Posted: April 19, 2013                            FAIRHAVEN, Mass. &ndash; Titleist adds a new option in long game performance with the introduction of 712U, a forged utility iron that provides high speed, traditional blade iron players with improved playability and shot control.Engineered with a deep center of gravity (CG) position for a higher moment of inertia (MOI), Titleist 712U delivers increased stability and playability versus a traditional long iron while providing enhanced trajectory and spin control versus a hybrid.A result of extensive research and tour player testing conducted by the Titleist Golf Club R&amp;D team, 712U features a wider, camber sole design that promotes clean turf interaction and is effective for a variety of attack angles, making the club more versatile when trying to hit high or low shots. 712U also uses a tapered-tip iron shaft for additional trajectory control.712U utilizes a forged, hollow body 1025 steel construction with a high-speed 455 steel face insert to provide the performance, looks and feel that have made Titleist irons the No. 1 choice of players across the worldwide professional tours.Offered in 2-iron (18&ordm;), 3-iron (21&ordm;) and 4-iron (24&ordm;) lofts, 712U utility irons are available by custom order beginning May 15.First introduced on the PGA Tour late last year, 712U is already the most played utility iron model on the PGA Tour through the first 14 events of the 2013 season. 712U models can currently be found in the bags of tour pros like Adam Scott (2-iron), Tim Clark (4-iron) and Geoff Ogilvy (2-iron) &ndash; players who prefer a utility iron over a hybrid as an alternative to traditional long irons.&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t like the look of hybrids, but the 712U (2-iron) looks great at address,&rdquo; said Ogilvy. &ldquo;It is a bit stronger than a 2-iron, it goes farther than a 2-iron and it&rsquo;s easy to hit. It feels great, performs how I need it to, and I like having it in my bag.&rdquo;&ldquo;During the development of 712U, we worked closely with our tour players to design a utility iron that delivers a great combination of consistency and control,&rdquo; said Steve Pelisek, General Manager, Titleist Golf Clubs. &ldquo;The deeper CG results in a higher MOI that increases stability at impact, helping players achieve more consistent distance and trajectory control, whether hitting shots high or low.&ldquo;With the 712U being so well received out on tour, we decided to make the club available through custom order for those players that need or prefer this type of long game yardage and trajectory solution,&rdquo; Pelisek said.The 712U has a traditional profile with a rounded back design that is preferred in the address position over cavity back long irons with more offset. Players will gain added confidence at address from a club head that is slightly larger than the 2-iron, 3-iron and 4-iron Titleist MB and CB (712 Series) models.The club is chrome plated and features a satin finish.PRICE AND AVAILABILITY: The new Titleist 712U is available by custom order only beginning May 15 with a suggested base retail price of $235 (MAP: $209) with a steel shaft and $259 (MAP: $229) with a graphite shaft.

All of this information feeds the product development process and allows us to focus our design efforts and ultimately our prototype testing in ways that will enhance performance for these golfers.&rdquo;More than 40,000 golfers from around the world participated in the white-box testing and validation process, with golfers receiving prototype NXT Tour, NXT Tour S, Velocity or DT Solo golf balls for on-course evaluation.

