Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough is adding Acushnet Holdings (GOLF) to the short side of Investing Ideas. Below is a brief note.

So... you're saying people aren't gobbling up ProVs? 

Here's a good short everyone can understand (that's also bouncing to lower-highs on low-volume today). Retail analyst Jeremy McLean is our resident golf pro and bear on the stock.

Here's an excerpt from his recent Institutional Research note on the name (GOLF):

The current expectation for GOLF’s sales in 2020 is down 1.3%. And EPS down 12%.  With the US at 51% of sales, EMEA at 13%, and Japan at 12%, those sales and earnings expectations are wildly off from what will be reality. As a reference in 2009 ELY sales were down 15%, EBIT was down 125%.

Sell the bounce,
