USGA 限制木桿長度必須在46“以內/USGA rules the golf club length limitation！

USGA 規定木桿長度必須在46“以內！

這週USGA正式發佈新的球桿長度的規定從2022年1月1日開始生效。原本木桿長度是48”，現在改為46“。這個規定讓米克森覺得很不爽。因為他用47.5”的木桿長度。對於一些球員來說，這樣的規定自然會影響到他們擊球的距離和表現。不過多數的PGA選手的木桿長度都在45.5“或以內。其實影響不大。

但對於這個規定，一些球員覺得實在沒有必要限制的這麼短。因為如果打不直或無法控制球的話，48”的長度其實沒有其優勢。而這樣做的目的也只是讓人覺得是有針對性。不會用超過46”的人就是不會去用47“或48”的長度。對於長度超過46“的球員，這樣的限制也影響他們過去努力去克服46”以上的木桿使用難度。

在高爾夫的世界裡，是非常個人化，你可以用的和我可以用的絕對會有差異。所以高爾夫的規定是以讓下場競爭時，大家可以在一個比較公平的條件和環境下去做競技。而對於長度來說，尤其一般球友，要克服先天能力的不足和身體狀態的提升都是一個不可能任務。更不用說，在球具上的難度。一般人要用超過46“的木桿都是不可能克服的難度。

我自己以前也裝一支46”的木桿用，但擊球精準度和穩定性就不好。現在那支木桿都還在，我不覺得長度的提升對於距離有什麼大耀進。如果我們無法把球送上球道或不出界，那就算這桿子可以增加10～20碼，也是沒用。更重要，在物理特性上，去運用超過46“或以上的木桿對於身體和手臂的負擔是比想像的要高。

就算你輕量化，長度的現實還是在。在揮桿的過程，這個物理特性是不會改變。你的身體去駕馭的難度是極高。但對於選手，他們的身材本來就高大，且有鍛鍊。對於使用的難度會相對高。只是在比賽的壓力下能否運用自如，就是看個人的努力和技術了。所以這個規定基本是對選手影響比較大。我們還是練好球不歪比較務實吧！

The USGA and R&A official announce the new rule of the golf club length. The golf club's length is up to 46" excluded the putter and begins Jan 1 2022. That makes some tour players unhappy such as Phil Mickelson since his driver is 47.5" and Kyle Berkshire has 48" driver. But for most of the tour players there is no change at all.

I think it's the impact for tour players since they are good on skills, body and equipments. They can handle the longer driver without difficulty but the only thing they need to consider is the consistency and accuracy of on the fairway? The majority of the tour players are using the driver length within 45.50", the longer driver length, the harder they can control and handle.

In terms of golf, it's very personalization particularly the golf clubs. the USGA and R&A are trying to create the fair base for all golfers and tour players to compete for the game. However, the length of the golf club is always the key for golfers to handle. For average golfers, they are not like pros who are able to train the body and build the right swing.

The longer driver means harder to play for golfers. I do have a driver with 46" with light weight for easy to swing and handle, but practically it's not my expectation for making longer distance. Of course, I can make the shot but the problem is the percentage to make the ball on the fairway? If I gain 10 to 15 yards for the distance but I lose the accuracy. I would rather stay with the shorter driver length.

Even you can make your driver lighter, the physical club loading is still there for your body. If you do not train and work out for better muscles, you are unable to handle the driver to make it on the fairway. That's the fact! In reality, most golfers can't handle the driver within 46" length and it won't impact golfer's game at all!
