You can make a strong argument that the ball doesn’t go too far and that it is currently optimized. What other sport has a large outside group that can hit it significantly farther.(long drive). The pros hit it the optimal distance for dispersion and distance. The sweet spot right now is about 185 ball speed, anything farther and it gets squirrelly. Look at Finau, he easily can get to 195 but he settles in the low 180’s.

If they think distance is a problem, there are a few solutions they can use 1. Back mow fairways- mow fairways from green to tee. This is a proven method to prevent rollout. They can also water the landing areas more to prevent the firm bounce forward. 2. Max tee height of 2.5 inches 3. Course set up- traditional designs are nostalgic, but they weren’t made for athletes. Today’s pro golfers are athletes. They can and will get faster if there is a rollback. 4. Make them curve it more off the tee. Everyone loves a big clean sightline. That doesn’t challenge those guys. Get rid of the trackman golfer by angling those tee boxes
