GolfHandicapAssociation.com (GHA) made changes to the rules of
golf that haven't been seen in over a century. These changes are in
response to golfers that have grown frustrated with the enjoyment,
speed, lack of access to information/advice that only tour players
with caddies can get and the stagnation of technology improvements
for over a decade now.
RALEIGH,
N.C., Dec. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- GHA's
new rules of golf changes are sure to either be loved or hated by
golfers and tournament organizations worldwide. These are not your
normal small incremental changes. These changes fundamentally
change the way the game is played in many aspects.
From increasing the maximum number of clubs golfers can carry
from 14 to 18 clubs, eliminating 2 stroke out of bounds, free drop
for balls in divots in the fairway, lift rake and place in bunkers,
3 putts max, no limit on driver COR, MOI, increasing max driver
cc's from 460 to 600cc's, free relief from roots and rocks, no
groove restrictions, allowing alignment sticks, green slope
measuring devices, elevation, and information processing devices
and making golf carts legal for tournament play, these changes are
sure to turn heads.
Even tour players like Casey
Martin (Denied Use Of Golf Cart) and Phil Mickelson (Slams Golf Club Restrictions –
'This is Pathetic') have recently vocalized their frustration with
the way tournament organizations are limiting technology and
refusing to relax ancient rules. The GHA apparently heard them
along with the 60 million other golfers worldwide who have had to
abide by tournament rules put in place to test the top .01% of
golfers.
But this isn't the first time the GHA has taken the game of golf
a huge leap forward. They've also been offering free handicaps
since 2009 and they were the first to offer instant handicap
revisions, while the rest of the industry made their players pay
$40-$100+ per year and wait on
recurring 2 week schedules to get updates to their handicaps!
