par 3 hole 5. I hit my Titleist ProV1 with a five iron. The ball landed at the front of the green, drifted forward, caught the slope, slid left towards the cup and in it went. As the ball slid left on the green, it went from sun to shade. So I lost track from the tee box. Another player said “it went in the hole.” We hurriedly drove up to the green to look in the cup. And to my amazement, there it was. Good times with good friends. www.titleist.com/.../zf1c7ey4evo3mdhsiuyq www.titleist.com/.../mrofq3vxproizfqynlle

My golfing buddies are a bunch of Seniors who play maybe twice a week at the beautiful Ranfurly Castle Golf Club in Bridge of Weir Scotland - I am the second youngest at 73! On the 7th August this year we numbered ony three, for varying reasons, and played up to the 7th hole, a short 169 yds whack, approached via a channel between rough on both sides. Now, for fairly obvious reasons, the group have been named "The Red Arrows" so David and Andy teed of hitting both left and right! Just to complete the 'set' I smacked my ball unusually straight uphill on to the green. I always wear contact lens due to the frequently wet weather on the West coat of Scotland, and these are not perfect but a 'trade off' between short/long distance i.e. my ball seemed to disappear in my blur. David said, Hey! that looked good. Bottom line, I never saw it go in. Every year at the 16th tee a posy of flowers appears which clearly marks a well loved and significant spot to persons unknown - on hearing this, my wife asked what she could do if I popped my cloggs and, as you may have guessed, I had previously nominate a bunker at the 7th where my ashes could torment my pals for years to follow. www.titleist.com/.../sidfdv7pveyxcx5pqqni www.titleist.com/.../mwnyde6xtx4eakjl0lfx www.titleist.com/.../xl2ensiq35izerpkkhtk

Hi TT: Been a while but glad to be back. I had a real rough season for most of the spring and summer. Fighting the s*()_( and really struggling mentally. Oh, I would have a nice 9 holes, but the other 9 was horrendous. I have really been working on solidifying my set up and take away, hitting lots of balls trying to get it repeatable on the course. Today it finally happened, 38-38=76, best ball striking round in a couple years. This round happened on the eve of my dear friend's memorial. A fellow member of our very strong high school golf team and someone I have known since kindergarten. I never knew a more genuine, kindhearted soul. A natural athlete, self-taught mid 70s golfer, and pitcher who was so good he had a tryout with his beloved Baltimore Orioles. I miss you Steve, this round is for you.

https://youtu.be/hD79RbwOzG0 With the FedEx Cup Playoffs in the Mile-High City this week, we thought it would be the perfect time to share this video with our R&D expert Courtney Engle weighing in on how altitude affects golf ball performance. As Courtney explains, one of the primary factors contributing to the added distance is the change in air density, which decreases as elevation increases. Thinner air exerts less drag force on the ball, so it moves more easily through the air and doesn't slow down as quickly as it flies. As for how to calculate the potential distance gain, you'll have to watch the video to find out. And after you watch this one, make sure you head over to the Titleist Learning Lab to explore more topics and get the answers to even more of your golf-related questions: https://www.titleist.com/learning-lab Subscribe to the Titleist YouTube channel here .

By Jeff WilliamsJeff.Williams@newsday.comUpdated August 18, 2024 1:09 am Massapequa's Steve Codispodo hit two holes-in-one in one round at Top of the World Golf Resort in Lake George — a feat that, according to the National Hole In One Registry, has 67 million-to-one odds of happening. On a recent family vacation with his two brothers-in-law in Lake George, Steve Codispodo had to be encouraged to play golf on Monday. He still was feeling the effects of a heart procedure last December and golf wasn’t high on his radar. “We wanted to have six players so we would have two groups of three and three,” brother-in-law Frank Mylett said. “He decided to play. He took one for the team.” Playing at the Top of the World Golf Resort in Lake George, Codispodo was hacking it around when he got to the 135-yard par-3 seventh hole. But a crisp iron shot found the green and the rolling ball found the bottom of the cup for an ace, his first ever. As he finished the round at the 185-yard par-3 18th, his 3-hybrid shot rolled and rolled and rolled as Codispodo walked nonchalantly to his golf cart. Then that ball dropped in for a second ace. Codispodo had achieved the rarest of all feats in the game. According to the National Hole in One Registry, the odds of one player making two aces in a round are 67 million to one. Massapequa's Steve Codispodo hit two holes-in-one in one round at Top of the World Golf Resort in Lake George — a feat that, according to the National Hole In One Registry, has 67 million-to-one odds of happening. “I was having one of the worst rounds I’ve had in a very long time,” said Codispodo, 56, of Massapequa. “I had only played golf two times this year. I had some health issues over the past couple of years. I only played because my brother-in-laws and nephews kind of twisted my arm and said, ‘C’mon, you have to get out.’ ” Because there was a foursome in front of them that had two first-time golfers, the two threesomes bunched up to play together. That included Mylett, other brother-in-law John Willix, his son Patrick, Patrick’s girlfriend Amanda King and Steven Sica, the boyfriend of Codispodo’s daughter. Consequently they all were able to witness both aces. “I was on the fence to play,” Codispodo said. “I said all right, I’ll swing the clubs for a few hours, and look what happened. Unbelievable.” There was nothing to indicate it would happen, but luck is a big part of the game no matter the skill level. “I was 14 over par by the seventh hole,” said Codispodo, who owns a company in Holtsville that supplies aircraft parts and electronic components. “My hip was killing me. I couldn’t swing my driver properly, but I could swing my irons. That was why I was doing well with the par 3s.” His 18-hole score? 96. “This was all luck. It didn’t have anything to do with skill, that’s for sure,” Codispodo said with a laugh.

I have been playing golf for 57 years. I play in a lot of amateur competitions but have never had a hole in one. One June 1, 2024 I scored my first ace at Pinehaven Country Club in Guilderland NY where I have played for decades. I was playing a Titleist AVX. I have played Titleist golf balls for as long as I can remember. Interestingly, it is the same hole where my husband has had 3 holes in one, all with the same club (8iron). My hole in one was with an 8 iron as well! I realize it is more than 30 days but was wondering if I could get the items Titleist provides for having a hole in one with their golf balls. www.titleist.com/.../a6w3qnn62ow7r5eqyo6b

It was a hot summer day at Rolling Hills Country Club, Home of the LPGA, located in Wichita, KS. I was participating in our member ran Bushwood Ryder Cup. The morning format was four ball. My partner and I were down 5 going into 13. 13 was playing 180 yards from the blues. I hit an 8 iron, landed about 12ft short, rolled up and dropped. I sprinted down the fairway praying the ball wasn't sitting behind the pin. A member of the opposing team raced his personal cart down the gravel road and threw his hands in the air to help me celebrate a bucket list item being checked. Titleist AVX is the only ball I'll play til God decides Golf is no longer a game I am fit to play. Go Chiefs! Nick www.titleist.com/.../wv0kavgntrdnrnitjwvg www.titleist.com/.../aih4hhvlahqjv2uq290v

