There will always be major interest in what the big dogs: Nike, Callaway, Taylor Made, Ping, Titleist, Cleveland, and Cobra are doing. The next tier of sizeable brands like Precept, Maxfli, Wilson, Macgregor, Hogan, and Mizuno will get their fair share of press but beyond that it IS hard work. <br /> There are some great smaller companies with really cool products like the ones you've already mentioned (including but not limited to: Tour Edge, Nickent, Niclaus, Burrows, Feel, Honma, and Vulcan... to mention a few) that are worthy of a peek. Us smaller guys have the ability to innovate, service, and move in different ways and hopefully succeed with alternate strategys. I invite you to take a look at our website and comment back to me at any time. Thanks for taking the time to read my comment and I look forward to your future articles.
