Hubub?
« on: February 06, 2007, 07:31:07 AM »
With all this going on in the misc forum that Columbia is going to be or has been sold to Ebonite, what gives with the Lane #1 end of the Columbia covers?
If it is so, will Richie still have run of the coverstocks and be able to tinker and develop his own covers or.....

If it is still so, could this have been a move on Columbia's part (in dealing with Richie) to help Ebonite corner the market?

As of this moment there are only 3-4 Major players in the ball dept...

Brunswick
Columbia
Ebonite-Hammer
Storm-Roto Grip

As much as I don't want to say it,
Lane #1 has grown BIGTIME but is still not widely used.
Visonary/Circle Small
Morich  Small
Lanemasters. Small
Elite ?? need I say more?
Oh and the Holepounder series??? whats the name of their co?

Will it have an effect if it is true???
Trigg? Sterner? Warren? Kidace? Beans?
Any thoughts??

Great question, what will happen to Track/AMF as well?

I wonder if its a merger or a buyout?
