They don’t publish it because they don’t do it for marketing it recognition but they go above and beyond for wounded vets. Free fitings and clubs. none of us signed up to be able to get discounts or free stuff upon our termination of service. Ping is one of two golf companies that are tops in golf. There’s no marketing bs or glory seeking. They are a top notch brand and I’m a proud supporter of the brand and have been for more than a decade. Callway only recently began their program or advertising their program after the large success that the pxg for heroes program demonstrated. I'm not discounting them, or their brand by any means. It's an amazing thing what they do. You are right I never see Ping Ad's, they let their equipment speak for itself. I'm sure if I proved I was a Vet they would extend it to me. Just from reading it seemed like I wouldn't qualify. I support any company that gives back or assists Vets. Sorry if my initial comment came off wrong, I'm quite blunt and don't mince words, and have a tendency for stuff to come out not how I intend. My apologies.

I'm not a vet so ive never personally looked into it but always heard in side conversations how great it was. Greatly appreciate your service @Maltenator. Hopefully all wounds are healed up! Thank you. I'm all good happened back in the end of 2003. Dealt with a lot for a few years post incident, but I'm all good now. Honestly it doesn't matter how great or small it is, when showing gratitude, and giving back. These companies do so much more behind the scenes that we don't know about with Birdies For the Brave, and other organizations like them. Hell I get 4 free tickets every year through Birdies For the Brave to any tournament excluding Majors.

StrokerAce Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 Since the sale seems to be over I'm going to lock this thread... They still have great deals if you're a first responder so it's worth checking out.
