Manufacturers have been asked to supply the rules makers with some balls that go
shorter distances, for their consideration.

 Striker opined about:
golf swing of the future

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.

Ah, the future, I can hardly wait.

Cheers Lee O.

Really? When did this happen? Do you have a pointer to an article> about this? I don't see anything on the USGA site about it.

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.

Actually, it really did look like your words and thoughts were rambling
together.

Maybe an extra space or two between thoughts or some line space between
paragraphs.

A preponderance of commas in the wrong places doesn't help the flow.

 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.

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.

Thank you very much

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.

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!
