    Hey Team Titleist, 

    Our team recently had the privilege to meet and spend a great day with some our loyal Team Titleist members in California at Maderas Golf Club. It was a day filled with great golf, camaraderie and even a little education. It's always great to put a face to a name, and meeting our members in person allows us to do that.

    Please enjoy a few photos from the day in the slideshow above. We will share a video highlighting all three invitationals from Boston, Chicago and San Diego shortly after the new year. 

    Thanks to everyone who took the time to join us, and we look forward to more invitationals in 2015! 

    Talk soon,

    The hole pictured on slide 16 is actually the 14th.  A great hole with a forced carry to an uphill green on the other side of a gaping ravine. An awesome hole.

    again as i wrote before I have been blessed to meet such great people playing golf.  I can say that this topped all of my golf adventures to be invited was a blessing and to drive to play and play such a beautiful golf course, it was "AWESOME"   Team Titleist thank you again as I was very fortunate, and had a great time.  I really enjoyed receiveing my new Volkey Wedge, it is beautiful, never had something related to golf custom made with my name engraved on it. Bubba, thank you and it was a pleasure meeting you and my two other partners, Frank and Mr Houston TX.  The golf was just incredible.

    Great slideshow Bubba.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Looks like another awesome TT event. The camaraderie is always top notch, equaled only by quality of the courses on which  they are held.

    No other company treats their customers with such respect as Acushnet/Titleist does IMO.

    Looks like a great time was had by all in attendance. These TT Invitationals are what make Titleist special in that they provide a great medium for interaction between Titleist Staff and TT Members.
