CHAIRMAN'S LETTER

Dear Members:

Thank you for your attendance at the Golf Club Materials Meeting. The presentation by Mike Blair of Pure Golf of Hartford was somewhat disheartening in the fact that all investment cast club head components are purchased offshore. We are continuing to lose our industry base in the States.


Mike Blair (left) rolling his eyes at February 11 meeting when Stu Weiss (right) asked if his Puregolf brand of clubs
would help knock off strokes from Stu's game after program chairman Jack Piela claimed his score dropped from 115 to 95 after buying Puregolf clubs
This contributes to the decreasing membership in ASM

Plans for Materials Week in April (711) include a Career Fair at the New England Air Museum on April 8. Call Joe Zucco at (203) 250-6922.

Networking to help you succeed through ASM Hartford,
Stu Weiss
