Thank you for the explanation and the time to respond to this qeury. I also wondered why Canada was often excluded from contests from other manufacturers (as well).

Saugus ma. I favorite spot is myrtle beach a.c. just love golf

Old Yankee Stadium

Looking forward to seeing you at the Haggin Oaks Golf Expo in Sacramento .

I find it hard to believe the amount of equipment that must go out of the states or other countries TT stuff could be added to this at minimum cost if it the cost is the problem I’m sure if charge at cost I’m sure you won’t be out of pocket

So is this hardly why anybody in UK gets any TT stuff such as bag tags and all the other stuff people get in USA get, I live just down the road from the Titleist plant in ST Ives in Cambridgeshire England I've always played Titleist clubs and have just bought a new set to start playing again as I've just gone through 2 massive surgery procedures in the last 12 months and get out of plaster next week after a couple of knock backs but I see on several auction sites people selling TT stuff from USA for extortionate prices when we in UK we don't get sent anything when lots of players have been loyal to your company for many years and players tend to get TT items many times over allowing them to sell it on web sites like e-bay for a lot of money for something they seem to get sent many times over. Cheers Chris rant over.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the post and feedback. And thank you for being a part of Team Titleist! We certainly appreciate your frustration but unfortunately some regulatory obstacles are in our way and prevent us from making giveaways like this universally available.

However, our team in the UK does run quite a few sweeps/contests that are available in the UK. Make sure you sign up for those emails and check out the UK forum (www.titleist.com/.../united-kingdom-ireland) to stay up-to-date.

Thanks again!

To add to Mike's comment about the UK getting local stuff, I would have to agree from what I have seen, they get stuff not offered in the US too. Start with a US population of around 327 million and a UK population around 67 million and the per-capita for giveaways to active TT members is probably closer than realized. I would also add that much of the stuff being offered up on ebay are items that have been received at paid golf events and not so much contests or giveaways. Maybe some day the Titleist Plant in St. Ives can set up a small TT store like the one at the Ball Plant #3 in New Bedford MA. That might give locals an opportunity at some of these items. Also, many of the items Titleist sells can be customized for a small fee. I had Team Titleist embroidered on a golf bag. Probably can do that on luggage or other items you can order from your local distributor. Lastly, don't let these occasional giveaways be a distraction from all the good we get in sharing information across this wonderful medium. This forum and all the people from around the world that use it provide a great service, a wealth of knowledge, and a common friendship through our shared love of superior products from a great company. Cheers!
