Augusta National getting longer

[Mathew]

The courses are forever expanding and the only people that are gaining are those that sell clubs but lets look at the problems with this....

The earth is so only big and golf's popularity will go in spurts over centuries and the less land that they consume the more likely courses will cost in upkeep and land value. Courses can not keep growing as technology increases. In the Bobby Jones era most people (including him) hit drives in the range of 230-240 yards. Jack Nicklaus said that his average was 260 yerds in his prime and maybe a just a little more if he killed it

Bring back ye old wooden persimmon clubs - I tell you that without any doubt they feel more satifying at contact than these titanium blocks. Theres not much a manufacturer can do with wood.... I would like to see a big bertha version of persimmon - I don't think so many would go for it.....lol
