  1. Hey Team! 

    I want to hear from you - how long have you been part of Team Titleist and what is your most memorable moment?

    I'll start: 

    The moment that stands out most for me was the very first event I hosted up at Gleneagles.

    That day made me realise just how much you genuinely want to learn and absorb everything you can from the Titleist team. The engagement, the questions, the appetite to improve - it was incredible to see.
    But what stood out just as much was the community feel. So many of you already knew each other. You were sharing stories about your golf, the courses you’ve played, and of course the Titleist products in your bags. That was the moment it truly clicked that Team Titleist isn’t just about the equipment. It’s about connection, a shared passion, and being part of something bigger.



    Let's hear it below!

  2. Weel thats a tough one to just include one memory.

    However some highlights are:

    TRS driver launch event at Woburn 2022
    Frilford Heath event 2023
    All the goodies you get sent

    Can't remember how long ive been a member but has been many many years. All my clubs are Titleist as I honestly believe they are the best!

    Hi Will and Team,
    I've been a member of TT since 2008, but only in recent years have I managed to attend events or be a test subject.
    There have been many memories made and gaining friends along the way has been a bonus, and like you Will my first event was also Gleneagles, which does hold a special place in the heart.

    A Tour fitting at Woburn, having my Wedges tweaked by Will Harvey, getting into 'The Barn' was very special.

    However, I've been playing golf for nearly 40 years and made many Pars, Birdies, Eagles and of course a Bogey or a Double!!! a couple of Ace's too, but my best memory was the second hole par 5 at the Frilford Heath event, I called the shot from the middle of the fairway, both playing partners out the hole, I was 225 yards out with the wind of the left, I needed to play at the left bunker with a little fade, it went exactly how I planned with 1 bounce and disappear, The Albatross!!!! will never forget it!!

    Thank you to You and the Team for putting the events on and giving us these memories!!

    Hi Will & Team

    Played Titleist for over 20 years but only officially joined TT in 2015. Since then I have been very fortunate to have been able to make some great memories. From the first event we played at The Grove in 2017 where I still stay in contact with some of the guys I met that day. During the following years I’ve played in many events from Woburn to Frilford Heath and others. One highlight was been in the winning team at the TT shotgun last year.

    Probably the best memory for me was when four of us were picked to meet Bob Vokey and Will Harvey for a wedge fitting at Woburn one afternoon. To say it was like meeting your hero was an understatement. The nerves got the better of me and hilariously shanked my first wedge shot in front of him. It did get better from there and learnt so much from them.

    Looking forward to making more memories this year at the TT events and hopefully be able to defend the shotgun at St Ives

    I’ve been part of Team Titleist for a good few years now and it’s been a brilliant journey from those early forum posts through to getting along to events and properly meeting the people behind the profile names.

    My most memorable moments are definitely tied to the events — especially my day at Woburn in April 2024 for the GT fitting day. That was one of those proper “this is what Team Titleist is about” experiences. First-class fitting, being able to test everything properly, talk through numbers, ball flight and gapping in detail — but more than that, it was the atmosphere. Everyone there just wanting to learn, improve and talk golf.

    What really stands out to me though is the team behind it all. The Team Titleist representatives are unbelievably generous with their time. They never rush you, they answer every question (even the daft ones!), and they genuinely care about helping you get better. And let’s be honest — they’re incredibly generous with the gifts and little extras too. There’s always that added touch that makes you feel valued and appreciated as part of the community.

    A massive mention has to go to Will and his team at Titleist. The events they set up year after year are top class — brilliantly organised, welcoming, and always with that perfect balance of serious golf and good fun. You can see the effort that goes in behind the scenes.

    But like you said, it’s not just about the equipment. It’s the connection. Walking into an event and instantly feeling like you’re among mates because you’ve shared conversations on the forum about Pro V1 vs Pro V1x, new driver launches, or that one round that still annoys you months later — that’s special.

    Team Titleist isn’t just a brand community. It’s a group of golfers who genuinely support each other, want to learn, and enjoy the game together. That’s what keeps me involved and that’s why those event days — especially Woburn — will always stick with me.

    Looking forward to reading everyone else’s standout moments

    Morning all,

    I had the pleasure of attending my first TT event last year at JoG golf club.

    The whole day was extremely memorable, in particular the care and attention all of the TT Team gave all of us attending to make the day run smoothly.

    For me the most memorable part of the day was the Vokey wedge experience session, this was extremely insightful with the team not only spending time to talk through your existing set-up and what could work better, but also there knowledge and insights of tour players and what they look for and why. The addition of having some of the tour players wedges on hand to also hit some shots with made this session even more insightful.

    I am looking forward to attending more TT events and more amazing insights.

    Look forward to seeing you all soon,

    Hi TT,

    I can't recall exactly when I officially joined TT as a member but I would guess around 2014. I've always been a fan of the brand and my first ever brand new custom set of irons were Titleist (735.cm).