Friday, August 16th, Branchburg New Jersey. It was a very hot and humid. 2:10 PM Tee Time @ Fox Hollow Golf Club. Hole #4, Elevated green, looks like a trap in front, 158 yards, I grab an easy 7, pull my Titleist pro v marked with "56", tee up......find my line, look up, look down, look up, look down(all while settling my footing)....breath...go 1-2-3...1-2-3....struck it clean, ball flight middle left, we see a bounce right...should be on the dance floor... Pull up to the green, we don't see my ball, I grab my 60 and putter. I start to survey if I rolled off as I make my way towards cup and I peak in and um....ummm...ummm...uummm....my ball is in the hole looking back up at me. :) Just screamed LEZZZZZGOOOOOOO! and ran back to the cart like a little kid to grab my phone to record my feat! Best part was in front of friends! Hopefully I don't have to wait as long for the next one! www.titleist.com/.../ewzgkgdsx9bzqfpkpvy4 www.titleist.com/.../psmyfo9sz0kto3mxjdrj www.titleist.com/.../befynugjotsvzkeamwyg www.titleist.com/.../awo56envaewwcs4vrgnf

I was playing at Eagle Watch Golf Club hole #14 over water. It was early morning, and the sun was on the horizon and reflecting off the water. The pin was deep around 162 yds. I hit a feathered 6 iron and never saw it after contact. As I approached the green I only saw 2 balls on and neither near the line I thought my ball should be on. I knew I hit it well but since I couldn't see it land I went looking long as I walked from the cart to the green when a playing partner said it's in the hole. I'm thinking yeah right, but he did seem serious. As I approached the hole I could see a fresh divot about an inch left and 2 inches deep.....Easy Game!

Friday August 16, 2024. We had a tee time at Flanders Valley golf club for @130pm, when we realized the tee time was only for a twosome, we scrambled to get a tee time at 210pm at Fox Hollow Golf Club in Branchburg New Jersey. Pull up to Hole 4, par 3, elevated green, we can only see part of the flag from tee box. We figured playing 158 yards. I pull out my 7 iron, tee up my pro v with my personal "56" stamped on it, see my line and swing away. Clean swing, heading towards green, we see it bounce right. I get into my cart with my buddy, Jim, he asked "where did you end up?", I jokingly reply with "Next to the pin." We pull up to the green and don't see my ball. I grab my 60 degree and putter and survey the back of the green as I approach the hole with anticipation it might be in the hole. As I walk by the hole and peak in, there was my pro v "56" neselted next to the stick in the hole. I started pointing and babbling um um um um, its in the hole! Finally I figured it out! Easy Game! Great way to start the weekend! www.titleist.com/.../jur6vbxqhlsmtcwiymht www.titleist.com/.../gxpeewd5tysymdqococ7 www.titleist.com/.../ocfwaonrxouag0n1zpyd www.titleist.com/.../nujzyakwf4xf9kpoe5kf

Om Saturday March 30, 2024,I achieved my first hole in one at Iron Play Golf Course in Summerfield, NC. Par 3 Lucky hole number 13, 92 yards out. Pitching wedge. Ball landed on the green rolled hit the pin and dropped in. Unfortunately, I played by myself that dsy, but luckily the group behind me witnessed it along with a course staff member that just happened to be in the area monitoring the course. Otherwis, my experience/accomplishment would have had the same affect as a tree falling in a forest. Attached is a copy of the local golf digest, highlighting my (Jenaro Jackson) achievement. www.titleist.com/.../uweljaepon5whlfwcqe0

LPGA | ISPS Handa Women’s Scottish Open Lauren Coughlin (Pro V1) earned her second LPGA Tour victory in three weeks, playing her final five holes in 3 under to pull away from the field for an emphatic four-shot win, the largest margin of victory this season on the LPGA. Over the 72 holes in Scotland, Coughlin carded rounds of 69-69-66-69 to finish the week at 15 under, which included a stretch of 47 consecutive holes of bogey-free golf. She also continued her under-par streak which now stands at 18 consecutive rounds. Coughlin was dialed all week at Dundonald, hitting 83 percent of fairways (47/56) and 76 percent greens in regulation (55/72). She surrendered just four bogeys all week (T1) while making 19 birdies (T1). Over her last four starts on the LPGA Tour, Coughlin has recorded finishes of 4th (Amundi Evian Championship), 1st (CPKC Women’s Open), T9 (Portland Classic) and 1st (ISPS Handa Women’s Scottish Open), while averaging over four strokes gained on the field per round (+4.29) and 83 percent GIR. COUGHLIN’S MOVE FROM PRO V1 x to PRO V1 It was one year ago at the 2023 Scottish Open when Coughlin made an important equipment change, moving from her Pro V1x golf ball to Pro V1 . Having been a longtime Pro V1x player, Coughlin started testing both models early last season to make sure she was still dialed in. She put the lower-flying, lower-spinning Pro V1 in play for the first time in Scotland, and found she was able to better control her flight and spin, especially in windy conditions. Said Coughlin: “For the Scottish last year I was like, ‘okay, I'm going to give the regular Pro V a try to see if that'll help, especially into the wind.’ And I saw a huge benefit and an improved ball flight with [Pro V1]. So then I just kind of stuck with it the rest of the year and I've been using it ever since. ...” “Controlling my distance I would say is my biggest strength, in terms of I can take a little bit off this if I need to and [the ball] can go a couple yards shorter, or if I really need to step on something, it can go a couple yards longer. Just having that confidence that it’s going to do what I want it to do is very high.” Coughlin reiterated the importance of trusting her ball flight in the wind in her press conference Sunday evening: “I really struggled in the wind up until last year when I came to this event, and it's something that I've struggled with. But I've started to kind of get figured out and a lot of it is just trying to not fight it too much and let the wind do what it needs to do and trust it as much as you can.” AMATEUR | U.S. AMATEUR The 124th U.S. Amateur began with 84 percent of the field teeing up a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball – and ended with a Pro V1 player holding the trophy at Hazeltine National Golf Club. Holding to a 1-up lead, the champion found the fairway on the 36th hole of the championship match before sticking his Pro V1 to approximately 20 feet from the hole. The approach ensured a winning par and a place in history for the 124th U.S. Amateur champion, who finished off his opponent with 2-up match victory on Sunday. TITLEIST IS #1 BALL, TOP CHOICE TEE-TO-GREEN AT HAZELTINE Titleist was the overwhelming #1 ball at the U.S. Amateur, with 84 percent of the field – including the champion (Pro V1) – teeing up a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball. Titleist was also the most played driver (45%), fairway (38%), hybrid (32%), utility iron (51%), iron (44%), wedge (55%) and putter (29%) this week at Hazeltine, topping the counts in every major equipment category: In a field of 312 players, 261 teed up and Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball (84%), more than 10 times the nearest competitor (25). 142 players (45%) gamed a Titleist driver, more than double the nearest competitor (64/20%). Titleist was also the most played fairway (138/38%) and hybrid (28/32%). Titleist iron sets were in the bags of 137 players (44%), over 80 more than the nearest competitor (54, 17%). More than half the utilities in play were Titleist (90, 51%). Of all the gap, sand and lob wedges at Hazeltine, 55 percent were Vokey Design (507), over three times the nearest competitor (147/16%). On the greens, there were 90 Scotty Cameron putters in play (29%), compared to 74 (24%) for the nearest competitor. DP WORLD TOUR | D+D Real Czech Masters Carding the low round of the day, Titleist Brand Ambassador David Ravetto earned his maiden DP World Tour title with a final round 8-under 64 to claim a four-shot victory. Ravetto, playing his Pro V1 golf ball and 14 Titleist clubs , began his final round with six front-nine birdies to go out in 30, before adding three more birdies on his way home. The Frenchman finished the week with a field-best 27 birdies. Over four rounds in Prague, Ravetto ranked first in Strokes Gained: Tee-to-Green, gaining 11.6 strokes on the field. More than seven of those shots came from his approach play (+7.08, 2nd). Ravetto hit 87.5 percent greens in regulation (T1) and finished 14th in SG: Putting (+3.92).

