Very negatively. There isn't a day that goes by where it doesn't annoy me how much I suck at it. It's probably the single most frustrating thing in my life. But what are you gonna do?

This thread is what I come here for. It's just ...

This is quite interesting just from a data collection standpoint? If the app gets decent uptake there will probably be some more interesting insights on what your average hacks are actually doing.

Did you know Patrick Mcnee was an avid nudist? There's really nothing like a bespoke birthday suit!

Lottie Woad is among the most English names in existence. Possibly rivaled by my old school chum David Saint John Oxley-Oxland and '90s High Street Kensington flatmate Greville Longfield Lushington.

This is right. You go to growth PE when you need money to get to the next level. I would expect significant investment to expand LAB's production capabilities and reduce backlogs. Maybe Auto/AI fitting as part of the order process. Bigger marketing budget, definitely -- likely including more paid contracts on tour. Again, LAB has now essentially become a very small part of the world's largest luxury goods conglomerate. This is a halo investment, not a race to the bottom.

Catterton is a good shop and they understand premium brand equity very well, being part owned by LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy). If they are looking to get into golf, it makes perfect sense to pick a category leader like LAB. Last thing they will want to do is to take the company downmarket. Also, as a 20-year growth PE guy, I'd just like to say that I am nourished by your hatred.

“It’s so incredibly hard to build real community online, and GolfWRX has done that in a really meaningful way and in a scaled way,” Pro Shop co-founder & CEO Joe Purzycki said. “It’s just an amazing thing to interact with. From a Pro Shop perspective, we just love the community aspect of what they built, the scale of it and the engagement. It’s a really hard thing to replicate, and we’re excited about being stewards of that community.” One of the best ways to cultivate your community is to not inform or engage your community about big changes affecting your community. Allegedly.

I can't wait to be super-served by a modern golf company launched just over a year ago! So f****** pumped. Woo.

Not sure how I missed this thread until now. Did you end up joining? I'm also near Midtown and ended up at Sugarloaf while also sitting on the wait list for Ansley. If you use the express lane on I-85, getting out and back isn't too painful. Either of you feel free to shoot me a PM if you want to get a round in at Sugarloaf in the Fall.

I've already got an Anarch and have been very pleased with it. If I were to be blessed with another, it would go to my son to replace his BlueTees -- which is notably inferior. From the gist of the survey questions, it appears Vortex are thinking about GPS integration in future models.
