jbh1212: oddessday l98 putter back to pro shop would be nice why remove something that is selling well.
It's the same putter you currently have. The only difference is the branding.
Besides, I thought it was pretty clear why they removed it. Because they could put the same putter back into the Pro Shop (simply rebranded) and charge a bit more for it. I seriously doubt they saw a decrease in sales due to the rebranding. For the most part, players purchase specs not brand.
Sure, players may want a certain brand. But when it comes down to it, they're still buying the specs. And if they believe the specs are much better and will improve scoring, they'll make the purchase.
