Hellooo Titleist!!
On 6/7/2026 I went to Theodore Wirth Golf Club for my first time in Minneapolis, MN. Round didn’t start the greatest, had a couple OB shots on the front 9. Tough course with dog legs, water, and heavy woods. Get to the turn and grab hot dog and orange gatorade. Pretty backed up at hole 10, eventually tee off and got a Par.
We ride up to hole 11 tee box. Notice its basically a long straight fairway with a huge downslope to the green, maybe around 40, 50 feet? Group in front of us is just driving down the hill so the other 3 in our group tee off first since I hit the longest.
I tee up a Titleist 2, Pro V1x using a Cobra LTDx driver. It was the most perfect, smoothest swing I have ever felt. Piped it slightly to the left of dead center fairway with a slight fade. Of course we cant see the green so we drive up and im looking everywhere for my ball. Did it go deep into the thick stuff? Did it get a wild kick somewhere else? During about 5-10 minutes of searching, the other guys in the group are finishing up the hole. Kenny in our group putted in first and sure enough says “dude there’s a Titleist 2 in the hole!!!” And immediately I throw my hands up running to the hole freaking out. A great drive and a little but of luck from the golf gods lol.
We eventually finish the round, I asked the group in front of us if they saw the ball come but they said they were already hitting on the next tee box and didn’t see it.
Spoke to Zach the clubhouse manager, and he congratulated me saying they will get the exact distance to the hole from the blue tees on 11. My 18 birdies app showed 332 yds to the middle green and the hole placement was slightly bottom right of that. Zach also mentioned Titleist being an offical sponser of the course will be reaching out, the local paper, and possibly Cobra too.
After a round with the boys that witnessed it (Jesse, Blake, and Kenny) I went and bought a powerball ticket and told the clubhouse I will be back next Sunday!
I have attached some pictures, until the next one! Thanks Titleist!
