Golf Technology

There is a lot of technology that goes in to the development of many golf products, from the clubs to the golf balls, which have more technological input than any other type of sports ball.

Sometimes you wonder where it might end but there is a lot more exciting development yet to come.

Imagine never having to worry about losing your golf ball again, unless of course it lands in a water hazard. GPS tracking might be the next step to help you find your golf ball no matter where you might hit it. The technology is already there to embed devices into golf balls so they can be tracked via GPS.

There will be the inevitable increase in price but think of all the money that you could save by never losing a ball again. If you consider the number of balls that are recovered on golf courses each week that could add up to a substantial saving across the board.

As these devices become smaller and smaller their applications become more plausible with items such as balls that can be tracked. There would be a market for such a ball, and where there is a demand someone will certainly decide to supply it sooner or later.

With advances in club designs we might all be driving as far as the Pros of today helped by the constant development of balls that are easier to hit and travel further in the process.

There is one thing that will always make golf a continuous challenge that we will never fully master and that is the human factor. We can have all the best golf clubs, balls, shoes and more and still make a mess of the simplest shot.

And that is why so many people all around the world go out week after week and try to master the game.
