In golf, technology sparks as many questions as it answers. Is the ball going too far? Is it cheating to zap your yardage electronically? How fast is too fast for putting surfaces? We poked around to find out what the scientists and R&D guys are up to next. Of course, we found new questions:
• Is the modern driver straighter than a 3-wood?
• Why do the pro tours need to test for steroids?
• Will computers be our teachers of the future?
• Is golf today more fun or just more complicated?
We can't answer all these questions for you. But here you can read up and join the conversation.