Tanigawa, who shot the low round of the week on Saturday with a 9-under 61, made 18 birdies and two eagles over three rounds in Calgary. His 17-under total was good for a two-shot victory. KLPGA Tour | The Heaven Masters Titleist Brand Ambassador Sohyun Bae emerged victorious from a three-hole, sudden-death playoff to earn her second win of the season. Bae – gaming her Pro V1 golf ball, NEW GT3 driver, GT2 fairway, T100 irons, Vokey SM10 wedges and Scotty Cameron putter – shot rounds of 71-62-68 for a 15 under total before prevailing in extra holes.

Good afternoon Titleist team, My name is Nolan Nack and I have been playing golf for 3-4 years now. Just a couple weeks ago I hit my first ever hole in one at Bridgewater East Golf Course in Auburn, Indiana. It was a par 3 playing 137 and hit my pitching wedge. Once the ball went in the air I knew it was going to spin right and once it hit the ground it spun right about 10 feet right into the hole. I wanted to share this story with you and was hoping your team would be able to send a ball case for my ball. Thank you!

I’ve never hit a left dash pro V1X before. This hole in one happened during a work outing with customers. I went to PGA superstore the night before to buy knickknacks and gift bag items for the customers, and I’ve never seen the left dash in stock. It caught my eye so I bought a couple dozen. It was the second hole of the golf outing, par 3 166 yards. The two players before me hit the green and had great looking shots. We joked around about playing five dollars closest to pin. I was the third in my group to hit, and struck the ball well with an eight iron. It was on a good line. The ball bounced twice, checked a bit and rolled directly into the cup. My group was so excited that we were screaming at the top of our lungs. It was an incredible experience and one that I will treasure for my entire life. I was using Titleist irons as well. T200, eight iron. www.titleist.com/.../ylo74zt6lor4axfvbgtb www.titleist.com/.../jppj4buumo1qqwwbknw5 www.titleist.com/.../an0snimcrse97vrf0lil www.titleist.com/.../jkqj0h7wzyft9qcyhkbn

Golfing just nine holes with my wife and neighbor couple. We’re on tee box hole 6 Roadrunner course at Quail Creek Country Club in Green Valley,AZ. Waiting for the green to clear (play was at a slower pace than usual). The pin was at the back of the green apparently 158 yards to a slightly elevated green. I was first up and used a 7 iron. The ball was straight at the pin. We could see the flag but not the cup. As we walked up to the green my playing partner yelled back “hey there’s a ball in the hole”. As usual the wives didn’t believe him until they saw it for themselves. www.titleist.com/.../ktdvt93gas5hkd0umvii www.titleist.com/.../xxtbi8c6txagbpzcetqs

August 16, 2024: Indeed an evening to remember! During our Friday night couples golf league at The Links of Greenfield Plantation in Bradenton, Florida, I had my first-ever hole-in-one! Using my trusty sand wedge, I sent the ball slightly left of the pin. With a perfect kick to the right, it made a beeline straight for the hole and dropped in. What an incredible and unforgettable moment! www.titleist.com/.../k1ob9hvtyjnalyhe3otg

I was playing in my Member-Guest a few weeks ago (July 25-27). I took my cousin as my guest after taking his twin brother last year. They were 100% of the reason I got into golf at a young age (age 7). I also coach a high school golf team, and we had one of my boys on the bag for the weekend. I’ve played Titleist golf balls as long as I can remember, and now have 5 Hole-in-One’s, and two Albatross’s all with the best ball in golf. I only order Titleist balls for my golf team too! On day 3 (7/27), in our last match, with our flight all but sewn up, we were on our relatively short par 5 - 3rd hole playing 521 yards. My partner was in good position and laid up as he was getting a stroke off of me. Our opponents, who’re a 3 hdcp and 5 hdcp respectively also chose to lay up as they both got shots as well. Ultimately, they all had putts for net eagle, and never got to hit them. I’d hit a good tee shot leaving me 204 yards to a pin tucked front right, and guarded by trees encroaching the right side of the green. The pin is also guarded by green side bunkers, and a surface that that run’s to the back. I hit a 5 iron on my second shot, erring on the side of not going long, and immediately complained that I’d missed it (ugh, bc that’s what I do). In reality, I didn’t hit it clean, and from that yardage with that club it brings in a lot of trouble if you don’t catch it solid. I had no intent of attacking that pin position, but the ball was tracking that side of the green. Our caddy leaned in to quip, “well, that’s an aggressive line”. The ball appeared to cover the trees right, and we thought it might’ve covered the bunker too as my partner said he thought he saw it bounce. Once the other’s had played into the green we began searching the bunker as there was nothing on the green, and we couldn’t clearly see anything long. I assumed it must’ve plugged in the top edge of the bunker, but again didn’t find anything. Our caddy pointed out a rather sizable ball mark on the fringe that appeared fresh, but we kept looking and asking the group in front. I’d relegated myself to the fact that it must’ve run long and was likely in the hazard (not a lot of room long). As I walked past the hole, not wanting to be “that guy”. I gave a nonchalant look in the cup to see my “Titleist 24” staring back at me. We won our flight, but not the shootout…next thing I remember it was Sunday morning. (I’m on the left, cousin on the right). www.titleist.com/.../xf0ljz7aurwiflzs3mgr www.titleist.com/.../gtyb0ppbdwtpykdbo5mo

Very hot day and I was playing a very lackluster round of golf. Was last to hit on 17 a long par 3 at our club. Hit a 4 iron on string. A few of us thought it was long, one of the group thought it may be in, and low a behold it was in the cup!

