“I normally test product for at least a year before launching. This is the second time that I am trying to use our customers for testing. I tried this with the Kaden Series and we got lots of great feedback and made some adjustments and I was able to bring these to market quickly. I don’t personally want to test these for a year because I wouldn’t be able to launch in a timely manner. I f I can get feedback from a couple hundred people, I’ll know quickly if I have a winner or not.” – Gary Dobyns
Customer Testing Opportunity
Customer Testing Opportunity
We have a limited release of 3 of our most popular Champions models and 1 brand new Champion A-Rig Special, each featuring a different, unique cork handle. Due to the declining quality of cork in today’s market place, we are looking into new and different opportunities. We have discounted these rods with the new handle designs to get them into the market quickly. We are looking for honest feedback from our customers on the looks, durability, and desirability for each style. You can find these on our website at https://dobynsrods.com/specials/.

From Gary
I’d like to thank all the anglers that have tested the new cork and have given us feedback. We made four very popular models of Champion Series rods with the new cork and put them out to the public to test and give thoughts. The response overall is very good. There have been some negative comments by a few anglers but it’s been very positive mostly. Here’s how the feedback to date is running: 82% of the anglers love the new cork. With four different styles, the comments vary on which style is their favorite. 11% like the new cork fine and just want cork handles and 7% do not like it at all. Some of the commenters believe we’re looking at saving money with the new cork. But, in truth, it costs a lot more and I’m just looking at new options as cork quality is declining. We have some test samples left, so anyone wanting a good deal on a test rod, there are some still available. I’m still looking for comments. Again, thanks to all for the testing and feedback. It really helps to test something new and getting hundreds of anglers using it is the fastest way to help me make decisions.
