It's the second generation of a club that just came out. And I was just bombing it. I couldn't lay off it. I had it go right in the bag. Club technology has been spinning uncontrollably for nearly a decade, since the days when graphite and titanium composites were first introduced.
Balls are the latest game-breakers.
Titleist and Nike make balls that are not only making golf courses obsolete but driving ranges too. A few Heritage volunteers can testify to that. For years, a break tent has stood behind a 60-foot net at the end of the Harbour Town driving range, more than 320 yards from the tee area. On Wednesday, the thud of golf balls hitting the tent's roof interrupted quite a few lunches. Nobody could remember it happening before.
