Callaway Golf – Case B
Ely Callaway felt proud as he took stock of the year 1997 in his report to
shareholders. Callaway Golf had yet another year of strong growth in sales, with net
sales up by $125 million from 1996. Sales in the US had increased 19% while sales to
Europe and Asia had increased 46% and 20% respectively. International sales, which

deliver new, innovative golf equipment at regular intervals since its introduction of the
Big Bertha in 1992. In the preceding five years it had introduced the Great Big Bertha
Drivers, the Great Big Bertha Fairway Woods, Big Bertha War Bird Metal Woods, and
Big Bertha irons, most of which had been...
