Ben Hogan-MacGregor Company.
The Hawk always had a somewhat rocky relationship with his equipment manufacturer, feeling it favored friend and competitor, Byron Nelson. But in June of 1953, the partnership ended for good when the company couldn't convince Hogan to use its top ball in competition. As the story goes, Hogan went to MacGregor's Cleveland headquarters to test out balls, including seeing their robotic golf machine, named "Iron Byron," in action. We'll keep it clean and just say the blunt nine-time major champion wasn't impressed. He stuck with the Titleist ball he had recently switched to and won the U.S. and British Opens to complete his "Hogan Slam." He then started his own equipment company that fall.
