Time for a Change

As the podcast returns back to its roots of talking about the major issues and topics within the game of golf for the fan that wants to break into the sport, where better to start than by discussing the hugely controversial proposal of rolling back the golf ball. This week golf's governing bodies the R&A and the USGA announced a proposed change that the golf ball will fly a shorter distance for elite tour pros in the biggest tournaments. I discuss what this means for the game of golf both at the pro and amateur level, the support for it, the opposition to it, and my overall thoughts and opinions. This will no doubt be one of the most polarising issues in golf for years to come, and the stakes couldn't be higher!
