In this episode, Billy & Drew pick up with the endo of the Guttie era with the introduction of the Wound Rubber Ball from America. John Low provides excellent commentary in 1903 decrying the "new ball" with longer distances that will make the current golf courses obsolete as drives now are going from 170 to 200+ yards. This episode is super relevant to the current USGA research on issues of distance and the ball advances the past 20 years, at the end of the Wound Ball Era.
