FARMINGDALE, N.Y. — Pete Bezuk wanted to build golf clubs. His first employer, Titleist, sent him to truck-driving school.

For a month, he learned how to coax a big rig along seaside cliffs and leafy back roads on the routes to many of America’s most idyllic golf destinations. Typically, he pulls up to the driving range. Then a 42-foot trailer becomes a mobile equipment factory, and for three manic days, he and nine other Titleist technicians cut, bend, hammer, and grind clubs to any taut specification a player might desire.

This became Bezuk’s strange life on the PGA Tour.

“It takes a certain type of person to be able to drive a truck and fix a club,” Bezuk said. “But we get to go to some really nice places.”

As the golf season winds down with the four-tournament FedEx Cup, beginning with the Barclays tournament, which ends Sunday, here at Bethpage Black, another long year will culminate for the players. It also means the end of a commensurately taxing grind for the support crews that trail the pros at every turn.