My son, Andrew (16) got his first hole in one on 7/31/24. What made it even better was that he achieved this in competitive play during the 2nd round of the Buffalo District Golf Association Junior Amateur Stroke Play Championship at Willowbrook Golf Club in Lockport, NY. The shot took place on the 4th hole, a 168 yard par 3. Andrew had a 7 iron in his hand for the shot. He was using a pro V1x golf ball and Titleist T150 7-iron. What a shot it was.

Long post to recap a great day... This Tuesday I was fortunate to be able to attend a special Team Titleist event down at TPI and the production facility down in Oceanside CA. The email invite went out for a driver fitting and honestly I didn't need a new driver. My TSR3 is perfection. But I have always wanted to see TPI and I was very curious about getting to peak behind the curtain. Usually my schedule doesn't coincide with Team Titleist events but chance was on my side this time. The morning started with a tour of the production facility and as someone who likes to know how things are made this was eye opening. All of the team members who guided as through the various stages of production were very welcoming and extremely informative. I have never been inside a company where the level of pride and enjoyment in what they do is so palpable. One of my biggest takeaways was how many hands touch every single Titleist club. I had always assumed that the off the rack clubs were assembled by machines and then just packaged together. Thats not the case. Off the rack box sets get the same level of precision and care as each custom order. Same goes for metal woods and putters. It's crazy how many quality checks are done in the process to ensure every single club meats the highest of high standards thats Titleist operates with. A big thank you to Jason, Price and Doug who let us get a peak backstage to see how the magic is made. Next stop for the day was TPI for our fitting day. Soon as you drive onto the grounds it's like stepping foot into golf heaven. Every blade of grass is perfect. The facility designed for the best of the best. It's like stepping into a MLB stadium and suiting up next to all of the pros. Jaw dropping really. I don't know what it's like to be a tour pro, but man did they make me feel just as special upon arrival. Custom bad tags applied to each of our sets, full facility tour followed by a lovely lunch on the second floor open air patio with stunning views of the entire facility. Stephanie and Tom from the product design team came upstairs to meet everyone and explain all the new teach that went into the new GT lineup. I've seen them on all of the YouTube channels so it was very cool to get a one on one with these people so integral to the design of the clubs we play and love. First up for me was driver fitting. And to say I was nervous would be an understatement. Just being out there in that space feels surreal. I explained to my fitter Travis that I honestly didnt want or need a new driver, and when he asked if I could improve one thing about my setup what would it be? For me I simply asked to move the floor closer to the ceiling on carry distance. He liked the challenge and it was game on. We baselined my TSR3 and I hit the variety of shots that I see on the course. Low/mid flighted draw and high heely cut. These shots are not intentional, just a by product of bad swing mechanics. I have a premium Diamana shaft in my current setup and Travis said he didn't hate that setup for me but wanted to try a few things. We jumped around with several heads, trying my best not to take a peak at what he was swapping me into. I didn't think it was possible, but every head has improved sound and feel compared to the TSR. I hit some great shots with every head swap, but the big takeaway with Travis was I was hitting everything in a window that was too low and leaving yardage on the table. We landed on a GT2 head at 9° D2 sleeve setting (same as my TSR3) with a Tensei 1k Blue 65S. We moved the floor UP 16 yards and the ceiling UP 15 yards. Thats way more extra yardage than I expected and it was achieved by higher ball speeds across the face and VERY tight spin numbers. I have no idea how my heel strike didnt ballon well over 3k with the GT2 and still retain extra ball speed. We went through the rest of the metal woods just to experiment and I think a 7 wood might be in my future. There is no hard sell here. Simply working with a fitter who showed me that my hybrid is great but comes in very low and a 7 wood would essentially give me a little more yardage with higher height to help shrink the gaps we just created with the new driver. Then it was a physical assessment with Kayleigh to see what my body is doing right and wrong. I had some suspicion my lower body wasn't moving properly anymore and that was causing some over the top and extension issues. Sure enough I have some hip mobility limitations that is causing my back and torso to compensate. This is also why I have a sore mid back after a round. It wasn't an end of the world diagnosis, the opposite really. She helped provide me with some steps to help with the lower body movements and get my swing back into form. To wrap up the day I spent some time with Aaron for a wedge fitting/assesment. We went through the bag and when Aaron asked me what shot am I missing that I would like I explained that I dont have a shot in that releases. Everything checked up very hard. He reviewed my setup and gave me several different grinds to try and he decided that my current setup was actually perfect ( I did the online wedge fitting and was very honest with my data points) So Aaron said listen, your gear is perfect but maybe there are a few shots we could work on adding to me bag. And we literally just played around for 30 minutes and I added 3 different shot styles into my arsenal using gear I already own. I cant speak highly enough about this whole experience. This was a bucket list experience for me without question. A huge THANK YOU to everything I met at Titleist. I don't know any company on the planet that gives its customers and fans this type of experience. And of course I'll include pics of all the swag. It was quite a haul. www.titleist.com/.../tppfo5ecbfbsr5wqmazc www.titleist.com/.../fhoxazjriv9r4kcxf9qx www.titleist.com/.../fsnqgcrojelempypg7cc www.titleist.com/.../ftblhjnk7tncefegiyph www.titleist.com/.../fmcln4s04ni7lcqsif97

My back was hurting this morning and I didn’t want to play. We were hosting clients at my Club (Red Tail Golf Club in Avon, OH), so I had to grind through it. Glad I did! My first Ace! I actually gave up thinking I was ever going to get one. When it when it went in I saw it but I didn’t believe it….one of the other guys said “ I think that went in!” I still didn’t believe it, so I walked up to the green with my sand wedge and my putter. I didn’t see my ball anywhere, then one of the guys said “ you need to check the hole”…,so I did and there it was!….my Titleist ProV1x! I was so excited!!! Then I had to buy drinks in the clubhouse…glad it was a Tuesday and not a Saturday! :). Great experience…thank you Titiest!

