Bubba! "I think the golf industry is going the wrong way....No one else is changing their game so much with technology."

I always enjoy Farrell Evans' Q&A's at golf.com but when I get to add a modern day player to The List, why it's a special day. And when it's the most American of American's expressing such un-American, anti-something views, it's just a grand day! Thanks to reader Blake for making my day.

You go Bubba Watson...all is forgiven:

As one of the game's biggest hitters, do you believe the distance craze is good for the game?

I don't think we should be lengthening courses. I'm the long hitter so it doesn't bother me. It's to my advantage. But I think the golf industry is going the wrong way. We're the only ones changing our sport. No one else is changing their game so much with technology. Basketball isn't going to 12-foot rims because the guys can jump higher. Golf is supposed to be providing a great atmosphere for the amateurs and the weekend golfers. We should want to grow the game for the people. Why would anyone want to play an 8,000-yard golf course?

Just the governing bodies who view course lengthening as a more viable solution.
