Pretty patterns could stop golfers carving divots out of golf courses,
according to British inventor Julian Morley. By printing multicoloured
symmetrical or concentric patterns on the surface of a golf ball, the ball’s
shape and distance from the eyes are accentuated, Morley says. The golfer gets
more 3D cues and greater depth perception than are apparent with an unpainted
ball—making it easier to judge precisely where it is, and easier to hit
accurately. Martin Farrally, director of the World Scientific Congress of Golf
Trust in St Andrews, Scotland, believes the design would be perfectly legal in
competition.
