Hey all: to all the Poulter critics: He may look like more flash than substance at times outside of the ryder cup,but I think he’s a good guy overall from what I’ve seen and golf does need some personalities out there. As far as his new Titleist/Footjoy deal is concerned I’m not surprised he signed with them considering Cobra golf was owned by the same parent company as well as he say’s the new Titleist balls are great. Ad to that he can still wear his own clothing line.

Now your with the big boys. Don’t act like an A-Hole like you’ve done in the past. Win a Major and you might get the respect you dearly want. DON’t BE A TOOL IP.

Forsbrand
Oct 22, 2014 at 4:40 pm
Hmmmmmm that’s a little harsh. After not having a glowing Amateur playing record like so many of the worlds elite golfers Poulter has done exceedingly well for himself both in victories, prize winnings and respect for a four handicap shop assistant! Not sure why you have to win a major to be classed as a great, mark calcavecchia, Ben Curtis, Todd Hamilton…………….
Ryan Lyons
Oct 22, 2014 at 5:46 pm
Ben Curtis has a major
Forsbrand
Oct 23, 2014 at 2:28 am
Yes Ben Curtis Todd Hamilton and calc all have majors my friend but would you classify them as greats?
KK
Oct 23, 2014 at 2:52 am
So does Todd Hamilton, Shaun Micheel, Paul Lawrie, Michael Campbell, and countless other one and dones. I think his point is that just because you have a major doesn’t make you a great player.
Forsbrand
Oct 23, 2014 at 9:04 am
Affirmative realistacly there have been. A few one off winners that have just got across the line, no disrespect to them winning, but to be a true great you have to be a multiple major winner, winning The Open and one of the other majors in the US, shows you have all the shots and can compete with the very best.
????
Oct 26, 2014 at 5:02 pm
Playing with Titleist clubs makes you one of the “big boys”? I would say he´s been with the big boys for quite some time…16 professional wins, Ryder Cup legend, close to winning the Open a few times and so on. And I wonder how you can call the man a tool…do you know the guy?

Does this mean he will finally win on the PGA tour?

Granted, one was match play and the other was HSBC in Asia, but he has two PGA Tour wins to his credit.. both WGC events over huge contenders.

I wonder what that means for his putter. I may behind in Poulter news but last I remember hearing was that he was using the Odyssey Damascus putter.
adolfo
Oct 21, 2014 at 2:47 pm
I think Titleist will let him use Odyssey just like Stricker

Yeah, he probably will be most pleased to wear Footjoys again. He had la garage full of the Classics in all different colors vack in 2008/09. There was an older interview with him probably a year befor he went to Puma/Cobra. This add was classic too – thats the way my wife looks at me when I but another pair of FJs. http://youtu.be/5htXkaqv8Sw

He can certainly dig out all the Icon models. Not much changed in the last 5 years. Here is the interview – fast forward to min 2 – http://youtu.be/RbkikeJI4Ek

Does Titleist (acushnet) still own Cobra golf? I know they used to.
Zak Kozuchowski
Oct 21, 2014 at 2:05 pm
No. Puma owns Cobra. Titleist and Footjoy are owned by Fila.
MHendon
Oct 22, 2014 at 1:11 am
“Titleist and footjoy are owned by Fila” so is Acushnet still in business?
K
Oct 22, 2014 at 3:09 am
Well, it’s Fila Korea, actually, no real Fila exists any more, it was acquired and became Fila Korea. So Acushnet and Titleist are all Korean-owned now.
