I talked to my buddy who plays on one of the tours and he we were talking about how the USGA has been talking about "rolling back" golf ball technology.
The PGA sent a letter to all players about the statistical data they have studied since 2002 on the PGA Tour, since 2008 on Canadian and Latino Tour, and since 2011 on senior tour. Now there are some anomalies from certain years to the next but I was surprised at the results on the average yardage increase for drives starting from 2002 until 2018.
Anyone want to guess the average yardage increase from 2002 to 2018?
