Portable Golf Club Urinal – Yeah It’s Real

Not that this is science related or anything, but my god…
Yes, it’s real. Here’s the website.
Weird. Damn. I never knew this was such a problem. I wouldn’t do the towl thing though, it’s too obvious. Actually, I’d recomend just going in the clubhouse beforehand and if necessary going back there if you have to again. If you have to do it mid-game and it’s just too urgent well then…. maybe golf isn’t your game? Or you could just wear an adult diaper.
But yeah… this is just disturbing. And what about the women golfers?

…and the problem with having a leak in trees when you’re golfing is?

I wondered that myself. All I can think is that if you’re on a fairly large course it could be like a good two hundred hard walk from the center of the fairway to the woods. Perhaps that’s too far for some.

So it’s for guys who have urinary problems that cause them to need to frequently go to the bathroom when golfing and are not able to get back to the facilities or even a tree in a reasonable amount of time, but who also have enough bladder control that they can get the club out and put their towel out and everything.
The towel thing is asking for trouble if you ask me. It seems like it would be pretty obvious standing at the green peeing into your golf club with a towl hanging like that. It could get you in trouble if the wind blew and you exposed yourself.
Also, does it come with moist naps? I don’t know I’d want to shake hands with a golfing buddy for a good game or have him handle my tees or anything after he’s been potentially dribbling peepee on his hand without washing them.

I’m not a big golfer, but most I know have their clubs in the bag with the club face sticking up and the handle down. In that case I guess you’d want to be sure that the handle screw thread thing is really really tight. I hope it gets washed out after each use too. I don’t think anyone is going to be making big money on this one. It’s just strange.
What’s wrong with an empty Gatoraid bottle anyway?

I wonder how many times the voice-over woman had to start again because of needing to take time to recover from laughing out loud.

Towel, schmowel. If they golfed in a kilt the way the gods of the green intended, it wouldn’t be an issue.

What a brilliant idea! Someone is going to get rich on this! But why just limit it so much? Why only a golf club? This needs to be extended further. I’m thinking hockey sticks, baseball bats, hunting rifles, crossbows, canoe paddles, lacross sticks, tennis rackets!
But why stop at urine either? what about a golf bag with a seperate pocket to take a duce in? This idea is good, but it only covers half the needs. It might take some real R&D though to come up with a tennis racket or a shotgun that you can crap in, but I’m sure we can do it if we throw enough of the economic stimulus money at it!

Sammy Sosa would used a peebat. But he’d claim it was an accident.

The golfers at JREF could buy a few of these, if only you would pay them for TAM 6.

Funny, but the folks at JREF say otherwise. Perhaps you can scan and post a copy of your receipt?

I guess I’ll have to look into it, but if they didn’t get the money order then I’ll rectify that promptly.

Presumably this was one of those critical, pressing financial issues which couldn’t be more tactfully handled in private.

Yes, you would think that Filly Cheese would understand that this type of action does more public relations harm to the James Randi Educational Foundation than it does to this site.

Wowa… wait a second there. This has nothing to do with the James Randi Educational Foundation – this is just some individual whose taken it upon themselves to be immature. I support the foundation wholeheartedly and I paid them what I owed through a money order which I sent via an online money order to mail site. I paid for the money order online with a debit card and it gets sent in the US mail.
So I went and put in my receipt number and the order has not been cashed. I don’t know if it was not recognized as a payment when it arrived or what, but since it’s been a while I put in to have a stop pay on the money order and a refund of the charge, because presumably it either didn’t get there or didn’t get processed and once they credit me back the money I’ll resend the payment and probably do it by an alternate means, possibly I’ll just mail a personal check and I’ll send it priority mail so it will stick out and I’ll leave a note or something.
Filly Cheese does not seem to be writing this crap in any official capacity and I don’t know how he or she even got his or her self involved in this crap. Anyway, Filly Cheese lives in St. Louis anyway, so is obviously not a full time foundation employee. If (s)he says “we” it is implying something like that this person speaks for the foundation, which I very much doubt.
In any case, I’ve added Filly Cheese’s Ip range and reported email address to the list of criteria for comments which are considered probable spam, in order to reduce comments which are clearly not on topic and are just a stupid distraction.
It’s not an airtight system and if Filly Cheese is really set on leaving another off topic comment by using a proxy and different name or something then that’s fine, it’ll just show how little of a life this person has and how important this stupid thing is to them.

I thought as much, which is why I worded my remark carefully to place the blame where it was obviously due.

I notied on the website that the price dropped from $49.95 to $24.95. Guess there’s not a lot of need for this absurdly stupid product.
