For me, similar story... loved the look of the Titleist clubs growing up, but could never afford them. Got my first full set of 835's (and wish I still had them) and slowly built out the bag from there. Now it's a full bag and a lifelong journey with a quality brand that continues to fuel my passion for golf.

My first Titleist was a Scotty Cameron Pro Platinum Newport II back in 2001
After that I got my first Irons 822 OS
Then i got another Cameron, a Studio Design 1.5
And after that my first set of blades 690MB
I've used almost every set of blades, Players Irons, Driver, Fairway Woods, Hybrids...... Cameron Putters...... Vokey Wedges......
Every ProV1 ever released......

Wow, that goes way back. I remember when my father got me a 975D driver with that Speeder shaft in 8th grade to get ready for my high school golf team. My second shot on the course with it wound up at least 20 yards farther than any drive I’d ever hit on that hole.
Funny sidebar, I wound up sleeping with that driver next to my bed that night. I was that excited about finally having a Titleist driver!

DCI 981 Irons that were gifted to me. Played them for a few years. Love those clubs. Hope to get into a set of T200-T350s sooner than later.

2023- My First-Tee Phoenix Coach gave me his old high school clubs: 704 CB's. Haven't looked back since, currently playing GT3, T250 U, 620 MB's, SM10's, and have a few Scottys!

First time using a Balata golf ball in high school. First time I hit it flush, it was a thing of beauty. Unfortunately, as a new golfer, I didn't hit it "flush" all the time, the ball had multiple "smiles" on it. After the round, it didn't look that round. After that, swore i never would play that ball again, switched to a DT, now playing a ProVix, 30 years later.... Been infatuated with all things Titleist since. How says you don't remember your first love!!! Thanks, Titleist, for the memories.....

My first full golf iron set was the DTR (I still see it occasionally since I gifted it to a good friend), 2 thru PW. This was in early 90s and it's been a fun ride.
