Damn will this topic just go away. People will say because they are going to Mexico they will stop buying Brunswick. I will continue to use Brunswick until I see a reason not to like quality drops or they no longer fit my game.

As much as I want to see these topics gone and as many times as I have said I will stay with Brunswick I will say it again. I will still stay with Brunswick before, during, and after the company moves to Mexico.

Smart move? Stupid move?
Who are we to judge?
We are just a consumer, we buy the product for the quality, without seeing/trying any of the future product and try to make any like and dislike comment is so naive.

I have never tried any of their stuff despite the temptation and I guess I never will now.
This is one of the things that are wrong with this country.
I think that anytime a company moves to Mexico or any other foreign nation they should be slammed with HUGE fees to import their products.
Maybe that would prevent all this garbage.
Just my opinion, but I am die hard American and will not buy foreign if at all possible, which is getting more and more difficult by the day.

I wont buy them, I live near Muskegon and will be a loyal american and not buy foreign made goods unless forced to, and with bowling balls I have a choice so no, i will not purchase ANY brunswick in the NEAR future, UNLESS they release something spectacular.

But then again, i never really bought any brunswick anyway

SO what kind of clothes do you wear? Take a look to see what country they are made in. What kind of bowling shoes do you use? I bet they are not made in the USA. Yes we all agree that it sucks they are moving the plant. If Columbia moved all their plants out of the States would you still use Track? Come on people wake up and realize that if you say you will not buy Brunswick due to they are moving a production plant to Mexico that you better stop buying almost everything due to it being made out of country.

OK, i said IF I HAVE A CHOICE as to what i buy i would go with USA. And to answer your questions cloths is a must so i dont care where it is from, my bowking shoes are ABS. And if Columbia moved out of the USA I would be ok with it AS long as they are making good stuff still.

this is my opinion, and Brunswick is ok with me still, i just am not interested in what they are selling right now.

Not only will this topic *never* go away, but neither side will be able to convince the other to take their position on it.  Abortion, gun control, death penalty, stem cells, Brunswick in Mexico.  Get used to it.

Ok, smart-aleck, who told you to bring reality into this picture??

Has anyone here taken a look under the hood of their "American" cars?  It's rather interesting.  We could have some BR members walking...in their bare feet.

That's been my point since the news came out of Brunswick moving the plant to Mexico.
