Golf Danger

BANG! a noise not commanly used when refering to golf until now. New studies show golf is harmful for your ears, Yes the relaxing sport and fun passtime is dangerous. The new types of drivers (a special type of club.) made of titanium are skinier and they create a high deccibal noise that is harmful to ears. A golfer used a King Cobra LD titanium club for several months. Than found after he played his ears hurt he quickily ditched the club and went to a doctor who said he has his hearing damaged by the "sonic boom" made by the club hitting the ball. And this is all happening now in Britian and America. The reason for this is titanium drivers hit the ball farther than steel clubs. This can happen because people want the best so they get it regardless of the side effects. In my oppinion this is bad and this is sad that this can hapen to such a good sport to go bad.
