Golf marketing seems to be rife with hucksters who are trying to pull one over on unsuspecting masses. Recently I bought a new cap because my was getting funky. I picked it out for the color and fit, but noticed after I bought it that it had a magnetic brim and came with a Titleist ball marker. That's cool, I thought. I tend to fumble around in my pockets wasting time trying to find something to mark my ball, so I figured it would be a convenient way to save a few seconds per hole, not to mention some frustration avoidance. When I looked at the back of the packaging, I noticed a peculiar phrase on this Titleist ball marker: "Provides a seamless transition from club to ball marker." Now my set is complete What's something ridiculous you've noticed?
