I would bet my left one that there is absolutely no difference between his old titleist and his nike in reality apart from what is written on the back.

Isnt the argument, dont titlesit throw the most darts at young and upcoming golfers (or at least used to) then not pay top whack once theyve made it hence most of the best players played titleist at one point and then moved onto to a higher paying brand
but then that would be a very dull thread title

I still don't buy all this stuff about the clubs being the problem.
Reading the enemy magazine last month there is an interview with Jack Nicklaus. Apparently he used different brands clubs depending what country/continent he was in and different sized balls on different tours.
And he was pretty good with all of them.

The main factor in players changing from Titleist clubs is that they invariably have to change ball as most companies now have their own. They have probably played the ProV or the X from being an amateur and are 100% comfortable with it. At their level a change in ball is a massive difference and it takes a long time to get used to it, some seemingly never do.

A recent Youtube video from Mark Crossfield pretty much proves this to be wrong, I don't think there is that much difference between most decent balls, especially for a pro!

I am sure the clubs have nothing to do with it at all mate! And I still don't think the op is 100% serious either!

Did you watch his video? Trackman backs up his opinion that the balls are not that different! I guess you know better however?

As much as I want to say that this is the biggest wind up thread I have EVER read, I guess I can't as I personally have never tried the irons or driver at all really. Who knows how good I could be!
If someone would like to sponsor me to see just how much better I could become with titleist clubs please PM me and I'll give you the address to send them to!!

Around the green there maybe little difference, off the tee is a different kettle of fish

Does a ball really make that much difference for a pro? Surely they would hit a shady ball better than most of us?

Absolutely, why do you think Luke Donald continued to use an older version of the prov1?

Do we really know what they're hitting? If Tiger was creaming his driver when he changed sponsors, it wouldn't be any problem for the new sponsor to re-badge it to look like one of theirs. Same applies to any individual club.

I think he said that it had more spin around the greens? I still don't see him dropping too many shots if he had to use the 2013 version however.

The ball is massive at the level these guys are at, why do you think so much heed is paid to who plays what ball when picking foursomes partners at the Ryder Cup, remember Tiger blaming Stricker's ball for his bad showing? Lets not forget that you can make stats show anything you like with a bit of selective manipulation, what we will never be able to measure is the feel in a top pros hands who strikes the ball consistently every time.
Proofs in the pudding as it were mate,the worlds best golfers played their best golf with Titleist gear.....I am sure the clubs have nothing to do with it at all mate! And I still don't think the op is 100% serious either!
