I would put golf in pretty much the same category.

"I would put golf in pretty much the same category."

I've played golf off-and-on for 45 years. The present-day equipment technology (graphite shafts, oversized titanium club heads, etc.) has made golf a very different game, at every level, than it was in the past. Anyone who watches college baseball, with its aluminum bats, knows how very different it is than MLB or even the Cape Cod League.
