Robert; I think I know why you are asking this question - supposedly because these babies are red hot right now, more so than Adams. I don't think Orlimar is publicly traded, but will be talking to or seeing someone in the business soon (had the misfortune of signing on with Snake Eyes!)to get the inside. Hit 'em long and straight!

Orlimar is privately held--company is based in California, outside of Carlsbad I think. I have heard they may go public before the end of the year. ADGO--be careful with. Customer service with ADGO is very poor--peoples enthusiasm for the club seems to have dried up. Additionally, there must be 20-30 copies of the club on the market..the "Super Concorde" etc. I will say this--I have been attending PGA shows for over 8 years and Adams was the first to ever "sell" (not just write orders, but physically take charge cards and sell clubs--and they werent just selling their booth, they did this on Day 2 of the show!) out of their booth at the PGA show in Orlando this past January. I thought it was very tacky. I had never seen it done before. Orlimar, on the other hand--very difficult to clone. Especially with the alphamarging face--and tungsten copper soles. In fact, I have yet to see a Orlimar copy. I did by some ELY today at $12 5/8! BTW--I have a FANTASTIC outlet for Orlimar Trimetals if you guys are trying to get them and having difficulty. I hear to order from the infomertial via factory is 5-6 weeks waiting time. His price is $264.99+shipping and is tax free if shipped outside of Florida. Most lofts and flexes in stock. They must have 150 pieces on their showroom floor. Regards, Jeff