    My most memorable moment of being part of TT came when i was fortunate enough to be invoilved in the Pro-Am for International Series event at Foxhills. The whole day was a highlight of my golfing "career", a truly amazing experience. On our final hole of the day, the 200 yardish 11th, following a solid tee shot from out pro (Anirban Lahiri) all three ams (from TT) holed the same 20 foot putt for three team birdies, the absolute cherry on top of a wonderful day!

    We chatted and shared stories afterwards over a great lunch and couple of cold ones, and It also resulted in us sneaking a 3rd place finish. ,

    Hi Will,

    I remember my first TT event at Close House. Had not been playing golf long at that point and was nervous about attending an event with a load of good golfers!

    During practice on the range, my swing completely deserted me as nerves took over.

    A couple of lads could see I was struggling and took the time to come over and have a chat with me and help me out. After my round, as soon as I walked into the clubhouse, the same lads came over to check how my round had gone.

    From that point I was hooked on Titleist. As you say there is a real community feel and as well as trying to improve your own game, everyone wants each other to improve as well and are genuinely happy when others succeed

    I’ve played Titleist clubs and balls since the 90s - long before Team Titleist was even a thing!
    My first TT event though was in 2019 when I was invited by Titleist to a wonderful links course in Hunstanton to play in a pro-am prior to the PGA national club pro championship. The course was in such excellent condition and we were looked after as if we were pro’s ourselves. It set the bar for my Titleist experiences which have always been excellent and I got to meet some fellow Titleist enthusiasts that I remain in regular contact with.
    Thanks Titleist!
  10. Hi, Will and all thee TT team,

    Been a member for 4 years and every event has been memorable, the people I’ve met, the experience of playing top class courses and feeling valued and part of Titleist.

    My outstanding event was getting fitted for irons at Woburn last year, the whole day was way beyond my expectations. John my fitter has to be the most patient person I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting, 18 holes on the Marquis course was fantastic and then the absolute cherry on the cake, unbelievably all our specs had been sent to the fitting centre at St Ives where they built our clubs and somehow got them delivered back to Woburn for us to take home that day!!! Unbelievable an experience I will never forget.

    Hi Wil and Team,

    I was a late convert to Titleist when I bought my 716 AP's back in 2017 and joined TT, although I always lusted after DCI's back in the day.

    If I had to pick one memorable moment I would have to be arriving at Woburn for my SM7 wedge fitting. This was my first TT event and I was a very late replacement and was lucky to get the day off. From memory there were a few TT members with a few events under there belt in attendance.

    What a well organised event from the welcome and breakfast, product update, to the fitting on the range and short game area. Finally lunch and the Goody Bag before departure. All exceptional.

    I learnt a lot that day about Vokey's, but what stuck with me was the great community amongst the Titleist staff and TT members who were willing to share tips and experiences. Plus 4 grips were ordered on those 7's after one tip and I've been fitting them ever since.

    Since then I've been lucky to participate in product testing and have attended several TT events all with great memories. Taking part in the BMW International event at Bearwood Lakes was memorable and meeting up with a playing partner 6 years later at Burnham last year just shows how much Titleist and TT means this community.

    PS from the AP's and an assortment of brands the bag is totally Titleist with GT, TS, 250's, SM10 and Scotty.

    Morning Will,

    Looking at my profile, I signed up to TT back in 2011.

    I have been very lucky over the years to attend a number of TT events and to have been invited to a lot of extra opportunities that you just wouldn't get anywhere else!

    There are far too many memories to choose from, but I think I would have to go with attending the first TT event that was held in 2017; the TT Invitational at The Grove. That was the first event that Titleist put on, 12 of us turned up, not knowing each other or what to expect. We were blown away by the set up, hospitality, the educational experience's that were put on for us, food all day, 18 holes and some goodies, we couldn't believe it. I still talk to a lot of the guys from that day as many of us are still active on the TT forum, but we have kept in touch, see each other at TT events and try to catch up when we can.

    I mentioned above that I have attended many TT events over the years, all have been excellent. I can't wait to get going in 2026.

    Thanks Will, TT and Titleist for all you do!
  13. I think I joined TT in 2021 - I’d seen a few TT bag tags previously and wondered what it was. I’d posted a few times and was very pleased in January 2023 when my own TT bag tag arrived in the post - only to be gutted a few months later when it was stolen off my bag whilst I was hitting balls at the range in Greenwich.

    My first event was Frilford Heath - a fantastic day all round with new connections made (and a new bag tag!). Saunton in 2024 and three events last year - very much looking forward to this year too.

    It’s been great to be part of a community that is supported so generously by Titleist- the brand really stands out and delivers. It has also given me the chance to play others at their courses and host at mine as well as follow the many conversations on social media. The generosity of the brand is also shown by the members who clearly support and help each other out.

    Looking forward to seeing familiar faces and new ones !

    Embarrassingly I have been a member for 15/16 years, and only been to one event.
    Did a day at St Ives where we got to hit irons and putters and then played the course.

