I'm sure I'm going to get creamed for this, but Ping has every right to do this, and they have been doing it for years. It makes a nice sob story that the guy discounted to military, but the bottom line is he broke his agreement with Ping.

Whether or not you agree with their decision is one thing, but they have every right to make it and they have been VERY successful with it so far. Ping is a private company with the most loyal customers in the industry... this isn't going to hurt them at all.

I think you're right. The military aspect of this is a red herring.

I agree. That was my first reaction too. Ping's action has nothing to do with discounts to military personnel.
It has everything to do with discounts that are in conflict with Ping's stated policy.

Oh, they certainly have a right to do it.

That doesn't mean that we can't point out that they're retarded. :p