Each year, a group of 12 of my high school and college friends gets together for a golf trip at the Lake of the Ozarks. We usually plan it for August so we can combine it with our fantasy football draft, which inevitably turns the whole event into a bit of a booze fest—just like any good golf trip. Last August (2023) was particularly memorable, with temperatures soaring over 100 degrees and all of us nursing hangovers. We were staying near Old Kinderhook and scheduled to play the course that day. By the time we reached the 7th hole, nobody was drinking anymore; we were all in survival mode. The hole was a 156-yard par 3, requiring a shot over a wide and deep ravine. I lined up and hit a nice little fade, landing just left and above the pin. The ball spun back perfectly, and as it dropped in, all four of us erupted so loudly that even the marshal heard us a few holes away. Once everyone else finished their shots, the marshal caught up with us on the green and made sure to tell every group behind us that I should have a high bar bill after the round. That kicked off some serious drinking that carried on through the night. Getting a hole-in-one with your best friends is one of the greatest feelings there is. P.S. I did not win fantasy last year www.titleist.com/.../s4ktwfetgfhgtdowzdpn

On Wednesday, August 14, 2024, I was playing a round of 9 at the Pleasant Valley Golf Course located in Payne, Ohio. On one of the holes, which was a Par 3 roughly 162 yards out, I set up hitting a 52 Degree Wedge that hits over the water. I hit the ball and it hit roughly 6 or 7 inches in front of the pin, and the ball rolled into the hole. I was hitting a Titleist 2 NXT TOUR S Ball. I’ve only been golfing for roughly two years, but it was the most surreal feeling in the world! www.titleist.com/.../hxan6pkmviqbyge6wj1x

My son Joey is a 16 year old with severe handicaps. He has had epileptic seizures from birth and has a hard time communicating. He helps out at the golf course that I work at. He puts carts away, cleans them, and hooks them up to their chargers in our barn. The kids love working with him and all the members treat him like he's a star. He loves to hit balls, playing and going to our new driving range. We just opened up a par three course and last week he played with me and my wife, and my two other children. It was the first time we all played together. On the 8th hole, he hit a nine iron from about 75 yards away, up the hill, perfect shot high in the air, it bounced twice and rolled into the hole for his first hole in one! (He felt like he got ripped off not being able to putt with the rest of us, so he pulled the ball out and putted one in from 15 feet)!! www.titleist.com/.../qn9dkxm4fojkdk4lanuo www.titleist.com/.../xflr7qavk7xp1fkdix4j www.titleist.com/.../kqyqcwyeymhlgroow1zi

The hole is over water and uphill so when the ball disappeared on the green I wasn’t sure what happened. When arriving at the green I even grabbed my wedge thinking maybe it had rolled of the back side… the moment I realized what may have happened, I got chills! I creep to the hole where I see my bright orange striped ball… unreal moment and so glad I can share it with everyone! My tab at the clubhouse bar wasn’t very fun though! Haha cheers to a great season of golf!

My firs hole in one happened on June 21st, 2024 - Father's Day. 6th hole at Hunter Golf Club in Meriden, CT. A 9 iron from 161 yards landed in the center of the green, took one big bounce and rolled gently into the hole. My playing partners were ecstatic but I was too overcome with emotion/shock/sadness to fully react. As I retrieved my ProV1 #5 from the hole I shared with them that not only was it my first ace, it was my first Father's Day without my Dad. He died from cancer in October 2023. I'm not much of a believer in help from above, but I still can't rationalize such a huge coincidence any other way. Maybe the Old Man was able to help guide the ball into the hole, maybe not, but I hope he saw it, and I hope he was proud. www.titleist.com/.../liv91rcke7cyjsm0yfon

I had played golf for the last thirty year but always a weekend golfer until the last 10 years that I started taking it more seriously. I have never made a hole on one until today. It occurred at hole number 3 at Lakewood country club in Lakewood California. It was a 136 yards par three over water from the tee box. I hit my 8 iron firm with a little draw to it. The ball landed about 15 feet to the right of the hole and started to trickle down the side hill towards the hole. As it got closer to hole the speed gradually decreased until it finally stopped by the flag. I could still see the ball from the tee box. I couldn’t believe it went into the hole until we drove up to the green. The ball was leaning against the flag. It was unbelievable. www.titleist.com/.../cnmghpsdi3cakw175mms

On my 59th round of the season, I recorded my first ever hole in one on the 165 yard #4 par 3 at Pebble Creek Golf Club in Becker Mn. Playing with a Titleist ProV1x that was given by one of my players during the Mn State High School boys golf Tournament, I hit a 9 iron at the front flag. As it was in the air, my brother in law had time to say, "wow that sounded pretty rough". The ball did land on the front first cut and slid right into the hole 5 paces on. We just looked at each other and started to laugh. www.titleist.com/.../tcnixzco4qc1mbi2xagy

My first ever hole in one was this past Sunday! I was playing the first hole of Cherokee Ranch Golf Club in Jacksonville Tx. This Par 4 was playin 312 yds with a creek to carry at about 280 yds. I hit my drive and the line was good, so I was looking closely to be sure it cleared the creek. To my surprise it landed on the green and disappeared around the hole. I asked the group if anyone could tell if it went in. We grabbed range finders to see where it went but no one could see it. We raced to the green where my cousin ran up to the whole to find the ball in the cup! This was the coolest moment iv ever had on a golf course! I was playing a Titleist Pro V1. Driver was a Cobra Aerojet LS www.titleist.com/.../t7yivwjxnbrrg7fyqa1d

