RE: Can evolutions in sport be stopped? Golf is trying to do so!

I think that almost makes sense. I don't think they should really change anything. If anything make the players have to use more finesse on their swing. Actually, this is what I would do. Make anything beyond the green out of bounds automatically. If they go too far it is a stroke penalty.

Do find it hard to say it this is a good move or not. I can understand the reasoning behind it.
Don't think that everything behind the green should be out of bounds, the problem is that they do reach the green too fast. A par these days sometimes looks like drive, chip and put. While it should be drive, approach and then chip/put.
Maybe they need to start making special balls they have to use. Like coed softball leagues they use a special ball that doesn't fly as far. It's mostly for safety to cut down on the velocity. PGA could start imposing really strict rules like Formula 1 has for every aspect of the equipment.
This is what they are trying to do now. By increasing the parameters of the test, the balls have the changed to that they will have less distance. This ruling will only be for the PGA tour and derivates.
Yeah, that makes sense. Normal people will still be able to crush it on their Monday night leagues!
Bwa, the further I hit, the more slice I have, the tougher it is to find the ball in the woods again :)
Which way is slice? My ball tends to go to the right. Like right off the tee a lot of times. I don't play enough, to know all the terms.
Right side indeed. If it goes right right of the tee, it isn't a slice more like a shank.
The slice only takes effect when the speed of the ball decrease and the spinning of the ball will have more effect.
This is why I just stick to Disc Golf!