Futura X is a high MOI, modern mallet design with advanced perimeter weighting that provides exceptional stability and forgiveness with solid feel.The new Futura X, available worldwide beginning Aug. 1, is the direct result of Cameron&rsquo;s extensive work with Titleist Brand Ambassador Adam Scott, who used a prototype version of the putter in winning the 2013 Masters Tournament. Scott, who has been using Cameron putters for more than a decade, calls Futura X &ldquo;the most stable putter I have ever played.&rdquo;Precision milled from high grade 6061 aluminum, the unique Futura X design combines a rear balance bar with deep heel-toe weights plus perimeter weighting under the face. The resulting deep CG provides stability throughout the stroke, while the perimeter weighting adds forgiveness and solid feel. The result is unmatched stability and a great roll.&ldquo;I like to describe Futura X as a lethargic putter, for those golfers that need a slow, steady stroke that doesn&rsquo;t jump around a lot,&rdquo; said Cameron, whose putters have been the No. 1 choice of players on the PGA Tour since 1997 and counting. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s the perfect design for Adam, and will give confidence to all golfers that want stability during the stroke and less hand manipulation.&rdquo;Futura X features four stainless heel-toe weights, two 20-gram weights on the rear balance bar and two adjustable sole weights (configured depending on the length) in the front corners of the putter under the face.The overall headweight of Futura X is 20 grams heavier than a standard Cameron Select putter, resulting in a swingweight of E8. However, since much of the weight is located behind the axis of the shaft and not directly under the golfer&rsquo;s hands, the Futura X feels stable but not heavy during the stroke.&ldquo;Futura X is what I call a &lsquo;force balanced&rsquo; design,&rdquo; Cameron said. &ldquo;While the putter has a near-face balanced shaft configuration that would normally produce a slight toe hang, there&rsquo;s so much weight off the back of the putter that it forces the face to hang flat. The rear balance bar allows us to add considerable weight a fairly long distance away from the shaft axis, which is really what drives the high MOI.&rdquo;Said Scott: &ldquo;The new Futura X is the most stable putter I have ever played. I worked with Scotty and his team at the Studio for many hours at the end of last year and we worked hard to get it right. Even when I began to play it on Tour at the beginning of 2013, we were still tweaking the original design right up until I won with it at the Masters. It was definitely a long process and I provided considerable feedback based on my performance with it under the gun.&ldquo;For me, the key to the performance of the putter is the perfect combination of perimeter weighting, high MOI and solid feel. I have more confidence in my stroke with this putter because of its design. Scotty determined the best positions for both the fixed and adjustable weights so the head would remain stable throughout the stroke. I have never had more confidence in a putter or my stroke than I do right now with the new Futura X.&rdquo;Futura X is offered in standard lengths of 33, 34 and 35 inches. A double-bend, stepless steel shaft with one shaft of offset provides a square, technical visual at address.The putter has a Frozen Titanium finish that helps reduce glare, two black sightlines and red cherry-dot weights in the sole and balance bar. The mid-milled face texture draws a crisp sound from the aluminum face and body.PRICE AND AVAILABILITY: Futura X has an MSRP of $375.

<a href="http://dwenger-lounge.de/blame/steel_1/index.html" rel="nofollow">golf set for sale</a> 2012-01-22In only the third event of the PGA Tour season, Mark Wilson gave the i20 driver and irons their first wins. His two-shot victory at the Humana Challenge in La Quinta, Calif., was his fifth Tour title. He finished at 24 under (66-62-67-69).Wilson had two early wins to begin last season, so it wasn鈥檛 surprising to see the PING Pro leading after three rounds.  But his final round started slowly. He was 1-over through 10 holes, waiting for the kind of birdie run that propelled him to a 62 on the same Palmer Course two days earlier (there are three courses in the tournament rotation). When he birdied the 11th, then made another from the greenside bunker on the 12th, he had his momentum. With birdies on 16 and the home hole, he played the final eight holes in four under. Wilson earned $1,008,000 and is second on the FedExCup points list. He credits his fast start the past two seasons to the breaks he has taken during November and December. 鈥淚 can clear my mind of golf. I tend to remember the good things I did before and when I came out the last two years I just had a clear mind. It feels good to win.鈥?Wilson鈥檚 PING equipment includes an i20 driver (8.5潞), i15 hybrids (17潞 and 20潞), i20 irons 4-PW, Tour wedges (52潞 and 60潞), and a Karsten Anser putter.PING Pro Jeff Maggert made a final-round charge with an 8-under 64 to finish fifth at 21 under.

