And it's all largely wasted. Golf equipment is defined to work within 
certain specs. If you develop something that starts consistently taking a 
stroke off a keen amateurs games - say taking them from 10 over to 9 over, 
then it WILL be banned. It's part of keeping the game consistent over the 
years.

I can think of two examples off the cuff. A new ball with "better" pit 
design gave extra distance. The 'between the legs swing" putter (Sam Sneed?) 
reduced putting scores. Both were banned in 'real' golf.
