Rory McIlroy finally claimed his green jacket this weekend. Now, it’s your turn to dominate the green with Made in America golfing equipment.

The Masters may be over, but golf season has only just begun! At the Alliance for American Manufacturing, we champion the backbone of American industry: our workers and the products they create. And guess what? When it comes to golf, American manufacturing is alive and well.

While many major brands outsource production, a handful of companies are keeping things proudly Made in the USA, crafting putters, golf balls, and course and club maintenance machinery, with the same dedication that goes into forging steel and building cars. We’ve already shared the great Made in America stories behind some of golf’s most legendary and innovative brands, so we’re shining a spotlight on some of the machinery.

Great golf clubs, balls, and courses don’t appear by chance, they rely on precision engineering and specialized machinery. Just like the top-tier golf equipment and world-class courses they help create, many of these machines are proudly made in the USA, ensuring the highest standards of quality and innovation in the game.

MR3 Golf Designs: The Precision Behind the Clubs

Located in Texas, MR3 Golf Designs is a leader in manufacturing high-quality golf gauges and tools used by club fitters, tour vans, and professionals. Their CNC-milled club-building tools ensure precision in loft, lie, and weight which are critical factors in creating clubs that deliver on Augusta’s grand stage.

Standard Golf: American-Made Course Essentials

From bunker rakes to flagsticks, Standard Golf, established in 1910, is the world’s leading manufacturer of golf course accessories. Their Iowa-based production ensures that many of the products used to maintain the pristine conditions of courses like Augusta National are proudly made in the USA.

We’ve shared them before, but these fantastic Made in America brands deserve all the love we can give them. Here are some of the Made in America greats when it comes to golf equipment:

Bettinardi Golf

When Scottie Scheffler or Jon Rahm lines up a birdie putt on Augusta’s lightning-fast greens, they need a putter that feels like an extension of their hands. That’s where Bettinardi Golf comes in.

Based in Tinley Park, Ill., Bettinardi is famous for its high-quality, milled putters, each crafted from a single block of metal, no shortcuts, no compromises. Every putter is precision-milled in their state-of-the-art American facility, ensuring the kind of accuracy that Augusta’s greens demand. Bettinardi putters aren’t just equipment; they’re pieces of American craftsmanship, combining aerospace-level precision with a golfer’s touch.

Titleist

If you’ve ever played golf, you’ve probably played with a Titleist Pro V1, the ball of choice for a majority of tour pros. But did you know these legendary golf balls are made right here in the United States?

Titleist produces its Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls at its manufacturing plants in Massachusetts, using some of the most advanced technology in the industry. Augusta’s fairways and greens demand precision, and American workers deliver it with every single Titleist ball that rolls off the production line. (Fun fact, you can take a virtual tour of their manufacturing plant, too!)

Callaway’s Chrome Series Golf Balls

Callaway Golf has invested over $50 million in its Chicopee, Mass. facility, making it one of the most advanced golf ball plants in the world. This state-of-the-art factory produces the Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft balls, ensuring precision, performance, and consistency for all golfers.

With cutting-edge technology and rigorous quality control, Callaway’s commitment to American manufacturing is evident. Whether on the PGA Tour or your local course, these Made-in-USA golf balls deliver the distance, spin, and feel golfers demand.

Bridgestone Golf

Bridgestone Golf has been producing high-quality golf balls since 1935, and their commitment to excellence continues at their Covington, Ga., facility. To meet increasing demand, the plant recently expanded production capacity by 30%, reinforcing Bridgestone’s dedication to precision and innovation in American-made golf balls.

The TOUR B X, TOUR B XS, TOUR B RX, and TOUR B RXS golf balls, trusted by elite players like Tiger Woods, Bryson DeChambeau, and Fred Couples, are engineered with proprietary REACTIV cover technology, a game-changing innovation that optimizes spin and control based on impact force. While the TOUR B model is manufactured in Japan, all other TOUR B models are produced domestically, ensuring that American manufacturing remains at the forefront of golf ball innovation.

Bridgestone continues to prove that American-made golf balls can compete at the highest levels of the sport.

Why American-Made Matters at The Masters

The Masters is more than just a golf tournament. It’s a celebration of tradition, excellence, and precision, values that also define American manufacturing! While big-name brands outsource production, companies like Bettinardi, Titleist, Bridgestone and Calloway prove that when it comes to making world-class golf gear, the U.S. is still on par (or better).

And behind the scenes, the machines and equipment from companies like MR3 Golf Designs and Standard Golf ensure that the gear and the courses themselves meet the highest standards of play.

Because when it comes to golf *and manufacturing*, America knows how to play to win.