Since 2004, Vokey Design wedges have been the #1 wedge on the PGA Tour and the most played wedge at every level of competitive golf.Precisely designed and manufactured using proprietary Spin Milled technology, Vokey SM5 wedges provide a distinct performance advantage through new, deeper TX3 grooves, tour-driven shapes and the industry&rsquo;s most extensive range of bounce and grind options.New TX3 grooves, with seven percent larger groove volume and two performance configurations, deliver maximum spin by channeling away grass and sand for improved contact between the ball and groove edge. Spin Milled technology also provides trajectory and distance control through precisely milled grooves and machined face texture. Every SM5 wedge is milled to the tightest tolerance in the industry, with each groove individually cut to the maximum dimensions allowed by the Rules of Golf and 100-percent inspected. A localized, high frequency face treatment provides increased groove durability for longer spin retention over the life of the wedge.For years, Vokey and his team of craftsmen, including Vokey Tour representative Aaron Dill, have utilized tour player input and feedback to produce the largest and most effective range of bounce and sole grind options in the game. Vokey SM5 wedges are available in 21 different loft/bounce/grind combinations and six tour-inspired sole grinds, appropriately slotted into low, mid and high bounce categories to fit all swing types, shot-making styles and short game conditions.&ldquo;I&rsquo;ve always said I have the best R&amp;D facility in the world &ndash; the PGA Tour,&rdquo; Vokey said. &ldquo;I worked closely with our team of craftsmen and engineers to apply everything I&rsquo;ve learned from the best players in the world to Spin Milled 5. We&rsquo;ve increased the spin. We&rsquo;ve given players more control. And we&rsquo;ve got a bounce and grind matrix that will provide the versatility and confidence to hit a variety shots around the green and get up and down more.&rdquo;Available in golf shops beginning March 14, SM5 wedges feature a more compact and balanced profile with three new finish options &shy;&ndash; Tour Chrome, Gold Nickel and Raw Black. Each wedge has new, clean graphics, with the grind designation (i.e., &ldquo;S Grind&rdquo;) called out on the club, and increased space for five-character personalized stamping. Vokey&rsquo;s popular personalization and custom options have also been expanded.MORE SPIN THROUGH NEW TX3 GROOVES: New Spin Milled TX3 grooves, the third generation of Vokey&rsquo;s tour extreme scoreline, produce maximum spin for improved trajectory and distance control. TX3 scorelines &ndash; with two different performance configurations &ndash; feature 17 precise, individually cut and 100-percent inspected grooves that continue to push the conforming limits of effective edge radius for increased backspin.TX3 grooves in the 46&ordm; to 54&ordm; lofts are deeper and narrower than the previous generation Vokey SM4 grooves. With seven percent larger volume, each groove better channels away grass, sand and debris for cleaner ball to edge radius contact and increased spin. The narrower geometry delivers precision distance and trajectory control, significantly reducing the chance of &ldquo;flyers&rdquo; from the rough.&ldquo;We received a lot of feedback from tour players regarding &lsquo;flyers.&rsquo; They don&rsquo;t want them,&rdquo; said Dill, who works on the Titleist Tour Van, building and grinding wedges for PGA Tour players. &ldquo;On tour these guys have to aim to a lot of small targets. They need to trust that their golf ball will travel the exact distance they need it to, even from a tough lie in the rough. The deep and narrow TX3 groove helps push the grass down better, which gives you that increased edge radius contact for more spin and consistent distance.&rdquo;TX3 grooves in the 56&ordm; to 62&ordm; lofts take advantage of the highly precise Spin Milled process. They maintain the same width as the prior generation but are deeper, with seven percent larger volume, for more spin and control around the greens.  Most players will experience up to 500 rpm of additional spin on full shots from the rough with the lower-lofted SM5 wedges, and up to 400 rpm in the higher lofts, compared to previous generation SM4 wedges. Both configurations provide the same spin performance from the fairway and shorter grass.&ldquo;These two groove geometries delivered the best performance,&rdquo; Vokey said. &ldquo;The groove configuration changes with the 56&ordm; model because this is where testing showed that the player makes a more oblique impact versus a more direct impact in the lower lofts. The wider TX3 groove on the higher lofts will sheer away the grass, rather than pushing it into the groove, and perform better on partial shots.