Thanks for the thorough reply. It's interesting to hear your take on the pricing. Based on my own pricing $120 also seems reasonable to me, but the opposite opinion has been expressed as well.
Over time hopefully the guys will be able to lower production costs with volume, but for now the margins are pretty slim.
I think the price point of 120USD for a club is entirely reasonable, in fact I was slightly surprised to see it so 'low'.
These days my Dad and I take golf a lot less seriously - and yet still somehow play just as well / badly as when we were trying harder - so I wouldn't personally support this campaign, however I bet many, many golfers would once the word is out a bit more.
Good luck to your friend and his dad. :)
