Well this statement is false. "Those little things sticking out of the fuselage below the cockpit called pitot tubes/ probes" are most certainly not engineered or manufactured by anyone from Ping, past or present. They are designed, engineered and manufactured by the company I work for and it is most certainly not Ping.
I won't go into the prosthetic hips but I know they are not all engineered by Ping. Medtronic comes to mind. Also, not sure how that relates to golf clubs in any way.

Sorry about that - I guess I was misinformed. But I was told this by George Swanson a number of years ago who used to run Ping's own casting division and as such was heavily involved with the non golf related products they made. I had a tour of their Dolphin Cast division and saw samples of all these products they made outside of golf. Again, sorry to make this mistake but I was led to believe this by my tour of their facility and the man who gave me the tour who ran the place.
As to whether it is good or not to have former engineers run a company, I am only commenting on that on the basis that an engineer CEO is more prone to emphasizing the company's engineering capability. Not on whether an ex engineer's experience has anything to do with sales and marketing situations or things like that.
