In their joint efforts to study the issue of driving distance and its effect on the game, the USGA and R&A announced this morning the launch of a website that will solicit opinions on distance’s role in the game from all golfers and stakeholders.
The idea, somewhat similar to a 2011 proposal from Ping’s chairman John A. Solheim, would be to tailor golf balls to golfers or courses so golfers with different distance capabilities could play together from the same tees or compete on certain courses that would play more true to their original heritage for today’s longer hitters.
