Golf balls go further than ever before, which led to manipulation of the man of the pros of some of the best lessons in the world.
The players are stronger and faster, as is technology – and Jake Knapp, whose swing could be the most fluid from the Fred couples, is near the distances list.
Knapp ranks 31st on average, on average 298.9 yards. In 666 driving this season, its golf balls have traveled more than 113 miles.
Knapp used this silver driver, Swing Buttery and a hot putter to join club 59 earlier this year at Cognizant Classic.

However, because it is easier to make the ball further, rather than lengthen the courses, the USGA has decided to start backing the technology in the ball in order to preserve the nature of the game.
He is sure to say that the 31 -year -old is “not really a fan of things back”.
“I think that if we were going to change golf in any way, I think you could do a lot of different things that do not change the in -depth perception of a player and things like that. I have fundamentally played a golf ball that is probably going to distance it since I had to change the most. Remember that it will be as important as they think,” said Knapp in a recent interview.
Knapp doubles this position after collaborating with PXG and Pennzoil to give a brand new driver.

From May 29 to June 25, consumers who buy a complete synthetic package of Pennzoil Platinum in a retail location Advance Auto or online in Carquest, in store or online, can enter to win a Pennzoil PXG driver in limited edition.
“I think that having two companies is both in a way at the upper end of the spectrum in each of their trades. When the opportunity arose, it seemed to be obvious to me, then when I heard, I thought it was something that I really wanted to be part,” Knapp said about the partnership.
If he was given the choice, Knapp prefers to make technology back down, rather than the ball itself.
“I think that if, personally, if there was a way to change it, what I think could make things more difficult or get what it wants, they could simply do more regulations on clubs for professionals or tour events and things like that, where they may be more difficult to strike, they are smaller, not as indulgent,” he said. “There are things like that I think would be better than going back the ball in my opinion.”
However, the Pennzoil PXG driver is not behind a little.

“This is one of the fastest pilots on the market right now. And then, without forgetting, you know, forgiveness is really unparalleled. You have a lot of weight in the back, a nice big face that installs the square, gives you a high ball speed, a low rotation and a strike more fairways.”
