Depending on how far into the future you what to consider; how about a strap-on device your club shaft locks onto with a GPS guided ball. You can play this wonderful game without the frustrations of this wonderful game. Get a hole-in-one on every hole, greatly speeding up this wonderful game for those who think it's a sprint. You can play with hands free for guzzling beer and your mind free to think of more important pursuits, like when is the cart girl going to have a wardrobe malfunction.

Didn't Rodney Dangerfield have one of those in Caddyshack?

This is from someone with a degree in English? Really?
Our education system IS failing.

Who are "we"? If "we" are touring pro's, or the sliver of the golf population who are pushing the 300yd drive average - then perhaps there is an issue. It certainly *is* an issue for the pro tour.
If "we" are the vast majority of golfers who hit a driver 250yd (and tell people it's 285) or less - then there isn't a huge crisis as long as their are multiple sets of tees.
Seems that I have read many times that while the pro's have seen dramatic distance gains, this has not really translated into huge gains at the recreational level.

I was just about to add a post about that but you beat me to it.
Both of you guys are wrong as there are not too many commas nor are they in the wrong place but it is a silly construct of words resembling a sentence but with no real structure or obvious method of following the thought if one was there originally involved he should have been more clear as to what he intended and should have done a better job of expressing himself.

Hi Rick!
You're right. He used the commas correctly - technically speaking. He just used to many of them; They disrupted the sentences flow. The structure was bad and he didn't follow his thoughts through.
That's all I need, shorter balls. I know these are supposed to be> for the pros, but just wait and see...
It doesn't matter. With shorter balls, they change the slope and rating or change par - its the same thing as getting a longer course. My balls won't be as far OB!