&rdquo;SPIN MILLED PROCESS: Every Spin Milled 5 wedge is made of 8620 carbon steel and manufactured with industry-leading, proprietary Spin Milled technology. The process begins with a double fly cut face that provides the perfect preparation for texture and grooves. The face surface is precisely machined with a series of milled micro edges to the maximum conforming surface roughness, creating higher face friction for more consistent spin on partial shots. TX3 grooves are CNC milled for precision to the maximum dimensions allowed by the Rules of Golf, resulting in maximum spin for trajectory and distance control. Each groove is individually cut at a slower speed for improved tolerances on both groove size and edge radius. Every SM5 wedge also undergoes a unique localized face heat treatment that significantly increases the durability of the wedge&rsquo;s groove edge radius, substantially impeding the loss of spin due to wear with no difference in feel.100% GROOVE INSPECTION: Prior to the launch of the Vokey SM4 wedges, Titleist made a significant investment in technology that establishes 100-percent inspection of every groove on every Vokey wedge that is produced. This allows Titleist to manufacture wedges to tighter tolerances than the rest of the industry. Each new TX3 groove is evaluated using computer-guided plotting technology in which a digital stylus is piloted to trace the contours of each groove. Three-dimensional coordinates are recorded and plotted as the stylus moves, compiling data that can be translated into measurements of the groove&rsquo;s total volume and edge radius. This enables the manufacturing team to machine the grooves right up against the edge of the maximum allowable 0.011-inch radius specification, providing players the highest possible spin and trajectory control without fear of non-compliance.MORE TYPES OF SHOTS: With more bounce and sole grind options, as part of an industry-leading model matrix, Vokey SM5 wedges provide the versatility for improved shotmaking, giving players the confidence to execute more shots around the green.Spin Milled 5 wedges are available in lofts of 46&ordm; to 62&ordm; (in two degree increments) and six tour-inspired sole grinds (L, T, S, M, F and K), with each model properly sorted into low, mid and high bounce categories. The result is the game&rsquo;s most extensive and effective selection of bounce and grind options, made up of 21 different loft/bounce/grind combinations to satisfy all swing types, shot-making styles and turf conditions.&ldquo;With wedges, it&rsquo;s never one size fits all,&rdquo; Vokey said. &ldquo;Wedges are required to hit many different types of shots. And every player has a different technique, a different style. That&rsquo;s why we have so many options. It&rsquo;s important that players see an authorized Titleist fitter to get fit for their SM5 wedges, so they know they&rsquo;re playing a setup that fits their game.&rdquo;Two of Vokey&rsquo;s most popular grinds &ndash;S and M &ndash; are now available in 54&ordm;, 56&ordm;, 58&ordm; and 60&ordm; lofts. There are also four bounce and grind choices in the 58&ordm; and 60&ordm; lofts, including the addition of the new K Grind, which played a part in two major championship victories last season. The 46&ordm; to 52&ordm; F Grind models feature wider soles for increased playability, while the 54&ordm; to 60&ordm; M Grind models have enhanced heel to toe radius for improved turf interaction.SM5 offers two mid-bounce sand wedge options in both the 54&ordm; and 56&ordm; lofts, based on feedback from Titleist fitters and tour players that more bounce is preferred out of the bunker. The S and M Grinds, with 10&ordm; of bounce, also provide more versatility from the sand.TOUR-PROVEN SOLE GRINDS: Each SM5 sole grind is derived from Vokey&rsquo;s work with players on the PGA Tour. The S Grind, for example, was inspired by Steve Stricker, who likes to play his wedges in a square position with the shaft leaning away from the target. Available on four mid-bounce SM5 models (54&ordm; to 60&ordm;), the S Grind features a full sole with moderate heel relief and a medium ribbon ground along the trailing edge.&ldquo;Steve has a shallow angle of attack, with little to no wrist action. The S Grind gives him the versatility to hit many different shots around the green, even with his neutral style,&rdquo; Vokey said. &ldquo;For players that like to rotate the face open, the M Grind is a very popular option.&rdquo;The K Grind, the newest addition to the Vokey Spin Milled family, was born out of Vokey&rsquo;s recent work with several tour players, including Adam Scott and Jason Dufner. The K Grind features a wide sole with increased bounce and enhanced camber that is playable in a variety of conditions. Last season, both Scott and Dufner played K Grind wedges in their victories at the Masters Tournament and PGA Championship, respectively.