Yet all these posts and no one is saying they should be forced by law to print the balls.

Chalk up another fail.

Dont believe I've ever said businesses should be forced to serve gay people. We have plenty of cash and can go elsewhere, we aren't black people facing systemic housing discrimination in 50's. You guys love a gofundme for bigots, just keep on with that approach.

Nice derail.


People aren't bigots because they don't agree with your immoral lifestyle.

Taylor and Kirkland are better balls anyway, will have to try them to see if they'll do it.

Titleist is completely within its rights to be discriminate in choosing not to provide this service to select customers.

This is no different from a bakery choosing not to bake a cake for a "particular wedding".


Nobody has stated otherwise. We can also choose to never again put a Titleist on a tee.

President Trump played golf with Gary Player today, according to his interview with Michael Berry. Hope he got a sleeve of LGB balls before the ban ...

Sounds like your sarcasm detector might've been what failed here.

And, now, everyone with a Pro V they use, and already has a "Let's Go Brandon" message printed on their ball by Titlelist , will save them to use as their "putting ball" only. And now these balls, are no longer made, which will assure they will be in use a looooonnng time, and a topic of conversation much longer than they would have been if just left alone. The ball is now a coveted item. People will trade for them. "Hey, you got a "let's Go Brandon Pro V. Got any more?....."

Virtue signaling backfires, and they have done this with their biggest customers. Titleist's think tank, can't think very well. But they feeelz good.
"Green" is the new RED.

That is beside the point… you've never been compelled to purchase/play a Titleist.

It would seem that some would compel Titleist to print whatever the customer wants, which is consistent with compelling "a bakery to bake a cake for anyone who walks through their door". Is that where you stand on the matter?

My stand is that companies be allowed to discriminate in whatever manner they wish, including race, sexual orientation, religion, etc. But since that's not the case and never will be, I'm for outlawing discrimination based on political ideology also.

That's not forcing Titleist to do anything, it's preventing them from doing something.

There are no businesses that "refuse to serve gay people" There are businesses that served gay people, and the gay people (some of which were regular customers) specifically targeted these businesses and demanded a customized product/service that was in violation of the owner's sincerely held religious beliefs. Hell the guys in Colorado drove past dozens of bakeries, including Muslim owned establishments, to deliberately set up the Christian baker. Love wins, right?

You can order from third party sites. I may try that.

Sounds like it is time to place my own order just to force them to cancel it.

Edit: Oops! Look's like they are wise to that.

I've been a Titleist user for over 40 years. It has been my preferred ball. No more.

This will have some lasting repercussions for them.

This reminds me of being a years long American Airlines flyer until they screwed me for no reason one afternoon about 15 years ago. I haven't flown them since.
