[@jimmrockford9407]

In winter conditions i have lost balls in the middle of the fairway. My buddies and i call these kinda' shots the 'tiger woods rule' cause if we were on tour 5,000 people would be pointing at our ball no matter where it lands. Because of this,fairway shots and just off the fairway shots that are obviously visible from the tee are considered a drop shot with no penalty.

Compression of the ball is the problem. They would be adding electronics into the molding of the core. Once you compress it when hitting a shot. You would smash the electronics inside

I was even par playing 9, crushed my drive on dog leg down left side of fairway, never found the ball. Plugged somewhere in the fairway. My league has a loose rule if everyone agrees to where it is u can drop if it should have been found. I dropped roughly where I thought it should be, made “par.” Subconsciously I think I tried to miss the “birdie” because of the lost ball. It sucks it happened, if there was a camera or spotter it would have been found, now I feel ripped on my nice round because of this. It would be great for amateurs for stuff like this.

Great review Rick! 👏 The tech has a ways to go. Tldr: theoretical blahblahblah The range problem has to be addressed first. Theoretically, if the course wanted to spend enough money they could put bluetooth signal extenders into the course spaced ever so perfect to give whole course coverage. They could then tie this into their on-board cart systems or offer a course app. Idk if it is possible to double the extenders to perform some form of triangulation? But that would help accuracy in finding the ball, probably to the foot. The big names would have to re-engineer it to actually perform like a grade A golf ball should though. That sounded awful.

How is that accomplished with this ball? As Rick says, it seems like a good start, and if a larger company could refine it, I might be interested some day.
