Hopkins Golf Going Retail

[GolfSpy Barbajo]

At long last, we may be able to try before we buy...

 

 

Only 14 locations so far, but it's a start......

 

Anyone game Hopkins?  Played with a guy last year who had them - first time I'd seen them in person.  Nice looking wedges and he seemed quite happy with them...

It's a nice start cause even just getting some demos in stores would help. I personally don't care if I have to order something but I do want to see it in person first.

It's not listed, but my local shop just sent out an email advertising that they were carrying them.

Will check them out in 10 days…

Has anyone tried those balls?

Them making balls surprised me. How can you possibly break into the ball market and make any money or even differentiate yourself? Seems tough to me, but I'm sure they have smarter business people than me figuring that out.

I had said it all along but on different lines. I was in favor of having authorized Hopkins fitting centers trained in their methods for their products. I do feel that this is a positive start in that direction though. I have never seen one of their wedges in person. I am one of those folks that I have to have it in my hands and look and feel it before I buy

I practice often at Robbie Biershenk's (Twitter @Shank) range in Greenville, SC and he has had Hopkins in his shop since the Spring.  I have never tried them, but have seen the ads, etc.  Their website is pretty cool, with a LOT of fitting help/options.
