Golfspy_CG2 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 On 9/19/2021 at 12:12 PM, GolfSpy Barbajo said: Interesting take Sal - they've been in a steady holding pattern for a while now. The golf division isn't losing money and it is growing. Problem is Wilson's share is so small that they could grow 10% annually and it wouldn't change their position very much. As one part of the Wilson Sporting Good umbrella, I don't see Wilson Golf going away - again, it's a plus to the bottom line (albeit a small one) - but it won't return to its former glory. The competition is too good and the Big 5 spend a buttload of money reminding all of us that they're the Big 5. The status quo doesn't want to change, and the Big 5 marketing and product machines are too good. If you think about it, each of the Big 5 made their way into being the Big 5 with some kind of must-have product. Callaway burst onto the scene with the Big Bertha. For TaylorMade it was the Pittsburgh Persimmon, the Bubble shafts and their first oversized drivers. PING it was putters and then investment cast irons - particularly the PING Eye 2. Cobra has the King oversized irons and Titleist has always had the ball. Add to that their marketing machines - they've trained us to believe that if you want a long driver, you look to Callaway or TaylorMade. If you want forgiveness and playability, you go to PING; if you want innovation and creativity you look at Cobra and if you're a better player or if you want the best ball you go to Titleist. Mizuno and PXG - and to a lesser extent Srixon - have carved out nice niches for themselves, but they aren't on equal footing. Wilson is one of the challenger brands, and it really doesn't have a niche other than really good forged irons. But Srixon, Mizuno and PXG also have really good forged irons. Not sure if you've seen the big kerfuffle on Twitter over Wilson. Apparently someone in charge of Wilson's website listed their Staff Model CB irons at $142 for the set. $142, of course, is the per iron price. Apparently there was a sizable amount of people who jumped on it -- the number I've heard is about 8,000, although I have my doubts. There's no way any reasonable person would expect Wilson to honor that - they explained it was a mistake and promised to refund everyone who thought they were going to get a full set. Sloppy, sloppy mistake, but a mistake nonetheless. Some of the Twitter responses insisted that Wilson should honor the mistake and get more of their clubs in people's bags, and that it would be a big PR win and they would gain market share. That shows a remarkable lack of business understanding - market share is useless if you lose money. I had this conversation with Wilson president Tim Clarke once - market share at the expense of margin is a fool's errand and is a sure fire way to lose a lot of money really quickly. You can't cut the price and make it up in volume - the math just doesn't work -- especially when people expect you to sell them a $1000 set of irons for $142. That's just foolish. One thing you can't ding Wilson on is its products. The Staff model blades are outstanding, and the Staff Model CB irons are better than that. The D9 irons are pretty good, but so were the D7 irons -- not sure there's a ton of upgrade between the two, but both are solid GI irons. The D7 Forged irons are also excellent, and past winners of MGS Player's Distance Most Wanted. Where they stumbled is with the D9 metal woods. The D7 lineup was sneaky good, especially the driver - excellent value and an excellent no-frills driver. Not as big of a fan of the D9 lineup. Not bad, mind you, but give me a choice and I'd take the D7 every time. And every time I pick up an Infinite putter, it's hard to believe they're only $99. The Buckingham may very well be the best value in golf. Very much looking forward to the D9 forged, which should come out this winter. Wilson's making use of AI in its R&D process and as we saw with Cleveland/Srixon, it takes a few iterations to really understand how it works and how to make the best use of it. (And not for nothing, do NOT sleep on the Launcher XL irons and metal woods - they are VERY good). Anyway, enough rambling. Could Wilson pull the plug on its golf operations? It's always possible, but as long as they stay in the black I can't see it. Amer Sports new ownership group wants to grow, particularly in Asia, and golf could be an area where that could happen. Tim Clarke says there's no reason why Wilson Golf couldn't be a $200-$250 million worldwide enterprise (Right now, they're probably around $125-130 million) I think Clarke has an operation that's right-sized (meaning it's not bloated or top-heavy), and he's been in charge since 2007, so there's tremendous continuity. Do they market well? Not particularly, but as savvy golf consumers we look beyond the marketing, don't we???? There it is boys and girls. More knowledge drop from a man that has forgotten more about the golf biz, than most of us combined ever knew. Good Stuff John. You should have Adam count that as one of Blog piece quotas.

ejgaudette Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 I feel like I am working into a club ho play here. I am thinking about a sent of Mizuno MP18 MMC heads on WRX. I got approval to do graphite shafts on my clubs and am thinking of ordering Recoil 110s. Even with going 2nd swing or the like trade in credit, it would less to get the new heads, and off load my current i500s and Cobra driver. Any thoughts on these irons. Just confirm what everyone is thinking, no I have not tested nor do I neseccarly need anything new, but again if anyone can understand this group can.

Interesting situation - not sure why TGW doesn't offer options with Wilson. I do know you can go directly to Wilson's website and custom order any iron with your preferred shaft with length and lie alterations available. There's a possibility this may be more of a TGW thing than a Wilson thing - I'm not sure WHY it would be a TGW thing instead of a Wilson thing, but it's not that Wilson doesn't offer custom options because they do.

dlow206 Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I have churned through many hybrids and could never find one I could hit reliably. Can't hit one of the deck, can't hit one of the tee, can't hit it on the course, can't hit it at the driving range. I had been intimidated by fairway woods, but put into play a TSI2 5 wood that I picked up. From the first shot at the driving range, it was solid. Solid, flush contact. Not every shot was perfect, but it was much better than the hybrid. The hybrid usually either topped or a massively left pull hook or a super thin shot. Also, the hybrids, even if I hit a shot decent, it only goes about 50 feet off the ground. The 5 wood flew much higher. Now i have a fairway wood addiction...

I have the SkyTrak, but definitely intrigued by this. The GC3 / Launch Pro is going to be nice. I heard $7k outside the US for the GC3 including software. US pricing is going to be different, equipment plus some sort of subscription fee. juspoole 1 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 07/15/2022 Driver: Rogue St Max LS - Autoflex Fairway Woods: Rogue Max St 3HL and 7 Wood Irons: JPX 921 Hot Metal 5 to AW - Aerotech Steelfiber i95 Stiff parallel tip Wedges: Glide 4.0 54 and 58 Putter: PLD Custom Kushin 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RollingGreens Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Thunking about a new hybrid or 3 wood, considered a utility/driving iron. Really thinking a driving iron with a graphite shaft would be cool. Maybe even resifting my 4 iron with a graphite shaft is the better idea. Have a small cluster at the top of the bag between my higher lofted 3 wood and 3 hybrid at 18deg Rickp and MattF 2 Quote Stealth 2 Plus 9deg Kai' li Red Stealth 2 13deg Aldilla Rogue Silver Stealth 2 15deg Aldilla Rogue Silver JPX 921 Hot Metal 4-PW Nippon Modus 120s SM8 54 and 58deg Dynamic Gold Wedge Flex Scotty Cameron Newport 2 Titleist ProV1 Hoofer Stand Bag Stewart Q Follow Electric Caddie 300 PRO Rangefinder Official Nippon Regio B+ Driver Shaft Review Official Stewart Q Follow Review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
