markb Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Must be some semantic loophole like that that we're missing. But who even knows the senior "major" winners or the five ladies majors? Anyway, I'm stumped. I've googled the crap out of it and I find nothing. The best candidate I can muster is the club fitting studio chain Cool Clubs, that was founded in 2007 and not likely profitable till now. They assemble clubs, but can't really be considered an OEM so its not them.

Undershooter Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Ok so IMO the company in question was established much sooner than 2007 but they had less than nothing around that time. I would concentrate on companies that are recently more successful but have been around for a while. Thats why I said wilson staff earlier.

I may call a technicality though on the number of Majors. Pretty sneaky not counting the Wilson majors I'm not sure if its them or not bc I said Wilson staff a page or so ago and he didn't say if it were right or not.

Undershooter Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 It didn't say the company had to exist before 2007. Just that they didn't have anything.

xxio Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 The started in 2007 is the tricky part. Started in, meaning started as a business Started in 2007 with less than nothing, a long time OEM that was in the red and now $120M a year. If it's the second, I'd go with Cally.

Undershooter Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Wilson originally started in 1914 I think. So its super old. With that said I agree with xxio on the callaway point.
