Stu1961 Imagine how many more known name winners there would have been if they didn't have to play in Tiger's group on Sunday.

    Weirfan A lot of energy being expended on this topic that doesn't impact us amateurs for another 7 years.

    The impact on amateurs isn't what's being discussed. I hope you make the last 7 years of your life count. 😉

      rsvman2 Right!
      And as a follower always of rules in life, I've made certain to never purchase any balls that I might hit over 317.
      The times I thought I had made the mistake, I deliberately 'checked' my swings on the tee areas.

        Typhoon A local course has them with their logo. Def not the same Exceptions as 18 yrs. ago, but they are still long AF.

            Typhoon When Titleist and TaylorMade have their 'buy 2 get 1 free' deals, we need to load up on them. Save them for 7 years and they will be the illegal balls that everyone will pay $100/doz. for.

            We'll get rich.....but never remember where the balls came from. Or what they are, maybe.🤔

                USGA needs to look into these......can't hit them too far.....if you can't find them.

                  Probably not real, but I thought I'd share it here.
                  If true, hmmm.....
