About Wilson Staff
In 1914, three events heralded the beginning of an exciting new era in golf. First, the flamboyant Walter Hagen won the U.S Open Championship. His amazing golfing skill and colorful personality captured headlines, increasing the nation's interest and participation in the game. Second, Henry Ford introduced the mass production assembly line, thereby doubling his workers' wages. He set a precedent that helped establish a new era in which the average man had both the time and money to play what had previously been a rich man's game. Third, Wilson Sporting Goods Company entered the sporting goods business. In the years to come, Wilson's bold new club ideas helped make the game more enjoyable for more golfers than ever before in the history of the game.
In 1954, Wilson helped introduce the modern era of power golf with its introduction of the Wilson Staff ball, the famous "long ball" that springs off the club face 40 percent faster than the speed of the clubhead. Since its introduction, the Wilson Staff ball has helped win more Masters and U.S. Open championships than any other ball. Over the years, such golfing greats as Gene Sarazen, Sam Snead, Walter Hagen, Arnold Palmer, Nick Faldo, Payne Stewart, John Daly, and Vijay Singh have served on the Wilson Advisory Staff.
