garyt1957 I think I may have posted something along these lines on FGI last time I checked out Bang's website. How are these guys staying in business? They're selling the Super Bangomatic for $269 head only! My first ever component head some 20 years ago was the Big bang 450. They still sell that for $139 head only. The original BOM is $199. Can they really sell many heads at this price?
Rickochet garyt1957 My first ever component head some 20 years ago was the Big bang 450. They still sell that for $139 head only. I bought a new BB 450 from DTG last year for $49 so they might be "priced" at $149 but I wonder how many they sell at that price. Too bad. I always liked the quality of Bang heads and they had lots of loft options.
garyt1957 Rickochet I thought I bought one for $79 a few years ago. Wanted 16* for my Dad. No way I'd pay $139.
Tinker Pretty hard to understand hanging on to this old inventory instead of blowing it out and bringing in new product. Still trying to sell square drivers? They where dead 6 months after they came out. Get rid of them for 10 bucks a head( if you can) or sell them for scrap metal and move on.
rsvman BOM is a great head, but it's old and they can't possibly be selling many of them at those prices!
Rickochet rsvman BOM is a great head, I also had a BB450, Bangster, FU2 and Mellow Yellow. All nice heads. Fit and finish was always top notch.
Rickochet I just went to their website and noticed that you cannot order directly from their website. They also only list 8 distributors in the US. I'll bet Almo could shed some light on this but I don't think he has posted here in a long time.
DC300 The prices are nuts. It’s old technology in a dying market, they are probably trying to squeeze out whatever they can.
ValueGolf We sell a ton of 2 particular Bang Products: SF Fairway, and Super BOM. The rest is dead enough that we stopped carrying, but those 2 products really sell.
ValueGolf Let me get out my sales numbers, lol We wouldn't carry anything that doesn't sell, it's a recipe for disaster. The Super BOM sells well especially overseas.
letthebigdogshunt ValueGolf Just out of curiosity what makes the Super BOM so super? That head, the BOM was one of the best Almo sold, at least for me. I still have one plus the BOM 3 & 5 woods.
Spuzz ValueGolf How's the Single Length Returns Dept doing? Bryson is barely beating the lone Amateur this week. 😉
Spuzz letthebigdogshunt the BOM was one of the best Almo sold Still my fav of all of them. I have a 12* and my son has a 10.5. The Mellow Yellow is second but it's more fashion than function for me. I'd take a 12 or 14 degree off someone"s hands if they had one in decent shape. A close third is the Bangenstein., just because.
letthebigdogshunt A couple years ago Steve put up a couple Bang heads as prizes in the Masters contest that I somehow won. I got a BOM with the American flag on it that he had made Special for President Bush. I guess it did not turn out the way he wanted (Almo) so it went back in his stash hidden in his office. He was notorious for losing things in that office. 😇
