I have been thinking a lot about marketing recently and wanted to have a good debate and topic on marketing and hype. Lets keep flaming and attacks out of this please.
Honest question here. How much does marketing and hype play a role in the driver that you are playing? Would the R11, RAZR Hawk and/or 910 be so sought after if they were being put out by other brands?
If another brand put out these clubs would they be as sought after? Lets look at it another way, if Crackomatic were to put out an all black face with all the adjustability in it, plus have a nice good standard shaft offering and feature good performance, would anybody be talking about it?
There are really both sides to the equation here that make sense to me in that many of these companies do have and put more into R&D than others and are innovative while others are always just one step behind. Then there are those that say driver technology maxed out a few years ago and now its all gimmicks. Lets have a civilized conversation about both sides if we can and please do give us your honest thoughts and opinions.
