I was in a Golf Shop today and saw this advertised. It has "woo" written all over it.

HOW Q-LINK WORKS


Beneficial Resonance with your Biofield

In 1994, the National Institutes of Health in the United States adopted a new term - biofield - to describe a growing body of research showing a subtle field that permeates and extends beyond the physical body. The biofield is something you've probably already noticed: a vital force that animates our bodies and powers our daily lives. When our biofield is out of balance, we're out of balance. Disease, fatigue, and apathy all reflect a compromised biofield. When something improves our biofield, such as the Q-Link, it can increase our mental and physical performance, reinforce our natural immunity to stress and enhance our sense of well-being.

Every day, our biofields are negatively impacted by flickering computer monitors, irate bosses, cell phones, emotional stress, tabloid television, and traffic jams - just to name a few. We are literally bombarded with frequencies that wear us down. That's why it is essential to recharge.

Q-Link products tune up your biofield through a resonant effect that harmonizes your energy and helps you to navigate smoothly through a stressful world.

USING YOUR Q-LINK

The Q-Link pendant should hang around your neck at the center of your chest. It is equally effective facing either direction, inside or outside clothing. We have found that you and your Q-Link begin to create a linked energy system over time - a sympathetic resonance effect, to use the technical term. This effect reinforces and enhances specific life-supporting energies in your biofield.


With a Q-Link, the recharging of your biofield is happening whenever you wear it. So it's to your advantage to wear it all the time, even when you sleep. It is especially valuable when you are exposed to strong Electromagnetic Fields (EMF), such as in front of a computer monitor, while on a cell phone, or if you live near high-voltage power lines. The more you wear it, the better the results.

Maintenance on your Q-Link is easy. There are no batteries and no parts that wear out. No hassle and no noise. You can swim with it and shower with it. About the only maintenance required for your Q-Link is to clean it using a damp cloth. The components inside the Q-Link have been engineered to create optimal resonance effects indefinitely.

"While wearing the Q-Link, players were nearly five times more likely to immediately reach an optimal range, and this was demonstrated throughout the body. Q-Link technology is a powerful tool for anyone interested in optimal health and wellness, and will support, promote and benefit peak performance in sports"

-David C. Rupley, Jr., MD

How do they get away with promoting and selling such items?:confused:
 
I will say that, despite my otherwise skeptical nature, the one pursuit in my life that MIGHT drive me to hope for divine intervention is...yes...golf.

Drives me friggin' crazy.

But I still love it.

:D

Golf is very similar to being an audiophile in that the participants usually have a large amount of disposable income and are dealing with a passtime that requires a fanatical attention to detail to detect and correct "problems" that may or may not be present. Hence, they are very susceptible to woo. Check out the absurd designs for irons, woods -- heck, you could do an encyclopedia on putter designs and their supposed advantages.

The one advantage golf has over being and audiophile is that at the end of the round, you have a neatly quantified score that lets you know how well you did. What the score doesn't tell you is whether it was the titanium irons or the Q-Ray bracelet that made you play better. Or maybe it was because you listened to the caddy's advice this time.
