Quiz: The Ball


PlaidJacket

Recommended Posts

I just took a little quiz from a USGA email. There were 5 questions. I'll give you one of them.

 

What is the Maximum diameter of a conforming golf Ball?

 

A) 1.62 inches

B. 1.68 inches

C) 1.75 inches

D) There is no maximum diameter.

 

If you answer correctly Barbajo is inviting you and three of your buddies to come play golf and stay at his house this weekend.

The correct answer is D.

 

There is no MAX diameter for a Golf Ball.. There is a limit as to how small a ball can be, and how much it can weight. No smaller that 1.68 inches and no heaver than 1.62 oz? maybe??

MmmmmBuddy you are correct. However, anything larger that the diameter of the hole and the ball won't fit inside it. So technically 4-1/2" would be the max. Or maybe just slightly under that. The ball has to fit completely into the hole.

 

Send John (Barbajo) and message and get your weekend setup.
