I have reviewed several golf clubs and sets of golf clubs, but none of them stood head and shoulders above their peers. That is, until I tried Alpha's C830.4. The driver blew me away from the first drive. Well, the first drive wasn't the best, I wasn't warmed up enough. But, thereafter it was fantastic in distance, accuracy, forgiveness, everything. In my reviews, I try to be even handed and not too critical or overly positive, but the driver was explosive!
Although they're really just getting started with trying to break into the "everyman" golfer market, I'm surprised Alpha hasn't been getting more attention.
In thinking back over my years as a golfer, I can't think of an occassion when a newcomer manufacturer immediately broke into the golf market and was a quick success. Well, Nike did it, but they had their name to get things rolling. That's all they had, because their clubs were substandard, not so now. But, Alpha has a truly superior product and one that needs to be experienced by more people.
I hope the golf industry as relates to manufacturing isn't a "closed shop," and Alpha doesn't get shut out of he chance to succeed. Then again, if the Callaways and Pings of the world are smart, they'll do what they can to keep Alpha where they are. The coming months will begin to tell the tale. Find Alpha clubs, give them a try and you'll see how great they are.
