“By doing this, you seriously risk losing that element of golf.” Riggs Playing the same shots, courses, and equipment as the pros is one of golf’s biggest draws. Rolling back the ball would be a huge step backwards for that aspect of the game.

@RiggsBarstool The gulf between the pros and joes in golf is measured in light years. Won’t make any difference at all to anyone but the 1% of elite players

@RiggsBarstool Riggs stop lying to the people. We can’t play the same equipment as pro’s. There’s already bifurcation in golf, it’s just a secret to the common guy.

@RiggsBarstool The majority of PGA Tour courses are not accessible to the public to begin with and amateurs are usually not even allowed to play from the pro tees on the ones that do

@RiggsBarstool companies will sell the pro-model ball so playing the “exact same” equipment will still be possible

@RiggsBarstool Hahah y’all trying to act like your playing Pebble Beach from the championship tees “just like the pros”. Augusta had to add 50 yards to 13 because of distance. It will only get worse. 😂😂😂😂

@RiggsBarstool Nice job reading the @TaylorMadeGolf talking points. I wish you would point your following to outlets like @the_fried_egg and @NoLayingUp for a knowledgeable discussion on this topic.

Cameron Young is playing with a golf ball that would allegedly be compliant with the new roll back rules that will come into effect in a few years time. He was asked about it ahead of the PGA Championship and he says every player in the game is sacrificing distance for control, and he put it in play at the Wyndham last year which he won. “I think I put it in play the same reason that everybody else plays the ball that they play. I hit it during a ball test, one of the Titleist facilities probably close to two years ago and didn't know anything about it and just kind of say, hey, what's that one? Because I liked the flight. “Then as things progressed, I was able to test it last year at Wyndham, able to put that in play, and it's been there since. “Obviously there is no conforming list. I wasn't aware that it would have -- I suppose I read something that said it passed that test, but I wasn't aware of that until very recently. “So at no point was that a consideration. It was just really me trying to optimize my golf, and it's the ball that seems to work the best for me.” He then was asked whether he lost distance with it compared to other balls he’s tested: “Not particularly. I don't think any of us are out really here playing the ball that goes the farthest. I think you'd struggle to find a single person that's doing that. We're all sacrificing a certain amount of things that we feel are worth it, control with irons, control with wedges. For me, that's the biggest thing is being able to control spin, and this is the ball that does the best for me.” Finally he can as asked whether this ball goes further than the one he was using: “No, I hit very similar, yeah. It's much more -- the driver is kind of the easiest thing to deal with, I feel like. For me to get it where it needed to be, I had to just add a little bit of spin, and it kind of comes out at a perfectly playable range. “For me, the biggest thing, like I said, is the irons. This ball is easier to control with the irons. It doesn't spin as much, and it just allows me to be better with my distance control just because it's more consistent.” The golf ball rollback has been a hugely controversial subject but Cameron Young is currently using one that’s compliant and he is playing the best golf of his career. This gives the best idea yet on what impact, or lack of it, the new rules will actually have on the sport. PGA Championship
