If I had to choose one brand, then I will have to go with TITLEIST.

Reason: All my scoring clubs are Titleist. Wedges and putter + Pro V1 (Ball).

I really value short games and it is really where a player can make a huge difference.

Since I use one swing for all my woods and irons, I can live with any brand for the long game. However I really like the feel, performance, looks, etc of TITLEIST for short games. Plus I would not give up the Pro V1 ball either.

So my vote goes to TITLEIST.

Cleveland for me... They offer the best of both worlds IMO. High performing, players clubs while not sacraficing forgiveness.

Drivers & Fairway Woods - Very good and very underrated. Launcher series has been one of the best for all levels of ability.

Irons - One of the best and offers clubs for everyone
Wedges - The best
Putters - Now that Never Compromise is part of their lineup, they a solid upper tier putter.

I would say Titleist for single digit handicappers but Titleist doesn't make the best irons or woods for mid to upper handicappers

Callaway for the the beginner/higher handicap player. They are probably the most forgiving out there.

I love em. Like the classic look. They're versatile around the greens and just the right amount of spin for me on short approaches. Might be time to replace the 60 though, grooves are getting worn.

Nice. I've heard nothing but great things so I'm thinking about replacing my 588's with those.

I'd have to agree with "thrash13". The Taylor Made line is one of the few, but most equipped whole product Co's out there that can produce everything, for all level of players. From drivers to ballz.

#2 Titleist; but the irons are notorious for being hard to hit.
#3 Callaway; but just until 3/07 they didn't have a players club "X-FORGED".

This is obviously only my opinion.

Titleist for me. Going back to the very first post by Erik two years ago. I love my Scotty putter and Vokey wedge. I could easily replace my Cleveland GW with a comparably lofted Vokey and be very happy. The 905 is the best driver I have ever hit. Granted, I have yet to try any of the 07 crop. I just got this one, I don't need driver envy right now. I'm happy with my 3 Wood as well. My master plan is to add the 775cb's within the month.

The only hessitation I have is the hybrids. I love my Hogan and don't particularly love my 503H. It's tough to hit and doesn't go all that much farther than my Hogan. In fact, I would be more apt to hit an easy 3 wood than my 2 Hybrid right now. I have not tried the 585H yet. Anybody playing one that has an opinion either way?

Why don't you try Titleist's sister company Cobra's hybrid: the Baffler DWS? I think they make one of the easiest to hit clubs. I now have two of them and like them very much. Give them a try and let me know what you think.

I'm bringing this back. lol.

I think I'd play PING. I love their Driver, and utility club - not a huge fan of their irons though, but they make nice putters, driver, woods, and hybrids.

Cleveland guy here. HiBore driver and 3-wood, both have great weight distribution and real pop off the clubface. Halo 3H is a solid competitor in the hybrid market. I play TA1 gunmetal irons - hard to hit, probably a bit "ahead" of my skill level, but ooooooh when you strike them pure.... Cleveland wedges have a unflappable reputation. They lack any real putter candidate, admittedly......

Nothing in the swing is done at the expense of balance.

I might have to flip a coin between titleist and TaylorMade.

Driver-TM
Woods-TM
Irons-Titleist
Wedges-Titleist
Putter- I know the Scotty Cameron's are supposed to be great, but I love my new TM putter.

I have no idea which one I would have to choose between those...

Callaway, I already have their Driver and 5 wood and eventually the rest of my bag will be all Callaway. Having hit and owned various brands they just seem to fit me best.

Titleist. Reasons being:

No real way I could stick to one company. I'm too picky. I pick whatever gives me confidence standing over the ball. If it's a Cleveland, Callaway, Titleist, or whatever, and it doesn't break the bank, I'll buy it.