Aaron Rai Earns His First Victory on the PGA TOUR, Lydia Ko Qualifies for the LPGA TOUR Hall of Fame
Loading...
PGA TOUR | Wyndham Championship Aaron Rai capped off a remarkable regular season of ball striking with his first PGA TOUR victory Sunday in North Carolina, hitting his Pro V1 golf ball to 6 feet, 7 inches on the 72nd hole and then draining the putt to win by two shots. Rai, who ranks No. 4 on the PGA TOUR in Strokes Gained: Total, gained a field-best +11.347 strokes gained tee-to-green, with more than eight of those strokes coming on approach shots (+8.747/1st). On Sunday, he led all competitors with more than four strokes gained on approach shots (+4.118), while hitting 15 of 18 greens with a field-best average proximity of 20 feet, 3 inches. For the week, Rai hit 59 of 72 (82%) greens in regulation, with a tournament-best average proximity of 25 feet. He also got up-and-down on 10 of 13 attempts (77%/T6). Rai’s victory was the 28th win for Titleist golf ball players this season on the PGA TOUR, seven times the nearest competitor with four. AARON RAI ON WHY HE PLAYS PRO V1 “I don't have many equipment deals because I want the freedom to choose what I feel is best regardless of contracts, regardless of any other incentives. And I certainly wouldn't be using the Titleist ball if I didn't think it was the best regardless of any other factor.” “A lot of the golf courses that we play week in, week out, the margin between hitting great shots and being in bad spots is so, so small. And there’s a lot of variables that go into hitting the ball. But certainly when I do my job well, it’s paramount that the ball is in the area that I want it to be. And I don’t think I’ve hit a shot where the ball hasn't been where I’ve wanted it to be when I feel like I've done my part. And again, the ball plays a massive role in that. And that's the reason that I’ve used the Titleist ball for pretty much the whole time that I’ve played golf. And that’s the reason why I’m still using it now.” “The flight, it has a great balance of height and spin. I’ve probably been using Pro V1 since I was nine or 10 years old, and I can’t really see myself ever moving from it. I just feel if I do my job, I feel like the ball hits the windows that I expect them to be in.” “The feel of it around the greens is second to none. Feel is also associated with sound. Hearing a certain note off the irons, hearing a certain note off the wedges, same off the driver. I quite like softness and I feel like it really gives that, even with the fuller shots. I probably feel it more around the greens, but it’s just got that nice balance of softness, and just what it does as soon as it’s off the face is just in the right area for me.” AARON RAI ON HOW HE MARKS HIS PRO V1 www.youtube.com/watch “I get the Pro V mark, put my device around it, put a line around the whole ball. It gives me feedback for line, gives me feedback for roll in practice. I also like to add a black mark in line with the Titleist, so that gives me a focal point to look at when I'm over the ball. It helps keep my head a little bit more steady. Then to finish off, I put four initials, which signify family members. Those are L-O-N-F, and I do that around the Titleist.” TITLEIST IS MOST PLAYED DRIVER AT WYNDHAM, MOST PLAYED ON TOUR IN 2024 This week at the Wyndham Championship, 40 percent of the drivers in play were Titleist (63). NEW GT drivers , available now for fittings worldwide, accounted for 45 of those Titleist drivers, more than the nearest competitor’s total number of drivers (34, 22%). So far this season on the PGA TOUR, Titleist drivers have been played in competition 1,744 times (37%). The nearest competitor has been played 1,025 times (22%). LPGA TOUR | LYDIA KO MAKES HISTORY BY QUALIFYING FOR THE LPGA HALL OF FAME Lydia Ko , adding to a career that includes 20 LPGA titles and two major championships, has officially secured her place in history, earning the final point she needed for qualification into the LPGA Hall of Fame. KO ON HER TITLEIST GOLF BALL “I’ve used the Titleist ball for a really long time and I can speak from my experience that every time I’ve tried something new I’ve been able to see a difference, and I just love how it is the #1 golf ball. It’s not just an advertisement. It is something that I believe and something that I really trust. The golf ball is such a crucial part of the equipment standpoint and in the game.” PGA TOUR CHAMPIONS | Boeing Classic Stephen Ames (Pro V1) made four back-nine birdies to close in 67 and win his 9th title on the Champions Tour. Ames’ ballstriking was dialed in this week, as he hit 42 of 54 greens in regulation (78%, T3). The win marked his third of the season. JGTO | Yokohama Minato Championship Playing his Pro V1x golf ball along with his TSR2 driver, blended set of T-Series irons, Vokey SM10 wedges and Scotty Cameron GOLO putter, Titleist Brand Ambassador Ren Yonezawa shot four rounds of 67 or lower (66-67-65-64) to earn his second JGTO victory of the year.

I wasn't playing too well being 3 over after the first 3 holes. On the 4th hole, a 201 yrd par 3, I was just thinking about making good contact to hit the green. I hit a 6 iron and made good contact indeed. The ball hopped once before the green and 1 or 2 small bounces on the green and disappeared near the hole. I was reasonably confident that the ball went in the hole! Being a longer yardage hole, I wasn't 100% until we drove closer to the hole and sure enough, my first hole in one! What a terrific feeling, and glad to share the moment with a golf buddy whom I golf plenty with. www.titleist.com/.../kaykxeyekwkspk2eux4c

I was playing in a scramble in memorial of one of my high school buddies who passed away shortly after Christmas 2022. Two of my teammates teed off before me, and I hit a pin seeking tee shot that landed just past the hole. It appeared to come to a stop and everyone was congratulating me on a good shot. Our last guy hit his shot and we all started walking to the carts. When I put my 9 iron into my bag I looked at the green and I didn’t see my ball. I asked my buddies where my ball was and one of them used their range finder to look and they told me they didn’t see it. At this point we started to get excited. We drove up to the green and I walked up to the hole and my ball was there. I said “You’ve got to be kidding me, it’s in the hole!” At this point our group went into full chaos, screaming, yelling, and hugging each other. I’ve played golf for 15 years and that was my first ever hole in one. It was made even better due to the fact it was during a special event, but also that I did it with guys I played with on the high school golf team. One of the guys I was playing with is the brother of my friend who passed away. Definitely a moment I’ll cherish for the rest of my life. www.titleist.com/.../fbgazmautwhzzthtbxm8

While playing the par 3 fourth hole at The Preserve at Turnbull bay in New Smyrna Beach .i while waiting on the tee for the first off are skins group to get to the greeen I shot the pin at 138.1 yard over water and they tucked the pin behind the front bunker . I teed up my Prov1x and hit a soft 8 iron just behind the bunker and thought ok should have a decent putt.. we pull up to the green and didn’t see a ball I grab my wedge and putter thinking well it could have spun back off the green and every in the Foursome said check the hole . I walked over and immediately said it’s in the hole and we all erupted and the group on the tee wait was cheering and yelling. This was my first hole in one I’ve been playing since i was young and this is why we play the game for these feelings .. So I won the closet to the pin and skin all thanks to the Prov1X it’s the #1 ball in golf for a reason . www.titleist.com/.../xqxejhumszbwm3rovzfw

It was a rough start to the round. Playing in a scramble and was not feeling well at all. Contemplated stopping after 3 as I was in a lot of pain. Decided to pound the water and power through. I am so happy I did. After making a self birdie on hole 10, we make our way to hole 11 that is playing 153 yards. I take out a 9i and play a slight 3-4 yard draw. The ball is in the air and I just have a feeling it's going to be perfect. We were not sure if it went in or not, but it looked so good. When we got up to the green and looked in the hole, the biggest smile appeared on my face. After playing for the last 18 years, winning multiple tournaments, playing college golf, being a +3.7 handicap, l finally found the elusive Hole-in-one! www.titleist.com/.../vghe9oqwhslhhfjfcufl www.titleist.com/.../ecpnsizw0oyacs0jljue www.titleist.com/.../mcgkiu2vjpakn2d1lf31

i was playing with my 32 year old grandson. The 6th hole is 160 yards. I hit a solid 8 iron, it took one bounce, checked up nicely and curled into the hole. I've had 2 aces in the last year after going 65 years without one. I've been playing Titleist balls since high school golf in the 70's. I remember those great Balata 100's. they flew like crazy and spun like crazy. But if hit a one in the belly you just threw it in the trash. www.titleist.com/.../mt04c8p6cc0oagmbpqfd

