Hopefully manufacturers will design a new prototype series and release only the best they tested. Unfortunately there are many major manufacturers who believe they need to design and release 2,3, or even 4 newer prototypes hoping that at least one of these will be a big success. This approach is for losers who do not have genuine new functional technology. They try to sell their product with bells and whistles rather than new cutting edge functional products. Fortunately there are several manufacturers that do focus on real thought out technology (Ping) rather than throwing multiple prototypes (TaylorMade) out in the market hoping one of them makes a big hit. Actually the hope that one of several new prototypes makes a hit insults the buyer who pays a very inflated retail price only to drastically lower the price a few months later. The companies that adhere to this technique should lose any credibility with their ripped of customers when they see the heavily reduced prices a few months later.

nobody is going to buy the taylormade r9, it has a smaller head size, it’s too expensive, and the r7 was a disappointment.
