Here is something that I don't see very often. Something made in Japan.

Fourteen is one of the small golf equipment manufacturers in Japan. The equipments they produce are very poplar among the professionals and low handicap amateurs.

Although, the pricing you see here are much less than what they sell for in Japan, they are very expensive in the US market. They have not done the homework. That is very unfortunate.

They have one of the best wedges in the market, but their price of $169 is about $40 to $50 higher than brand mane wedges like Titleist, Cleveland, Callaway and Ping.

I can't find anything that is made in the USA. Does this country produce anything any more? It is very sad. Also, there is not much I can find that is made in Japan either.

Yahoo is loosing to Google.
Nokia is loosing to Apple.

Is this a good idea?
Can they make any dent in the market?
Nobody knows if this is a good idea.

But doing something is better than doing nothing. I wish them well.

Los Angeles has the second largest Japanese community in the US after New York. We are starting to look at possibilities to expand our service to Japanese community in greater Los Angeles area.

The first step is to place an advertisement on Japanese free paper called US Lighthouse. We are already getting some calls from this advertisement. It is encouraging.