I was playing at Three Crowns Golf Club in Casper, Wyoming with my grandson, Cory. We were on the 6th hole, 160 yards elevated tee with water all the way to the front of the green. i hit a solid 8 iron with a little draw. It took one bounce, checked up nice and curled into the hole. It was a really special moment because my grandson was there. Actually on the 4th hole which is a par 3, and 180 yards, my grandson just missed one himself. He almost stuffed it on the fly. His ball mark was just off center, about an inch short of the cup. That would have been something if we each would have gotten one the same day. I actually wish his would have went in instead of mine. I was playing a Titleist Pro V1x, #7. I had bought some # 7's because it was my baseball number when i was younger( A Mickey Mantle fan of course) I'm 68 years old and have been playing Titleist balls since high school golf when we all played those great Balata 100's. God did they fly and spin. I had never had a hole in one and I've been fortunate to have had 2 in the last year. I will play Titleist balls forever.

New to the discussion threads and thought I would ask all you seasoned Pro V1 pros out there... I've been gaming Pro V1s and love them. My swing speed is about 102mph driver and 82mph irons. My daughter is trying out for varsity high school golf and she's been through a few balls for fit. Being a Pro V1 fan, I asked her to try it out and she's been gaming it for the past few months. She compresses her irons well, and is working on getting her swing speed up, but is closer to 88mph driver and 75mph irons. She seems to like Titleist Pro V1 (they cost more but she doesn't lose as many and she likes how they deliver consistent performance). Is there an ideal SS for Pro V1s? Should we be considering something else in the Titleist line-up for her or should she play the ball she can grow into? Appreciate any insight.

I was playing an early round before league night with a few guys and hit an 8 iron from 169 on hole #8. We couldn't tell if it went in or not due to a shadow on the green. One of my friends was coming off of hole #1 and watched it go in! He called me right away because we weren't hollering and could tell that we couldn't see the shot go in. He quickly ran over to the back side of the green while on the phone and asked what ball did I hit. I said Titleist Pro V1 #85, he said get your check book ready because you're in the hole! It was my first hole in 1 and very happy to buy drinks at the clubhouse! www.titleist.com/.../woszrsnxz2nde7pag8yy

Firstly thank you so much Will and everyone at Team Titleist for making this happen. It Was a fantastic opportunity so thanks again. So if you wasn’t aware, Foxhills Golf course is based in Surrey very close to Sunningdale Village. If you have never been to the area you really are spoiled for choice when it comes to Golf courses, Sunningdale, Sunningdale health, foxhills, Wentworth, Queenswood & Walton Health to name just a few. I decided to book a AirBnb 5/10 minutes drive to the golf course and got easy access from Sunningdale train station. The kind taxi driver who kindly took me to the course had explained the course across the road Queenswood is pretty much as close as we would get to Augusta in the UK, never seeing it I wouldn’t know but I do know it’s a invite only golf course and just from the entrance it looked like a very special place indeed. So only a minute down the road we arrived at Foxhills GC, and by the size of the gates at the entrance I knew this was going to be a very special location to play golf. After the 3 min drive up the drive way we was welcomed by staff directing us to the Pro Am parking area and registration area for us to sign in, we was welcome by 2 very lovely young lady’s who gave us are passes for the day and was informed of which hole we would start, which was a shotgun start on the day. At this point we didn’t know who are pro was so we started to have a look around the complex, but certain areas were VIP or Tour Pros which was cool as it was mainly just the locker room and restaurant area out of us. So my self and the 2 other lucky lads decided to use the range and chipping area and putting greens. At this point I’d was pretty much rubbing shoulders with the pros, I started of on the putting green and took a few steps were I was dropping balls next to Richard Bland and Andy Sullivan and kind of said to myself… Just follow suit and make some putts. I decided to introduce my self to Andy as he was playing a Full bag of Titleist and had mentioned to him how we was here to his delight he just said embrace it and have a cracking day and asked who we was playing with, we said we don’t know so he pulled his phone out and said your playing with a LIV player.. we was like cool who is it we said he replied Lahiri ! BUZZING! he kindly introduced us to him and had a brief chat before heading our own ways to the driving range. Unfortunately it was small and fitted around 10 players at a time so there was a little que. we got onto the range were we was given buckets of balls of are choice, PRO V PRO V1X etc, stepped onto the range to be put next to Titleist staffer Wade Ormsby who was so kind and generous with his time also and allowed us to take photos etc. Walking up to the 12 tee past the 18th tee box we bumped into PGA TOUR & Professional Michael Block, no as cool as he might seem on the tele his just the same off it, we had such a laugh with him for 10 mins talking about the hole in one at the PGA CHAMPIONSHIP and plying with RORY and his friends from the GOOD GOOD YouTube videos. We got to the 12th were are Pro & Caddie was waiting and made us feel welcome and at ease, he had said he loved these days as loved to give something back to the game of golf which was refreshing to hear. Though-out the round he was such a nice guy, his caddie Tim was a real blast and helped us read putts and spoke about the details they go into when preparing for tournament events and it was such a insight to seeing it on such a detailed level. We spoke about Bryson and how he is as a person and how his good for the game, to Life on LIV and how it’s allowed him to be more of a family man, spoke about his early days on the EUROPEAN TOUR and how he managed to get a PGA TOUR card into his though process on every shot, even to the point where Tim the caddie was saying everything from 150 yards out there thoughts were to Hole in!! So after a slowish start he turned the after burnings on and was -6 before we knew it which was helping us as a team for the competition event. In a nut shell he was just fantastic to be around. After the round we was given dinner and drinks and was informed off the presentation would be starting soon. We got a tap on the should to turn around and see it was our Pro Lahiri again saying… you know why I’m here dont ya? We was like no way have we won hahahaha he said close but not out right. So we came 3rd overall on count back and lost to Tom Lewis’s team in second place with a score of -37 and the winners winning on -40 who happened to be Foxhill members ! We came away with a Titleist Duffer bag which was a nice treat along with the freebies from the international series them self so overall we was very happy indeed. By this time it was shutting down so we all decided that was that and it was time to hit the road. I just want to express my gratitude to Titleist for allowing me and 2 others to represent them at this event. It truly was a fantastic day and one I won’t forget in a hurry. Kind regards Simon Worsfold www.titleist.com/.../mtxxpu1hgfslu2xv3uh3 www.titleist.com/.../klvgzrduc8vojipnnp59 www.titleist.com/.../ogly9z1sjhbpwr5vkjgl www.titleist.com/.../myl7rm8evbwifql6ibdd www.titleist.com/.../xeykzlzoce8u1m4qg9z3

