Absolutely wrong! for many of us, playing golf, is meant to be fun, as well as trying to score your best. Don’t you enjoy the game a lot more, when you drive from the tee goes 240-250 yards, instead of 190 yards? I know that I do. The industry and the USGA, can set and use, whatever standards they feel are appropriate for Professional Golf, but for the rest of us, that are probably some version of (“a hacker”), pro clubs, should be more, including versions of the “same” clubs, that are easier to hit, and Drivers that are modified in some way that they go further. It should be a separate category, for "non-professional golfers, and should be sanctioned to be totally legal.
These modifications and changes, would actually help the industry in several ways:
- Less people would quit playing golf( because it’s to hard to play),
- By making golf more enjoyable, it could be more attractive to play,
drawing in a larger number of recreational golfers, - Golf sales of both clubs and equipment, would increase exponentially.
