I don't know.
At the end of the day, swinging the club better
and making good decisions on the course.
Those are the two things that really take your handicap down, but swinging the club well and making good club choices, but making good decisions.
But again, so many people are fixated on clubs.
So about two to four million putters are sold a year in the U.S.,
$550 million in putter sales a year are made.
Throughout the world, the estimated number of putter sales by dollar volume is $3.5 billion.
So that's a lot of PT Barnum suckers out there buying new putters every year.
In terms of the big brands here,
Callaway Odyssey, TaylorMade, The Spider, Titleist, Scotty Cameron's in their line.
Fourth, Ping, and fifth, Lab.
Lab Companies is a putter company that started about eight years ago.
It was more the center, you know, I don't pronounce it right, but the center-facing putter.
But Lab Company has really hit it out of the park recently.
Many of the estimates show that they've probably surpassed Ping in sales.
I cannot tell you the amount of people that we go off with
that now thinks that they are the next scotty scheffler because they have a lab putter it's literally gone to a lot of people's heads i know a friend of mine recently got one for his wife and we talked about a a project trying to get his wife to put better and she's actually a very good putter and she's actually the most brilliant person in that family that family actually created a son who's a valedictorian and we generally give that woman the credit
for that creation of the son who's a valedictorian the other son is actually brilliant and fantastic too and as good as they come but i but i segue but this is how bad this putter thing has gotten my friend feels compelled by the lab putter for his wife i don't know if that's because she thinks she's going to be better putting with it or he thinks she's going to be happy with him because of it the old concept happy wife happy life must live on in that family of valedictorians in that event
That's the U.S.
