What would it be like?
« on: January 31, 2004, 04:07:35 AM »
What do you think would happen if like 3 bowling companies were bought, and made into one, like Columbia 300, DT, and Ebonite.....Dyno-tite 300 HAHA. Would you expect better or worse things to come from this company. Or what companies would you like to see combined. I would like Hammer, Track, and Storm. Though Dyno-tite 300 is a pretty cool name! haha

Um, you would see a bowling monopoly and eventually they would fall behind smaller companies and fold. *cough* AMF!!!*cough* larger companies loose touch with the real client and then just make products that are easy to market and can fit 80% of the market. while 20% that remains, looks to the smaller more inovative companies.

Considering most "companies" today run multiple label lines

Brunswick and Lane #1--while lane #1 is a seperate company, covers are still made by Big b

Ebonite and Hammer

Columbia 300, Track, Aint My Fault and Morich

Storm and Rotogrip--I am not sure if that is still true

So basically the answer to your question is---its already happened.  Dude is right, Columbia and its counterparts mainly make "Hook in a box".  Its is getting ridiculous with Track and Morich producing particle after particle ball.  Just ridiculous.  I'll stick with the B.
