Infographic - The Science Behind Golf

Nothing too groundbreaking.  Just interesting to see how far technology has taken golf.  It would be nice to see how this has resulted in driving distances and accuracy.

What's the original source of this picture? It's too small to see when I click on it in your post.

I had the same problem John.  Try this link.  I'm able to zoom in on that one.

If you ever get a chance, play TPC sawgrass, but also go see the golf hall of fame. It has a really cool history about the technology of golf. A really good section is the artificial green they have, its to mimic the greens that were around in the USA round the turn of the century, early 1900's. The putter's they used back then were wood shafted wood head putters. I tell you, they are the sweetest feeling putters out there. I wonder how well a putter could be made out of wood with modern technology. Maybe like a wood insert. Just curious.