&ldquo;Both Adam and Jason were looking for a sand wedge that was very forgiving out of the bunker, but still allowed them to hit a lot of different shots around the green,&rdquo; Vokey said. &ldquo;When Adam put it into play last year at Augusta National, with all of its tight lies, I knew we&rsquo;d found it.&rdquo;(Please see below chart for full bounce and grind matrix and grind descriptions.)COMPACT PROFILE: Based on tour player feedback, Spin Milled 5 wedges feature a more compact, balanced profile than their SM4 predecessors. SM5 wedges have a rounder toe profile than SM4, as well as a shorter blade length and taller toe and (par) heel heights.TOUR VALIDATION: Jordan Spieth is one of more than 30 players who have already switched to the new Vokey SM5 wedges. Spieth made his 2014 PGA Tour debut with two SM5 wedges in the bag, finishing runner-up at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions.&ldquo;I&rsquo;m looking for a lot of versatility. I&rsquo;m looking to be able to hit it high, hit it low, shots that are going to spin back but also shots where they can drop and just stop where they land,&rdquo; said Spieth. &ldquo;My favorite shots are those low spinners, those two hop-and-stop pitch shots from 30-40 yards &ndash; they&rsquo;re awesome with the new SM5 wedges.&rdquo;Other players with SM5 wedges in the bag include: Steve Stricker, Bill Haas, Scott Piercy, Brendon de Jonge, Scott Stallings, Marc Leishman, John Merrick, Geoff Ogilvy, Morgan Hoffmann, Bud Cauley, Greg Chalmers and Charley Hoffman.NEW FINISHES, CLEAN LOOKS: Spin Milled 5 wedges are available in three new finish options: Tour Chrome, Gold Nickel and Raw Black. The new, brighter Tour Chrome has a dark blast face for better contrast and framing, a soft nickel layer base for feel and rust prevention, and a thin top chrome layer for durability. Gold Nickel utilizes a double nickel layer process to help create better feel, rust prevention and durability. Raw Black, previously a tour-only finish, utilizes a QPQ process to create a thin protection layer for feel and durability. Raw Black will rust during the course of play.SM5 wedges have a cleaner look, with updated graphics and the grind designation (i.e. &ldquo;S Grind&rdquo;) stamped on each club. There is also a larger area for personalization, allowing up to five characters.ADVANCED PERSONALIZATION AND CUSTOM OPTIONS: SM5 wedges can be custom ordered with a wide range of specifications and personalization, including an industry-leading selection of shafts, grips, shaft bands, ferrules, stamping and paint fill.

Last fall she earned the clinching point for the European Solheim Cup team and was 2-1-1 in the event. At the Sybase Match Play Championship at Hamilton Farm Golf Club in Gladstone, N.J., she defeated six opponents en route to the win, the final match by a 2-and-1 score. Mu帽oz utilized a G20 driver, along with i20 woods, an i20 hybrid, and i20 irons. Advancing to the final was dramatic in itself. Two down after 11 holes in the morning semifinal, Mu帽oz went on to win four of the final six holes, including the last three.  Mu帽oz had to be convinced by her family to enter the tournament because her grandmother had taken ill and passed away before the event. 鈥淚鈥檓 so happy, I almost didn鈥檛 come, but my parents and my sister and brother said she wanted me to be here, so I came to play for my grandma, so this is for her. I wasn鈥檛 going to give up this week, that鈥檚 for sure.鈥?The win was a culmination of outstanding play in recent weeks for the 24-year-old, who took home $375,000. She was T4 and T2 in her two previous tournaments. 2012-06-24Trailing by one shot to start the final round, Mark Calcavecchia birdied 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 to surge ahead. Adding a birdie and a pitch-in for eagle on the back nine, he matched the competitive course record with an 8-under 64 to win by four at the Montreal Championship at the 6,950-yard Vallee du Richelieu Vercheres, in Quebec, Canada. The 52-year-old was bogey-free over the weekend, recording 11 birdies and the eagle for his second Champions Tour title at 16 under (69-67-64). For the tournament he was T2 in putts per round with 25, and he hit a number of wedges close to the hole. 鈥淚t was a phenomenal week around the greens for me. My short game was as good as it鈥檚 ever been. I spent a lot of time chipping this week and it paid off.鈥?He said closing out the win felt special. 鈥淓very time you get the job done, it means a lot and it can only help me the rest of the year.鈥? Calcavecchia earned $270,000, pushing him over $700,000 on the season. He relied on PING technology that included a G20 driver (8.5潞), i20 irons 3-6; S56 irons 7-PW, Eye2 XG LW, Eye2 Dot SW, and an Anser 3 Milled putter
