Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
In essence. When a manufacturer releases a golf club it is 99% of the time one style, design, colour suits all. They are usually longer, straighter, less spin etc etc etc. But that club is aimed at customers who are from the ages of teens to 80's plus. Now seeing as about 60 % of golfers are over 50 yrs old. Is a 50, 60,70,80 yr olds eye for design and styles the same as someone who is in there 20's. I think not.
The only real differance away from a club head is the shaft.
In essence in a Ferrari, what colour would you have. It's the same underneath, but the colour, well everyone's differant
My point is would you pay extra for a custom club if you thought it looked better in the bag. I have lost count the amount of times I have seen clubs on here where one has thought it beautiful and another says it is " Fugly".
I have thought on and off about this for an age. Then lo and behold yesterday I recieved an email where Titliest have brought out some Black ltd edition ap2 and ap3s. They don't look bad at all, but they will fall into the beautiful/fugly discussion bracket.
Now ave done some googling and it has shown me percentages of players v ages, and like I said most players are elderly fossils. But what I cannot find is which age bracket spends the most on clubs. Young or old. Again is that actually a factor, would older or younger players be more likely to pay for Ltd edition or customised clubs. I don't know.
Now Golf club makers must put some cosmetic looks into designing a golf club. Who is/are the people that have the final say on what the club actually looks like, before it hits the shops. And is there an actual target audience for said club. Or is it just down to said club is for said Handicap range.
Finally would you pay for customised/ ltd edition clubs. Even if it just a differant coloured head on a driver or woods.
Thoughts please folks ðŸ‘
