    Mike, 

    Thanks for the response from you and Bubba. I don't post a lot of things, but when I see things like that it angers me. I feel like I need to put the information out there and let others know we are watching.

    I'm a little disappointed to see that some of the prototype balls have shown up on ebay.
    I have taken part in 2 previous test and would never consider putting them up on ebay.

    Hi Tim,

    Thanks for the post and like you, we're also disappointed when we see the prototypes show up on auction sites. We do our best to guard against this but unfortunately there is only so much we can do.

    We truly value all of the feedback we receive from the test panels and we know the vast majority of the Team Titleist members who receive the prototypes take the testing seriously. 

    Again, the good news is that  the vast, vast majority of Team Titleist members that are selected take part in the testing and have fun doing it. And like you said, most members would never consider listing the prototypes.

    Thanks again for the post and thanks for being a part of Team Titleist.

    Cheers,

    Mike

    I'm Right there with you Tim!

    People are always looking to take advantage of a good situation.

    I think that if anyone sees this stuff out on Ebay or other similar sites, we should send their names out to Mike and Bubba, calling them out.  Mike and Bubba can then see the posts, but not necessarily post them for all to view, but keep them on the naughty list and allow other TT members to partake in these opportunities.

    Call them out....

    I agree.  I think it is great that Titleist takes the time to engage the customer and it is frustrating to see some people taking advantage of these opportunities.  I guess you can find a bad apple in every bushel.  Thanks for Titleist for providing these opportunities to the TT members!

      I could not agree more! I never post anything on this message board, but to think some would take advantage of this is ridiculous. I did not receive any balls this go around but I assure you none of us will if this kind of activity persists. 

      With that being said I want to extend a THANK YOU to everyone at  Titleist and the wonderful products being made today.

    i agree with Mike C it is really frustrating that people are doing this becuase titleist dosent have to involve the public in any test panels to me it would be an honor to recieve prototype balls and be able to play what the pros play.
