If they just restrict the length of a shaft (no am is going above 46" anyway), possibly restrict the loft of drivers (same driver, less loft), and have a pro ball and an amateur ball (effectively the same but with different dimple patterns to affect the distance) then how would that affect pricing?If bifurcation happens then the gear will cost more. 100% it will
The only fundamentally different item will likely be the ball. I don't see that having a major impact on the prices we pay now.
I'm not saying the above is what will happen by the way. I am reading the info and looking at simple options, that could well never happen.
