To help members of our community learn more about counterfeit products and their risks I thought I would start a thread on the topic. I know in our Scotty Cameron Collector Group we see fakes all the time on ebay, and many times it is not easy to tell the difference.
There is more relevant information on the a website called http://keepgolfreal.com/ where golfers like yourself have the opportunity to hear directly about counterfeiting and read about raid actions etc...
You can also report potential counterfeits to Titleist directly at www.titleist.com/.../report-counterfeit-product
By helping police our industry it will hopefully help to curb the amount of fake product that is flooding the U.S. as well as other parts of the world. Check it out and become more of an expert on what to look out for so it never happens to you!
Obviously, by only purchasing products from your authorized Titleist Dealer will help prevent this however whenever you go into the secondary market or other dealers sometimes what you think you are buying is not the real thing.
I look forward to everyone's comments on this.. as well as experiences!