    It has brought me a nice experience when one of the Titleist team reached out before I had a full bag fitting at the fitting centre, and gave me a tour of Titleist HQ, the factory etc. That was very cool
  15. Hi Will,
    I’ve been a part of Team Titleist for a couple of years now, with my first TT day last year. It was so much more than a round of golf, or meeting new people or even the products.
    Team Titleist generosity, from goodies to staff is exceptional, “THE DAY” is my take away.
    Looking forward to this years events

    Hi guys,

    I’ve been part of Team Titleist for around two and a half years now. I found myself gravitating towards Titleist when I first got into golf, discovered TT about six months later, and the rest is history!

    There have already been plenty of highlights, but a standout for me has to be the TT Tour Truck night at Scottsdale Golf.

    It was my first official TT event, and I remember being a little nervous - even questioning whether I was “good enough” to be there. That feeling disappeared pretty quickly. From the moment I arrived, everyone was welcoming and easy to chat to. The other TT members made it feel relaxed and lighthearted, the Titleist team were approachable and talkative, and the tour staff were incredibly insightful without ever making it feel like you had to be a tour pro to talk equipment.

    That’s when it really clicked for me. Team Titleist isn’t just about what’s in the bag - it’s part of a brand that has created a community of like-minded people passionate about the game.

    And walking up those steps into the Tour Truck I’d only ever seen online - surreal. Such a cool experience.

    That night really levelled up my buy-in to Titleist - not just the equipment, but the people behind it and the people who play it.

    A few months later, I booked my first-ever fitting for a new set of T-Series irons - absolutely love them - along with the GT driver and woods, which gave me a great excuse to visit the fitting centre at St Ives too.

    I also squeezed in a few more events that year - the short game clinic at John O’Gaunt, the Team Shotgun Scramble at St Ives, and the 2-ball at Little Aston. Little Aston was another huge highlight - my first experience of a Top 100 course.

    Looking forward to many more.

    Not so much a venue experience but a 5 star TT memory. Some years ago I was lucky enough to be selected as a bag tester and after testing etc I was sent a tremendous goody bag as a Thank You. At the time I was raising money for 'alarms for the elderly' and cheekily asked Titleist if I could auction my gifts on the Titleist FB page, they said Yes and as a result I was able to donate £200. So Thank You to whoever it was won the auction (sorry, forgotten name) and also to TT for letting it happen. That is a memory that will never leave me !

    Will, I've been a member since 2009 and have had some great experiences and interactions with Titleist staff and other community members.

    I feel lucky that I've been able to attend a number of events over the years, from a US Open 70th anniversary at St Ives, TT days at East Sussex, Frilford Heath, Celtic Manor and the best putting green I've ever seen at Little Aston.

    I think the favourite memory and experience was attending the SM7 launch at Woburn. A freezing cold February morning on the range (which would in more recent years be transformed into the Performance studio). A fitter dedicated to helping us and finding the right specs before an hour on the Tavistock short game area. The sense of fun an the relaxed atmosphere that Tim, Hannah and the rest of the TT staff created that day was so welcome. It was lovely to be asked to record some video reactions for Bob V himself.

    What makes it so memorable is not what I got out of the day. It was that everyone involved made me feel special. I felt like I mattered to the brand and I wasn't being seen as a walking wallet to squeeze money from. They made it feel personal and I felt I was being treated as a friend, not a customer.

    A huge thank you to everyone involved over the years. Your task, and the challenges involved are huge. The time you and the rest of the team of TT staffers and product specialists take to put on the events and attend them is incredibly appreciated.

    Here's to many more years of TT and catching up on the fairways sometime soon.

    To be fair there’s something in every TT day I’ve done that makes me impatient for the next one!!
    Druids Glen, The European club for golf courses but as a golf day I can’t separate Saunton East and John O Gaunt.
    Both days had great golf course and facilities short game clinics great demonstrations fun putting comps that makes us acts like we are putting for the open!! Great friendships good food friendly competition and so gifts it’s a grown persons Xmas!!

    Hey Will & TT,

    My profile states 2013 for joining TT but I’ve being playing Titleist for around 30 years now. Once I started playing with Titleist clubs I never really changed, I’ve been really lucky and honoured to be part of the TT team, whether it’s representing or invited to TT events all over the country. I’ve struggled the last few seasons with either work or the dates that were chosen to attend.
    There’s been some great events but a couple of memories that stand out are at Woburn meeting Bob Vokey with a short game session then another occasion was being invited back to Woburn for the opening of the new Titleist Facilities, the experience was second to none and made to feel special as only two people allowed to attend at the same time, what a surprise I had when we went through the electric gates, I even got a little bag tag with my name on.
    Thanks for everything you do, keep on doing what you’s do.

    The number one team TT

    Thanks
    Gary

    HI Will,

    I think for me the T Series fitting at Woburn last year - that was truly a special day that i will remember for a long time, being able to have a fitting of that level through the bag, followed by a round of golf and then being presented with the custom built clubs was awesome.

    Looking forward to attending more this year and meeting like minded people.
