Golf Quote: “A golfer has to train his swing on the practice tee, then trust it on the course.” - Dr. Bob Rotella

Golf Stuff:  Around 1750 the world of golf saw the first club heads made entirely of iron. By 1826 hickory wood became the standard for shafts due to its impressive durability.  By the 1870s factories were able to mass-produce iron clubs. This pushed the blacksmiths out of business as the factories could make them cheaper, faster, and with more consistency. The 20th century saw a lot of experimentation with club design but there were no significant changes besides the introduction of grooves on the clubface. In 1908 it was discovered that adding groves to the club face created more backspin and caused the ball to fly further.
