It's a bit of a subjective question for me. I prefer different companies for different clubs. I am not so much a one brand guy - I am constantly looking for what is best for me, based on looks, feel and performance. I have never had to deal with customer service for any club in my life (and I have owned a lot over the last 25+ years).

Driver - I have always preferred TaylorMade drivers until the last few Burners, which I have not liked (looks, feel nor peformance). I guess my favorite now would be Callaway or Titleist.

Woods - I tend to like traditional shape, design and size in my woods. I have yet to hit the new Titleist woods so I can't comment on them too much other than I like the more traditional look of them. My current 3-wood (probably soon to be replaced) is a Mizuno F50, which I have always liked the look, feel and performance of (looking to replace because it's a steel shafted model and since I replaced my driver I have about a 40-50 yard gap between 3 wood and driver now).

Hybrids - To me this is a no-brainer. I really love the Mizuno hybrids and everything about them. I have owned several over the years and liked several (Callaway FT and Sonartec among the best), but have not liked any as well as the Mizuno. When I first bought the hybrids (and 3 wood) I was not yet a Mizuno convert - I was just looking for what I liked best and loved the Fli-Hi CLK's.

Irons - I have liked Mizuno for several years, but always ended up buying something else - usually because of price. Last fall I started looking at new irons and fell in love with the MP lines and decided to buy. I have truly never loved irons as much as the Mizzies. The feel is second to none, plus that have that traditional, simple look that is always good.

Wedges - I'm a long time fan of Cleveland wedges, having owned 588s, 900s, CG10, CG11 and CG14 models over the years (and maybe a couple other models I can't remember). When I got my Mizuno irons I had to buy new wedges because the gaps were much different than what I had been playing before so I bought Mizuno wedges. I really like them a lot. It's probably a pretty close call to which I like better now. I have also owed Nike, Callaway, Wilson and Vokey wedges and have never been that big a fan of any of them.

Putter - Odyssey - This is pretty much a no brainer as I have owned several over the years and even when I go away from them I end up coming back. I have owned TaylorMade Rossa, Scotty Cameron, Hogan and Ping, but have always come back to Odyssey with my tail between my legs.

    • Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.
    • No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁  
    • I use GPS;  it may not be as accurate, but neither am I.
    • Back in my Army days a "gooch" was a particular part of the anatomy. Example, say Okeechobee is the b-hole of Florida, then Belle Glade would be the gooch. Seems he wears his name well.
    • I can't say that I remember a lot of individual putts, but I do have one specific memory.  The first time I played the Old Course, I had hit a pretty good drive on the 6th hole.  I had about 60 yards left, and due to the swale in front of the green, there was no chance of flying a wedge on or near the green and having it stop on the green.  My caddie recommended either a running 7-iron chip or a putt, and I took the putter and a pretty hard swing.  The ball rolled over humps and through hollows, disappeared into the swale in front of the green, and re-appeared heading right at the hole.  I ended up maybe 12 feet away.  The caddie turned and held out his hand to shake mine, and said "Now THAT was a golf shot!"
