What did you just type? So mishits are more forgiving now. That means two things. Players in the past had to be more precise with their ball striking and Tiger also benefits from today’s more forgiving equipment. Jeesh.

Jack beat Tiger during Tiger’s prime at the Masters. (1998) I don’t want to hear what Jack couldn’t of done in this era.

Less forgiving equipment puts a bigger premium on ball striking meaning Good ball strikers have a big advantage.

With more forgiving equipment, ball striking is deficiencies are less of an issue. This decreases the advantage great ball strikers have.

It’s not that difficult of a concept.

Jesus Christ, man.

Say, in Maddox's prime, they decided to make the strike zone smaller.

Would you say this would be the demise of Greg Maddox?

Or would he greatly benefit compared to other pitchers because he was a GOD(better than everyone else) at moving a baseball extremely accurately?