Hi all Well, what can I say, apart from I am still on cloud 9 after getting an invite to a once in a lifetime opportunity. To say it was being like a kid in a candy shop is a huge understatement. So many lessons have been taken away, so many memories also. I'm sure there are going to be quite a few threads about the day, so I won't bore you, I'll just share a few photos along with a heart felt that you to Will Sutton, everyone at Team Titleist, everyone at the Woburn Performance Fitting Centre and in the tour fitting team and also thank you to Garrick Porteous for his time also showing us how we all aspire to hit a golf ball. It is the opportunism that Team Titleist gives is like this that sets Team Titleist up well above any other golf brand in my opinion. Thank you again for this amazing opportunity Ian www.titleist.com/.../tkbxm7klfafq2mlmf4q8 www.titleist.com/.../vdlfrukdtvjpxy9z8jsh www.titleist.com/.../iw0moj3k8lzy8oherl2n www.titleist.com/.../bpz7v6xfjpjheffcemnw www.titleist.com/.../t7vt1kxshdgtj5yiyjjz

On July 22, 2024 I got my first Hole In One!! I played at Richmond Hill Golf Club in Ontario, Canada. The 4th Hole is a Par 3. It was 154 yards to the Hole. I'm 68 and have been playing golf for 17 years. I used my 7 iron. I knew it was a good shot and would be very happy if the ball was on the green. My eyes are good . I can see the flag but really could not see the hole. One younger guy Eric 33 says I think it's in the hole. Mike the other younger guy same age says. "It's definitely in the hole I was watching the ball roll and then it just disappeared ". I didn't want to get too excited just in case but my heart was pumping a lot faster then normal. After the other 3 guys hit I was walking to the green I didn't see my ball near the Hole. So I went to the Hole with my HEART REALLY POUNDING NOW and saw my Titleist PRO V1x ball in the CUP. It was a Dream Come True. My First Hole In One!! My Happiest Golf Day EVER! It was also the closest to Pin Hole to boot.. I kept and marked my ball which went into my bag for safe keeping.

As stated perviously, the plan to change my entire bag to Titleist and its happening! I just added the TSR1 6 Hybrid to my TT Build. I will make this short and it's intended for newer members of TT just wondering what Titleist is all about. Let me say the TSR1 driver, 3M have been fantastic new clubs in my bag. And the MMT Speedmesh shift is absolutley a game changer for me. I swing easier and the ball goes further. I choose the 12D Driver and set it to 11.25 flat. It really blows my mind to see high the ball climbs, just like the big boys! Lol. I've tinkered with the 3M, but put it back to factory sure fit setting. Just added the 6/23D Hybrid. Hybrids are a different breed. I have not had one in my bag for a long long time. I am getting use to its tendencies. But the feel and trajectory are fabulous. Next week I will golf everyday and play with the settings on the 3 and HB. Yes there are 14 clubs in my bag like everyone else. However, the Driver and 3 wood have been a big part of lowering my scores. Three times the last 2 weeks, league play 9 holes have yielded 41 scores, of which two rounds included a dreaded double. Par, would have been 39 in both. And my index is a 17. Oh well it's golf. My point is as a golfer trying to improve, the performance of these new clubs are moving me in the right direction. That's what Titleist is All About for me these days. I am glad I went with my gut to set a goal of all Titleist in the bag by 2025. Hit Em Straight! RJ Unleashed

I got my first hole-in-one on July 29, 2024. It was hole #9 at Hiawatha Golf Club in Canton, South Dakota. It was 175 yards with a 5-iron. The ball was a #3 Pro-V1. My witnesses and I were not positive it was in until I looked in the hole. After over 40 years of golfing, I was pretty convinced I was never going to get one, but I am glad I was wrong! www.titleist.com/.../l4zdppfjtgmh071iwrjh

Super excited to start playing these. I think it’s absolutely phenomenal that they have added the alignment marking on them. Now I know everyone is gonna say “Well that’s what a sharpie is for” lol. I currently mark my balls this way so it’s handy to just pull them right out of the box and on my way. What’s everyone’s thoughts?

I like the look of the new golf balls just wish they would also cater towards women with other color options. No chance to choose Pink just basic blue, black, green and red. Just another option that I have no interest in without using my normal color I mark my golf balls with.

I've only had one in my entire life. Monday, 16 July 2001. I was 17 years old and still pretty bad at golf. But I got to the 3rd hole at Modderfontein Golf Club and had a 160m (175y) shot to a tough pin waiting for me. My mom was walking the course with me for the first time ever and having started birdie, par, I rifled off the excuses about how I hated the 3rd. It was a full 6i (my least favourite club), and it required a draw to get to the pin (my natural shot shape is a fade), so I was attempting to lower expectations for a hole I normally bogied. I proceeded to flush the 6i straight at the greenside bunker on the left, which had a caddie standing in it raking the bunker. I was so worried about killing the caddie, that I never watched my ball take a kind bounce off the top of the bunker and roll into the hole. While I was screaming FORE and watching the caddie dive out of his foxhole like a WWII soldier in Bastonge, the ball settled in the bottom of the cup. My mom screamed with joy and took off for the green. I stood in bewilderment hearing the fourball in front of me clap. As I reached the green seconds after my mom, I watched her reach in and take the ball out of the hole saying "see". I was very upset she did that, so she put the ball back and I got the honour of being the second person to remove MY hole in one ball out the hole. To make matters worse, the ball I used to get the hole in one (a 2000/2001 Titleist) was chewed by my mom's dog a couple of days later. I still have the pink tee and the ball, but its a mess. I'd love a replacement 2001 392 ball if any are lying around? www.titleist.com/.../gfztozcjxjgpmjj9ncpm

Again at Shadowmoss Golf and Country Club in Charleston, SC this time on Tuesday, June 4, 2024 411 days after my first hole in one.. Our shot gun start began on #17. After 4 holes, I wasn't playing very well and one of my partners suggested that I lead off. No. 3 playing at 146 yards with pin back right. Elevated green with water front and right, huge bunker left and long puts you in no man's land. I just wanted on the green and my go to club when playing poorly and needing something straight is my 6 hybrid which is usually about 145 yards. I had been working on shortening my back swing and turning better. The practice paid off as when I struck the ball it was flying dead straight at the pin. I had no idea on distance and once the ball landed on the green, my poor eyesight failed me. Ny partners thought it went in but they weren't sure. This time I did walk straight to the pin. and was pleasantly rewarded with my ball looking back at me. I think it is time to get my eyes fixed! www.titleist.com/.../uqree8araqsihaw0whmc www.titleist.com/.../d4o7dnmymrmmgzkbtsbp
