Saw this on Facebook today and can’t tell if it is supposed to be for real or an elaborate joke?

Don’t care how bad my putting ever got or what the “science” of this putter is. 

Just could not do it... 😎😎

In my bag: Lazrus everything with R flex

The Hammer ws selling odd-looking drivers on TV a few years ago, so I think its serious.  I'm pretty sure the putter shown is also illegal.  The face is required to be longer (heel toe)  than the depth of the putter from front to back.

 Legal or not would not make a difference to me. I just don’t think I could use something like that. 

 No matter how desperate I ever got about my putting which fortunately is still pretty good.

You have to yell "POW" when you make contact and the ball will go in the hole every time 😉

I recently read a tweet on my timeline from a pro or industry person that basically said I can't believe the number of BS products out there in golf land. Can't find it though.

That's nothing.I tried the stubby by cleveland few years ago and I felt it made you putt better because face was just lil bit bigger than ball in form of a cube.Its basically 1 square of that 2 square putter they make.Its a training aid but its legal for play.

He's done a number of infomercials with 5SK, Medicus, and others. I've talked to him a good bit. He's a pro's pro. Phenomenal at his job.

Not sure why he would bother with such a ridiculous product having done that work prior.

Did I say it was? But at least the bracelets are legal right?

There is all sorts of nonconforming golf equipment available - clubs, balls, distance measuring devices, etc.  This has been the case for decades.  It pays to check it out if it looks too strange or unfamiliar, or you could end up getting booted from a tournament for using something like that.

    • Wordle 1,652 X/6* 🟨⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 Yup - one of those Wordle moments….
    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
