Pleasure in<br />
Tough Times<br />
I’m a loyal <strong>Callaway</strong> <strong>Golf</strong> fan<br />
in Detroit. With the severe<br />
economic times we are suffering<br />
here, many people are losing<br />
their jobs and homes. While<br />
many people are selling their<br />
“pleasure items” to make ends<br />
meet, I refuse to get rid of my<br />
Big Bertha Irons and Woods!<br />
These clubs give me something<br />
much more important than<br />
just a better game. They give<br />
me an excuse to get away from<br />
all the bad news for a few<br />
hours. They give me pleasure<br />
in tough times.<br />

What A Difference<br />
I have played hockey for the<br />
past 25 years, but golf never<br />
seemed exciting enough to<br />
collect my interest. My new<br />
boss recently decided that he<br />
should take me to his course,<br />
so that I could give the game a<br />
try. One thing led to another,<br />
and I bought a set of 25-yearold<br />
clubs at a garage sale for<br />
$10. After struggling with these<br />
clubs and having very few<br />
lessons, I decided it was time<br />
to update. I was afforded the<br />
opportunity to play with a used<br />
set of <strong>Callaway</strong> <strong>Golf</strong> X-18 Irons,<br />
a Steelhead Driver and 3- and<br />
5-woods. I was blown away by<br />
the difference the <strong>Callaway</strong> <strong>Golf</strong><br />
clubs made when I was able to<br />
cut 10 strokes off my handicap!<br />
I have since purchased a new<br />
set of X-20 Irons (right) and an<br />
X460 Driver. I am now a true<br />
believer that <strong>Callaway</strong> <strong>Golf</strong>’s<br />
technology makes a huge<br />
dif ference and can immediately<br />
improve your game. Thanks<br />
for making a superior product!<br />

“I went to the pro shop and rented<br />
a set of X-20 Irons. I play to an<br />
eight and my first time out using<br />
<strong>Callaway</strong> <strong>Golf</strong> clubs, I shot a 73!”<br />
I Switched!<br />
I have never gone on vacation<br />
without my Pings, but recently<br />
I decided to leave my clubs at<br />
home and spend more time on<br />
the beach with my wife. It was<br />
just a matter of time, however,<br />
before I succumbed to the<br />
lure of the lawn. I went to the<br />
pro shop at Sandals <strong>Golf</strong> and<br />
Country Club in Jamaica and<br />
rented a set of X-20 Irons. I play<br />
to an eight, and my first time<br />
out using <strong>Callaway</strong> <strong>Golf</strong> clubs,<br />
I shot a 73!<br />
I immediately made an<br />
appointment to get fitted for<br />
a set back home. I am now<br />
the proud owner of a new set<br />
of <strong>Callaway</strong> <strong>Golf</strong> irons!<br />
