Anytime someone takes the time and effort to link to this site, I'm extremely appreciative. Well, at least that's what I used to think.Recently, I came across an eBay listing that linked to the Tiger Woods Scotty Cameron Putter post. To my astonishment, it appears that Grouchy Golf is being used to help sell a fake Tiger Woods Scotty Cameron Putter!
See it for yourself, if it's still available. It's an eBay auction entitled "Scotty Cameron Tiger Woods Red Circle Newport 2 Pro T."
From what I can tell, it's just a dinged-up Scotty Cameron Newport Two Pro Platinum not worth more than a C-note that's been doctored up to look like Tiger's Newport 2 303 GSS.
The putter face and the bottom of the putter are the dead giveaways. While this technically may not be a counterfeit Scotty Cameron, it is grossly misleading at best with the seller claiming that "This club is the same club that Tiger Woods used on tour." To those in the know, it is obviously not the Cameron putter model that is in the hands of the world's #1.It is such a blatant fake that it is laugh-out-loud, rolling-on-the-floor hilarious. It kinda reminds me of those cheesecocks who modified their Pontiac Fieros with cheap-looking fiberglass body panels to make them look like Ferrari Testarossas.
Who are these people kidding?! If you're going to copy a Ferrari, at least get the color right. To my knowledge, Ferrari has never produced a car in Puke beige. Can you imagine if this guy tried to pawn this POS off as a bona fide Testarossa? I hope that no one would be fooled into buying it, just like I hope that no one would be fooled into buying that fake Tiger Woods putter.

I have seen several "Tiger Woods" autographed golf balls for auction on E-Bay. Only problem is that TW doesn't sign golf balls.
That's not a Testarossa??? Damn it!!
The fake putter does look a little similar to the real putter...for those who doesn't know well...
Anyway, Really? If TW doesn't autograph golf balls, then what items does he actually autograph? Curious...
I don't know about fake putters . . but Nick Faldo is the genuine article as far as golf commentators go. Maybe CBS is a lot smarter than we thought they were. ABC remains very golf challenged.
As far as Tiger not signing golf balls, well while he was at Stanford he played in the BYU Cougar classic at the Riverside Country Club in Provo Utah and he signrd many gofl balls that day I was there saw hin do it. So there could be genuine signed balls for sale on ebay.
