The United States Golf Association tests golf balls to
ensure that they conform to the rules of
golf. Balls are tested for weight, diameter, roundness and overall
distance. The overall distance test is
conducted by hitting balls with a driver swung by a mechanical
device nicknamed “Iron Byron” after the
legendary great Byron Nelson, whose swing the machine is said to
emulate. Following are 100 distances
(in yards) achieved by a particular brand of golf ball in the
overall distance test.
