My questions are these.
Since consumers are buying it based on some level of that (whether we like it or not), is it misleading? Yes, I definitely think this is misleading, we all know better then to think that we are buying the same equipment that the pros are using, it only takes a few scrolls through this site or some of the other sites dedicated to equipment to understand the difference. But, this is not the case for most, I have been to countless Roger Dunn, or Golfsmith stores and hear the sales guy blowing smoke up peoples you know what to get a sale. The buyer needs to educate themselves, but I think the large companies and these large wholesalers need to be a lot more upfront, Im honestly suprised a class action suit has not been brought against the marketing of golfclubs.
Would you have an issue if a player was saying "Play this driver like me" but was not playing it? No, becasue of what I posted above..
