Jack Nicklaus recently commented that the ball is the one common factor for all golfers where distance could be limited.

Why would changing the ball be different then changing the equipment?

I like Jack and he has brought the ball thing up for sometime now every chance he gets. I think he would like to see the ball rolled back. The only problem I have with it, is that only the top 0.01% of all the worlds golfers, of which there are around 35 million, hit the ball too far. Jack also does not want to see two sets of rules for 99.9% of us and for the other 0.01% (pros) so he wants this change to be across the board. Jack has a bit of tunnel vision, looking only from the world class view. Like the groove rule, rolling back the ball could have a huge negative impact on us that make of the 99.9%. Pretty sad that the ruling bodies are looking at everything based only on what happens on tour.
