I guess when you've recently become the Team Captain of a team called the Crushers, the reaction in to be expectedA tad over the top?
‘DeChambeau, who is among the longest hitters in the game, told the LIV Golf website: "I think it is the most atrocious thing you could do to the game of golf.” ’
There's a course down in Devon, called Caymen golf, Played it a few times when down that way, balls only go 25% of a real golf ball, so the course only takes up small area
Unless you are Patrick ReedThe Cayman ball was originally made for the course on the Cayman Isle (Jack Nicklaus and Co designed and built) and you are only allowed to play that ball there.
I think there was one in Canada too that used its own ball, Volvik I think it was called had one ofvtue balls and it went nowhereThe Cayman ball was originally made for the course on the Cayman Isle (Jack Nicklaus and Co designed and built) and you are only allowed to play that ball there.
Collateral damage maybe. But golf governance is looking at the big picture, not one person.To be fair he’s based his game on equipment now avaliable.
Are they ?Collateral damage maybe. But golf governance is looking at the big picture, not one person.
Are they ?
there only looking at the big hitters I thought.
Without reading all previous posts I apologise if this has been said.
The word being used is 'Bifurcation' where Tour Pros have different rules with respect to playing equipment.
Actually, for anyone that watches pro golf, I'm pretty sure we all know we don't play the same courses as the pros. They are quite a bit better than us. And, I'm glad they don't play the same courses as us with dumbed down equipment. If they did play the same courses, I'd want to see them go round in sub 60. At my last course, there would be 6-7 driveable par 4's and 2 par 5's for them to enjoyI’m all for bifurcation - I think people are deluding themselves if they think they’re playing the same courses with the same set-up as the pros have
Probably golf balls that carry less, maybe lower COR in the faces of metal woods. Higher lofts on irons?Have they announced how they are actually going to do it.
What is the physics behind it?

Maybe they need to roll back the fairways?
Min Woo Lee hit his 2 iron 300 yards on the 18th at the players last week.
And 365 in this clip.
It's all about the ball. Presumably they will take a few dimples off the ball, enlarge them, reduce them etc. In effect, reverse engineer the improvements of recent years.Have they announced how they are actually going to do it.
