Titleist Golf equipment is one of the world's best and most popular brands of golf equipment and apparel. It is manufactured by Accushnet Company, which was started by Philip 'Skipper' Young. He was a golfer and was extremely frustrated by his lack of consistency while playing golf. He then decided to X-Ray the golf balls to find out if they were the problem. Through this brainwave, he found out that the rubber cores in the balls were not properly centered. He then patented the process to manufacture Titleist golf balls which were correctly centered in 1930. Soon after, it became the most popular golf ball to be used. Titleist Golf Equipment - As the ball became increasingly popular and was used in all professional tournaments and even private clubs, the company decided to branch out into the other golfing equipment. Way back in 1963, Titleist acquired Bull's Eye Putter and changed its name. Titleist then went on to make putters, drivers, irons and even the Titleist bag. Now you can get all golfing equipment made by Titleist and you can even wear golfing apparel with the company's brand name. Why Titleist? - Over the years, Titleist golf equipment has built up a solid reputation.

Anyone fairly new to the game of golf is going to be knowledgeable about hybrid golf clubs. They now form part of everyday golf and the majority of golf bags will feature one or more of them. But it was not always the case.


Until quite recently the selection of clubs available to a golfer were restricted to those that had been around for decades; namely golf driver, fairway woods, long irons, short irons, wedges and putters. Even though there had been tremendous technological advances in the growth and development of golf equipment over many years, the items in the golf bag looked much the same in the 1990's to what it did in the 1960's. What this meant was that golfers, for the longer second shots, tee shots on long par 3's etc, were forced to use fairway woods or even the difficult to control long irons e.g. 1, 2 and 3 irons.

Playing with long irons did indeed require some skill and for that reason there came a proliferation of the easier-to-hit fairway woods. It was quite common to see golfers with 3, 5, 7, 9 and in some cases 11 woods. Reason for this, quite simply, was that woods are simpler to hit and control and they get the ball into the air quickly. But that only works generally from a nice fairway lie and thus this solution was not ideal. New advances in golf equipment, especially the long iron area, were required.

Like all good ideas it is a little murky in terms of where the idea for the golf hybrid originated or who actually introduced the very first club. An early entry into the marketplace was certainly the Taylormade Rescue Club and this club became the benchmark for all that followed.

So what was the thinking behind the development? Well, basically, it seems to have come from the thoughts of any golfer that has ever played the game - produce a golf club which is easy to hit from the tee, fairway, bunker and semi-rough, is forgiving and high flying, and avoids the need for me to master the skill-sets required to use long irons. And the development worked and continued.

Today it is highly unlikely that you're going to see anyone carrying a 1 or 2 iron and equally you will be challenged to find fairway woods above a 5 wood. The original rescue club model has been enhanced by the addition of utility clubs and hybrids that replace irons right down to the 6 iron. The majority of professional golfers carry hybrid or rescue clubs in their bags and with that the club is now standard kit. On that basis I guess we should all be looking to make the change and buy golf clubs of this type.
