Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

We went in a little bigger.

I mean, we start with 11 different polos, four different hoodies and four quarter zips.

From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

So we made a pretty significant investment up front.

just because of the time it takes.

From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

The time from development, the time when you start working with the manufacturers, the time you get your samples that they send back, pick your fabrics, they have to pull the fabrics, they start making it.

So you get one sample of that and it's about 60 to 90 days.

I just think everything's too high priced to be honest.

Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

I've been a consumer of it, but I'm running into backlash as well because pro shops want to maintain the margins and the higher price because then it starts our revenues.

Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

So it's kind of a catch 22.

Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

I want to be more for the consumer, but I'm met with some resistance from a pro shop perspective because they don't want to drop pricing.

Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

On most, yeah.

Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
From Cybersecurity to Golf Apparel - Scott Martin

On most, but they still don't want to bring in the lower pricing.
