Cost to the club maker or approximate = product costs to the club maker in this case, not TW costs, You know full well why he doesn't want these prices floating around.
So please don't hide behind semantics unless as a club maker you are wiling to share the price you pay from manufacturers (is that a more accurate description for you) for products you use to build sets. That way we can see your costs vs what you charge for a build, without a personal in house fitting, I might add., where time for fitting equates to costs.

    The difference between Tom's COST of goods vs what he sells it at is semantics? I don't think many in business would agree with that.

    No matter, not going to get into an Almo type back and forth, since that's obviously not been productive. It's my opinion and worth what you paid for it.

    Dumb question, how do you "quote" someone elses post?

        Oh, nice! Thanks, I don't think I would have done that in 100 years. :-)

          I never said COGS = Price accounting 101

          But doesn't matter as the poster was gentlemanly enough to honor the Wishon TOA and remove the PRICE. Or to make it simple the cost to the CLUBMAKER which is the entire reason TW asks it not be publically discussed. Just as manufacturers do not release the price or your cost to purchase from them.

          Jrock, I apologize. Thanks for cleaning this up.

          Aaron,

          At post #23 you quoted pdxhak.
          If you go back to that post and and hover your mouse over the white box with pdxhak and the arrow in it, his post above it will vibrate.

          Gee sorry i asked. However if value golf can sell s perfectly good head for $10 and make money then if I understsnd whst tom is selling for, I think he has a much higher profit margin. I would buy some pings before I would pay that.

            potbunker I have some Innovative 100gr .370 graphite shafts (new uncut without graphics) if that will help you. Cheap.
            And I'll include a set of Wishon 560's or 755's (both 2* strong / loft, 2 rounds each) at a great price.

            I don't know a thing about the shafts, but I'm interested. I need something for lower flight and generally X flex, but a good stiff can work. Let me know more on what they are.

              Just found my catalog sitting in my garage ( I think it was being hidden on me) , but man the prices really seem to be creeping up. I guess I'm getting cheap, but I don't want to drop that much money to build clubs myself anymore, much less pay somebody else to build these things up at at those prices. I think it's a good thing Tom has a following or he might find himself a market casualty.

              Just found out this morning my wife threw out the 2016 catalog 🙁 She has a very good sense when I am about spend money 🙂

              I like the 565MC better than the 560MC from a looks standpoint. Cleaner and simpler. This kind of look is what gets me drooling.....

              Eye candy indeed! Those were so popular that I have had trouble finding a set that wasn't chattered up and browned out. You find a clean set?

                Yep, No browning and very little play!

                That era of Hogan's were pretty, I remeber drooling over them at DSG and questioning how anybody could ever spend so much on clubs... How I wish I had bought just that amount now lol. They were an exceptional value club, even stock, especially for those days.
