Do any of you remember Burrows Golf?

[JerseyThursday]

I’m just curious.
I was involved with the advertising of this company from its beginning all the way to its quick bankruptcy. For a few years they had the biggest and most action packed booth at the PGA show in Orlando.
I still have a bunch of the clubs sitting in a corner of my basement. I shake my head every time I walk by them.

And didn't Nike just buy their head/hosel system for their fitting carts?

[Wisco-Kid]

Yeah I remember them. What the heck happened to them????? Was their equipment junk?

[elchene]

Oh yeah. I still remember them. My local golfsmith still has a few of those wedges with the circular hole in them. Never tried the clubs though.

Ive seen those drivers around at local sports stores.

an ion putter?

No, actually they only used the best materials and the design was sound.

It was a matter of bad timing (the entire golf club market was over-saturated at the time of their introduction) and they tried to be too big, too fast (the biggest booth at the PGA show, full page ads in the all the golf publications, TV commercials on the Golf Channel, etc.). Millions and millions of $ was lost.

I have one of their three woods and really hit it well. Kind of a funky shaft,
but not a bad club. I only took it out when I started playing the Halo 2i hybrid.

If the Quick-Fit system was sold to Nike, me and a crowd of other unpaid creditors would like to know.

Where did you hear this?

No, their clubs are actually pretty nice. I'm still using their 3 wood in my bag and my dad uses all the woods by them and also has that putter. Kinda strange design with the "Power Sphere" thing but looks pretty good in person and you can store a golf ball in there if you're really bored
