6 blades, 5 bhb1, 1 unsure. 2 mid mallets if my count is right.
Something about silver irons look sooo good… Those.All DBM are pure though… I’d be rocking those in irons and wedges for this one.
Does Ben Hogan do fittings?
Is a Edge/PTx pro combo available?
With a dtc company like this what is their niche or definition of success? Units sold, share of market(current %)… something else.
Probably cannot answer but where is the company focusing? Future releases what tech is coming?
I’m loving the headcovers, since we didn’t get woods we didn’t get those.
im really pumped to see how y’all hit this driver. I know I wasn’t catching it great but it was a low spin monster.

Time to raid the pro shop.

I thought I read one time in an article that if they lost your stuff or it arrived late (think it applied more to the golf bag) they would reimburse you for what you have to purchase to get by. A new shirt, shorts, hat, and a new pair of shoes. Maybe they would still do that if all that stuff is in your bag.
Keep the pictures and questions rolling!
How was the pizza…I missed seeing any pictures.
How does the Ben Hogan nostalgia & influence have with design & appearance on their clubs?
What irons come in lefty, and any news on expanding this?

I know they partnered with Club Champion where you can get fit.
Did Ben Hogan sell out all of the Limited Edition stand bags they offered a few months ago?!:oops:

Clubs look great. Thanks for the pics. Isn’t crazy exciting to get new clubs at a gathering like that? You show up and know the clubs will be there. And yet the excitement is overwhelming.
Rock on!
Chz pizza untouched. Pepperoni and meat lovers worked over.

Some people think cheese pizza is the perfect pizza. [USER=2320]@Canadan[/USER] if I recall?
This sounds like it’s been a fantastic time so far!
Ben Hogan question: With the growth in DTC product companies how does the company project growth and manage product releases? Spaced between giant company releases or just at own pace?
The pictures are great so far. Those clubs looksl amazing. The course looks amazing.
Man, 2 hours in and already over 125 posts, this is gonna be epic! Clubs look great, you guys are in for an amazing couple days!

If Ben Hogan Golf could change one thing about restrictions on golf club design, what would it be?
Are there or have there been club component companies (shafts, grips) reluctant to deal with DTC companies?
You guys are going to have such a great time, I’m ready to buckle in and go along for the ride.
