haha, same here. I really like Titleist, but every piece of equipment is more expensive than the competitors. When choosing a driver a few weeks ago I was down to either the Titleist 907D2 or the Cleveland Launcher XLS. I just couldn't justify an extra $100 or so for the Titleist over the Cleveland. The thing that gets me is the 907D2 has been out for over a year and still the price has not budged from it's original launch price.
I know it will never come down because people continue to pay the outrageous prices, but I've read before that it costs these companies around $100 bucks to manufacture these drivers (may not be true?). So, make them for $100 and sell them for $400. Seems like they could stand to lower the price and still make a killing while they're at it, but that's just me.
