Callaway would probably be first to act, but require the consumer to trade in old Callaway for new Callaway. Then they could sell the trade-ins on Callaway Pre-Owned.

Hireko could start by slashing prices on better products and allowing trade in discounts for older products- say 5 bucks peer club to a max of 50 dollars. i promise you it will work. richard siles A wonderful idea. if you could get the greedy o.e.m manufacturers like nike, taylor-made, adams, etc. to retail their products for reasonable prices or at least eliminate price fixings- why do all drivers cost 399etc- and alllow reatilers to discount without penalties, this would be a boom to the industry.If retailers allowed cash for clunkers and agave clubs to charity programs they could take the value of the clubs off their taxes. evewryone wins. they get sales, i get new clubs and charities benefit.

I was trying to replace my 1994 King Cobra Oversize and just couldn't find anything(yet) that I had as much confidense in. Have a set of Cleveland CG4 and Cobra FP(2007). Guess I should hit ebay with them. Dang Ron! And I was feeling bad about having 3 sets in my garage! My sets aren’t so old though.
