I was about to sell it, then a guy posted a BB Alpha for trade with BCP as his trade interest.

I loved the BB Alpha I hit at demo days. I figure I can probably sell it for what I got the BCP for if I don't like it. Or trade it for something else.

Now that it's official I can say this.

Dicks just fired all their Pros. Gave them a severance package and was told they are done.

I really hope the vendors in the golf industry pull a their product out of Dicks Sporting Goods. Such a bad deal for over 400 Class A Pros.

Really bad for them IMO.

There are assistant super jobs all over the place. Very few head jobs though.

Good for me right now, and hopefully I'll catch the wave of baby boomers starting to retire from their head jobs.

and not a one of these 400 guys knew how to build a club. The people that work at big box stores are a waste of space when it comes to club fitting and building.

Why in the world Dicks care about PGA pros?

They tried it out and gave them a job for a number a years but Dicks golf sales are hemorrhaging their bottom line. Obviously, these pga pros brought nothing Ito the table for dicks.. What was Dicks supposed to do???

Actually it's the opposite. Over 200 stores hit their plan or exceeded it for 4 straight years. They advertise a pga in every store. The vps were dumb to add a huge percentage on sales for this year. They are struggling due to that. They now have to change their entire marketing campaign. I beat plan by 3% 6% 10% in my 3 years and I was middle of the pack. So the pros actually did make a difference. It's the stock holders and vps who screwed them.

Also we were told that as long as Ed Stack was in charge a PGA would always be in stores. Obviously that wasn't true.
