Callaway does one thing better than all the rest. No matter what level of golfer you are, they can fit you into something that will work for you. And not just fit you, but micro fit you because they have different levels of gear that will match your skill level. They also fit senior golfers, myself included, much better than the other OEM's and with 10,000 seniors signing up for Medicare every day, that's a really important part of the golfing demographics.
Thanks Callaway for delivering products that allow me to continue to play golf as I enter my senior years.
I don’t get the mizuno love some people are showing. I think the irons put forth by cobra check every box more so than mizuno irons do but then again, everyone’s preference is different. I’d say Callaway won for the year but cobra/titleist was creeping closer than expected.
I concur with many of the other posts. It depends on the definition of “winner.” If we are talking in relative terms, what company had a release that advanced it the most in terms of its size, market share and consumer expectation, I think Cobra was a winner, with the F9 and “Speedback” concept. In absolute terms, Callaway probably was a winner. I think there can be more than one winner.
How do you feel Titleist did with their entirely new line that has been released the last 14 months? I think they botched the driver release by not dropping all 4 TS drivers at one time, but I think having all 4 of them makes it clear they want to have a club for every golfer.
Callaway seems to continue to "win" big here in 2019
pretty much exactly why i started this thread. the cobra momentum is undeniable, though i don't know whether that translated into sales. but then you look at everything callaway released this year and how good it all is, and i felt like they were both winners though in different ways.
I'm going to ask a question for honest feedback and not to cause conflict:
do you think that's due to product and it's performance solely or does their interaction here and on social media boost the choices being posted? I ask because as it's been posted earlier, sales numbers for Callaway equipment and the accolades that results from those numbers are impressive.
I cant help with who wins with golfers, other than THPers, but I can with sales from my info at least.
Largest gains year over year appear to be Cobra and Mizuno.
Callaway has been steady and remains number 1.
There are companies that are down a bit. Ping is down a bit. Titleist is down a bit. TaylorMade slightly.
Do those numbers show a decline in spots on market share or is that just dollars in sales decline or increase?

I am genuinely curious here.... titleist is one of the few companies still on a 2 year release schedule, so are they down because they released the TS2/3 a year ago or should the be really concerned because they released the TS series in this year?
I wasn't speaking only of metal woods. Generally speaking yes they do decline in year 2, but they released irons this year.
True, for some reason I think metal woods having a higher turnover rate than irons so thus would have a bigger impact than iron sales. Unlike us not jobs who change them multiple times a year, I would think people play irons for a few years. Although iron purchases are higher dollar amounts so maybe that is why it is a wash, but I really know next to nothing.
