Ever wonder what goes into the making of a Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x?
Here at Team Titleist, we're lucky to go to work every day with some of the best and brightest people in the game, the Titleist associates responsible for creating the #1 ball in golf.
And with Titleist Ball Plant III only a few minutes away in New Bedford, Mass., we recently had the opportunity to tour the facility and witness first-hand the making of the 2013 Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls.
It's a pretty cool experience, so we wanted to share it with all of Team Titleist.
Check out the video above for your own tour of Titleist Ball Plant III and see our team at work.
Remember, there's a difference between a golf ball and a Titleist golf ball - the #1 ball in golf.
FAST FACT: For more than 75 years, Titleist golf balls have been designed and manufactured by Titleist associates in Titleist's own world-class facilities, each person playing an important role in making the highest performing, most consistent golf balls in the game.
