(Full List)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
80% of the golf club market is controlled by less than 10 of the major companies. There are always new companies that are joining the market and in this post, I\u2019m going to be talking about how many different golf club manufacturers are out there and include a full list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Currently, there are close to 50 different golf club manufacturers in the golf market. The majority of these companies sell multiple different clubs but there are a few who specialize in putters or wedges. The majority of these companies sell to the North American market but there are a number of them who serve the Asian or European markets.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019ll continue adding new golf companies as I come across them so feel free to let me know anything I\u2019ve left out. It\u2019s almost impossible to know all of them but I spent quite a bit of time looking for different businesses that sell golf clubs in North America and the UK. I\u2019ll include the list below in alphabetical order and link to their website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adams Golf<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n They were best known for their hybrids but they made pretty much every type of golf club out there. They were bought out in 2012 and they don\u2019t seem to be making any new clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aldila<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n This company makes shafts for drivers, woods, hybrids, and irons. They are pretty high-end but I don\u2019t have too much experience using them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ben Ross Golf<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Their slogan is excellence made affordable. They make all types of clubs, bags, and clothing. The prices are pretty good and so are the clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ben Hogan Golf<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This company makes all types of golf clubs and is supposed to deliver legendary performance at factory-direct prices. I believe they only sell online but the prices are still pretty high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ben Sayers Golf<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a UK company that\u2019s supposed to be one of the oldest golf companies around. The website doesn\u2019t seem to be the most up to date and I\u2019ve never tried them out so I don\u2019t know if they\u2019re still making golf clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bettinardi Golf<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n These guys make putters and wedges that are pretty pricey but perform really well. There are a number of players on tour using them as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bridgestone Golf<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve heard of this company before but they\u2019re most known for their golf balls.

They make pretty much everything out there. Clubs, bags, balls, and one of my favorite irons, the Apex Cf16<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cleveland Golf<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here is another well-known company that\u2019s probably most known for their wedges.
