Golf Bertha

Do you think modern golf equipment is ruining the game?
Look at most other sports – the equipment is pretty much the same over the years. Soccer, baseball, football, etc. Only minor improvements in equipment.
In golf, you have total duffers hitting 300 yard drives with Big Bertha. It makes older, shorter courses much easier. Newer, longer courses use more land because of this.
I think there should be a standard set of clubs and balls and the only change is sizing for your height, stance, etc.
Amen. I have been saying this for 25 years. I’m a golf instructor and I say there should be one professional tournament a year played with clubs from the 70′s and earlier. The golfers of the past were far more talented than today’s because they had to do more with inferior equpment. Where this is ruining the game is that courses are becoming longer and longer because of the equipment and the average person who wants to take up golf figures if he or she CAN’T hit the ball 300 yds. why would they want to play the game. The people who make out like bandits are the club sellers who will talk any unsuspecting shmuck into an 1100.00 set of Golf Clubs, and that person is naive enough to believe that without those clubs he can’t possibly play the game. They’re preying on beginners and killing the game in the same way.
