Bobby Jones Golf Company's Players Series by Jesse
Ortiz
The Bobby Jones Golf Company was formed by the
family of Bobby Jones (a group known as Jonesheirs)
and Walter Rosenthal, a skilled entrepreneur. Two important
golf club lines, fairway woods and hybrids
make up the Bobby Jones Golf Company.
In 2003 Jesse Ortiz, a well known golf club
designer, joined The Bobby Jones Golf Company. The Bobby
Jones Players Series by Jesse Ortiz was introduced
and has Ortiz as the chief designer. Ortiz had owned
his own company, the Ortiz Design Studio™,
where he produced a line of metal woods and hybrids
that reflect his innovation and artistry. What a perfect
match.
The Bobby Jones Players Series by Jesse Ortiz honors
the Jones tradition and are stamped with the Jesse Ortiz
signature. It's an "implement" (the expression
Bobby used for his clubs) and an approach that Robert
Tyre Jones would, no doubt, have endorsed.
"The easiest constant to fix is the club,"
Jones once stated. "The right club takes one
difficulty from those which are already too many."
Ortiz knows exactly what it takes to finesse a great
golf club. He has employed the latest advancements in
multi-material clubhead technology, featuring proprietary
Fujikura and Graphite Design shafts.
Bob Jones IV is confident about this union of great
golf names. The Bobby Jones Golf Company has worked
hard to ensure that Bobby Jones is associated with nothing
less than first-class products. Jesse Ortiz is the only
designer today they trust to create golf clubs that
are 'best in breed,' like his great-grandfather Bobby.
Bobby Jones by Jesse Ortiz Hybrids has been named
the winner of Golf magazine’s Hybrid ClubTest.
The publication, which releases ClubTest reviews for
each club category throughout the year, noted Bobby
Jones by Jesse Ortiz Hybrids as Winner, ‘Tester’s
Top Pick’ and ‘Best Value’ over seven
notable competitors in its September 2006 issue.
Ten golfers, ranging in handicap from two to 25, and
ranging in age from 26 to 57, tested eight hybrid clubs
in categories from ‘Look’ and ‘Forgiveness’
to ‘Playability’ and ‘Distance’.
Bobby Jones by Jesse Ortiz Hybrids claimed top marks
in ‘Look/Rough’, ‘Forgiveness/Rough’,
‘Feel/Chip’, ‘Playability/Chip’,
‘Feel/Fairway’ and ‘Overall Performance’.
Let's take a look at what Bobby Jones Golf offers
in the category of fairway woods and hybrids. If
you are looking for some great fairway, recovery, or
just fun clubs to hit, these might be what you have
been searching for.

-
The Hybrids by Jesse Ortiz - Using the same
technology as our fairway metals, Bobby Jones Hybrids
are designed to replace the hard-to-hit long irons.
The sole design improves playability from a variety
of lies and simplifies difficult to hit shots from
rough, to bunkers to tight lies to hardpan. Our
philosophy takes advantage of a fairway metal's
low and deep CG, its wide-bodied TOST, and its versatile
contoured sole. Bobby Jones Hybrids are also shorter
in length to increase accuracy and to truly be long
iron replacements, not fairway metal alternatives.
For this reason, our hybrids are labeled exponentially
to identify which iron it replaces. Thus, for example,
the 21 degree H3 (H to the power of 3) is the 3
iron replacement; and H5 (H to the power of 5) is
the 5 iron replacement.

The Fairway Woods by Jesse Ortiz - Tour-Proven
Technology, Playability and Forgiveness. Bobby Jones
Players is the next generation of technology from
an earlier Jesse Ortiz design that became the #1
fairway metal on Tour, from 1998 to 2001. Smaller
in profile, but slightly deeper in face dimension,
Players is designed with the look that Tour professionals
prefer, while incorporating the critical weight
distributions that enhance playability and forgiveness
for mid- to high-handicap golfers. The clean, symmetrical
shape of the heads, encourage easy alignment to
the target, providing shot maneuverability that
is uncommon in fairway metals. The sleek, tri-tiered
power sole reduces drag in all turf conditions.
The classically shaped, 440cc Players drivers feature
two strategically positioned weight screws, of 2
(grams gold) and 12 (grams silver), that expand
the Triangle of StabilityT, maximizing the accuracy-enhancing
phenomenon known as the "gear effect."
All Players clubs feature a deep, translucent "forest
green" color, proprietary JS-6 and JS-7 shafts
by Graphite Design, and classic, heavy-knit headcovers
