Message: [QUOTE="jleves, post: 4040528, member: 757"] I totally agree that the PGA has to do some things to deemphasize technology. There's no way to make courses long enough and the old courses are like chip and putts. It wouldn't be hard to make a few changes like shaft length, head size, minimum driver loft to get things back in line. Guys hitting a driver and 6 iron into 600 yard par 5s is kind of ridiculous. When someone has to pull out a 3 wood because a driver is too long for a short par 4, you've lost the intent. At the very least all of the PGA courses need to be 'hardened' so at least you really penalize wayward shots with deep rough, tighter OBs, etc. Birdies and eagles are fun, sure. But every player in the field was under par for the tournament. That's just dumb. [/QUOTE]
