Way to go Brian
Brian:
I completely agree with your assessment. I have seen this type of complaing before. In the 60's and 70's, Jimmy Demeret and others were moaning about the lack of skill with Nicklaus and Palmer and how the players of his era had more shots, could work the ball better, had more imagination etc..
This has been going on throughout golf's history. Here is a quote from Golf Illustrated in 1910 -- "If the carrying power of golf ball is to be still further increased all our courses will be irreversibly ruined as a test of the game."
Today the athletes in every sport are bigger, stonger and better coached and this holds true for golf as well.
