Bombsquadgolf....done?

Rumours abound all over the net that Bombsquadgolf is done like dinner.

Anyone else hear the hype?

Done, how so? Litigation?

These rumors have been around for ages and seem to be little more than wishful thinking. There is certainly no shortage of BSG haters but I haven't heard anything new lately. What are you hearing?

I'm hearing it was "white powder" related.

"Heard it went the way of "white powder". All I am going to say, this will get froze up. I know someone that lives very close to the source in California."

That's pretty much all I know. Hence the thread.

I'm not sure what exactly they are, but if I remember correctly I think they had a bunch of REAL EXPENSIVE clubs on ebay. High end stuff, tour issue with very high end shafts (diamana, Matrix etc). I have seen a few things from them but never bought. Every driver I ever saw listed from them started at around $350, which is about $200 more than I am willing to pay for a driver-regardless of shaft.

They were a site that catered to the idiot that had more money than brains. They had a niche market of "Tour" clubs that they offered at ridiculous prices.

That being said, they have had a history of being self promoting and catering to a certain group of people, so much so that several websites have broken away from them and started up as a result of them being maroons.

I only used their Classifieds to buy stuff they paid 5 times as much for 3 weeks prior.

Re: Bombsquadgolf....done?

I hope it's true Rock, those guys are *******s of the highest degree. They banned me for 40 years after I questioned their experience with clubmaking. A bunch of scam artists, selling snake oil. Good riddance!!! Toad can go back to selling baseball cards for all I care, lol

The crazy thing with that whole scheme was that for every you and I, there were 5 guys each lining up to buy the oil.

While I don't blame them for exploiting the market, I do shake my head at the morons who they took to town on a regular basis. You'd think the average joe would figure this out without a chart, blackboard and slide rule.

Re: Bombsquadgolf....done?

I hadn't heard of them at all. One guy told me that he bought this shaft he wanted to trade me at bombsquad golf. I thought it was a company.. I looked it up and it seemed like a site for club making or something.

I thought it was some hack-assed site with nothing to offer.. Seems I was right.

It could be argued that at one time, BSG was THE epitome of Tour and High End golf equipment on the internet, without a doubt.

Things changed when they got bigger in the head, shoddy work and sales practices and a mass exodus occurred as a result.

My guess is that this recent site failure is something else, however.
