Titleist

Titleist is a brand name owned by the Acushnet Company, headquartered in Fairhaven, Massachusetts, which produces golf equipment.

Acushnet is best known for its "Titleist" golf balls, but also produces clubs and other equipment and accessories as part of that line.

Titleist has used several mottos, including "The #1 ball in golf", and "Serious clubs for serious golfers".

Golf Balls

Titleist currently market the following golf balls:
Pro V1 and Pro V1x
DT Carry and DT Roll (also branded as PTS Carry and PTS Roll)
NXT Tour and NXT Extreme

They also make the "Pinnacle" brand of distance balls:
Platinum Feel and Platinum Distance
Gold FX Soft and Gold FX Long
Ribbon

The Pro V1 made its debut on the PGA Tour at Las Vegas on October 11, 2000, the first week it was available to the pros. A longtime Titleist user, Billy Andrade, won that first tournament with the new ball. The Pro V1 was available to the public for purchase that December. The Pro V1 was a dramatic departure for Titleist, which had traditionally used a wound-ball construction (with a liquid-filled core center) for its top-of-the-line golf balls.
