After the officer was removed from his position as a result of the investigation, he filed suit in a Virginia state court against ANSER and its executives.
The case was removed to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, and ANSER and its officers promptly filed a motion for summary judgment asserting immunity as a defense.
The court held that ANSER was entitled to this immunity, because investigations by the Air Force Office of Special Investigations and Inspector General are official actions designed to combat fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement in government, and the scope of the investigation was limited to uncovering such fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement.

I had been playing with a $250 Ping Anser F WRX Model (the Dimarco putter) and when I won this in a tournament, I went to Ping to have it fitted.
After playing with it one round, it was more consistent and more accurate than the Anser F I had in the bag before.
While the older anser models had rounded lines, the G2 are all squared up so when you look down on them, you can really see the line of the putter and where the ball will go.

In my opinion, custom fitting a putter is a great benefit to any golfer as each body varies with regard to the ideal setup over the ball on the green.
It has been three years since I put the Ping Anser in the bag (mine is the original model with no sight line in the head) and although I still miss my share of putts, I am now making my share as well.
Practice with a Ping is practice well spent as the feedback to your hands will tell you if a putt is pushed or pulled the instant you roll the ball.
