I don't know if they are or not. I just get tired of all the claims made by manufacturers of golf products. "Save 5 strokes here", "this club is longer", "this ball is longer" "save another 5 strokes here". I just think it would be nice to have a central, non biased organization of experts, who could control all these claims. let "Iron Byron" tell me which club, ball, or combination of club & ball is longest. I realize that these claims prey on those golfers with the lowest resistance to gullibility, which is a major selling factor. "Our (piece of equipment) has been certified longer and more accurate off the tee by the USGA" would sound pretty good as part of a sales pitch.
