I don't gather that anyone is upset at the club companies and their attempt to sell golf widgets. It's merely entertaining to observe the guys that are paying retail for a new driver every year or two
exactly.
however, i would kill for a job marketing these. i feel like there is a boilerplate (longer, straighter, more forgiving, more aerodynamic!) and they just change the name of the woods/irons every year. no matter what, there is a line of schmucks like us forming to the right every year.
Are there really people that upgrade drivers like iphones and get a new one no matter what? Can you get decent money back on the resale market (I was sticker shocked on a used fairway wood at golf galaxy).
Honestly, the club that blows my mind that is so expensive are the damn putters. I had my clubs stolen and have been rebuilding my collection for spring, got some m2 irons with an extra $100 off from dicks on black friday and just picked up a rogue driver. I'll probably go used on the fairway woods, and it looks like putter too. Was sticker shocked when i saw they're $200 plus now.
