Whichever company has the bigger marketing budget.

Jokes aside, are you looking for a new set of irons? Any type in particular? I ask because you can purchase some really well made equipment from not so well know companies for a fraction of the cost. Just food for thought.

There is no "best" company. It's whatever feels good to the individual. Any of the top companies make quality equipment.

Ping. They were making today's "new irons" in the 90s with the Ping Eye 2.

Those were out before the 90's.

I knew this would get a ton of responses with some very opionated replies. My vote goes for any club from walmart ......

But in all seriousness, out of the clubs i have tried, i tend to always favor Ping or Callaway products. They are very durable and seem to fit my game quiet well. If only i had the money now to buy a set.

On a personal note, far too much emphasis is placed on clubs, a good player can play well with anything above a tobacco stick with a rock taped on the end as long as they are confortable with it.

Good clubs can inspire confidence though, but i hate going to the course and seeing retired guys playin with 2000 dollar sets and hitting tons of worm-burners while i'm making pars with my 200 dollar set.

Do you hate it because you are jealous? I am sure they make as many pars as you do.

It all depends on what you like to hit. A person might love a certain club, while another person might just hate it. Some guys prefer specific brands, others hate it, etc..

But I think it is generally agreed on here on the forums that the best irons come from Mizuno, Titleist and PING. I personally love Mizunos, feel completely neutral towards Titleist and absolutely dislike PING irons. (But this might change since the new i15 irons are a complete work of art)

As for drivers, I really like Clevelands, Mizuno again (MX700) and the new TaylorMade R9 looks interesting, though the very short product release cycle of TM puts me a bit off.

In the end, when you have a Cadillac CTS, a Mercedes S350 and a BMW 745i, it's pretty tough to give an absolute opinion about which make is the best. It all comes to personal preferences. Or else you'd see only one brand of clubs with all tour players/one luxury car company on all streets.

Terribly overpriced, mediocre cars? Not a very good analogy :P

E60M vs. XFR vs. CLS63AMG :P is more like it

I've always been partial to Cleveland. They're wedges are definitely top notch--as for irons, Cleveland, Callaway, Titleist, Nike, TaylorMade, and Mizuno are all making quality irons that really just bring it down to personal choice. Same goes for drivers.

early 80's actually. I dont think that makes them the best though. find titleist clubs to be the best, not because my entire set are titleist clubs with the exception of my driver, but because their products are good quality and perform great with my swing.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By DeadMan ·

      Day 238: played 18. Back 9 was pretty good after a rough front 9. Then worked a bit after the round at the range, just firming up some feels.

      When Greens Turn Grey: From Passion to Burnout?

      By NZ Golfer ·

      I found being part of a Great Golf Club renewed my love for the game and comps ..previously at my other club I was just a player with novice player mates or solo .and that was hard to progress and drive the passion when my job was very restrictive to playing in good weather and friends couldn't play as much...  that become a grind at times and gave up the game for couple years..but now work for myself and have clear goals and new GC with serious players ongoing comps and great course I can pretty much always get on .. some great Golfing friends I made playing in the weekly comps ..I'm loving it..  Still get down on my game and can walk off gutted ..but thats the game we wouldn't love the good round if we never had bad rounds So for me maybe dropping the pressure of the HC grind and more so enjoy playing comps with others serious on the game ...understand the game is hard ,enjoy the good times and your game will develop ...
