Acushnet’s Titleist brand saw overall sales decline for the second quarter.

Sales of Titleist golf balls declined by $10.9 million, a 6.6 percent decrease year over year. The company noted a decline in ProV1 franchise and performance models, a reduced store count, retail disruption and unfavorable weather conditions.

Club sales declined $25 million, a 21.1 percent decline year over year. Titleist experienced a decline in sales, particularly in the company’s iron series. Sales of golf clubs were also said to be affected by retail disruption and weather conditions.

Titleist golf gear, however, increased year over year by $2.5 million, an increase of 5.6 percent. The gear sales increase was primarily attributed to higher average selling prices across all categories of the gear business.
