If you are like most of the rest of us, then you've thought at some point of another about what's inside a golf ball. There was a time when it was an easy question to answer, for golf ball construction was relatively simple..
With the first recognizable form of the game of golf being played in Scotland in the early 1400's, the common golf ball has had nearly 600 years to evolve. Golf ball construction has been through many upgrades and enhancements throughout the history of the game.
In 1618 a new type of golf ball was created by handcrafting a cowhide sphere stuffed with goose feathers. The 'Featherie' golf balls were manufactured while the leather and feathers were wet.

The time-consuming processes involved in creating a Feathery golf ball ensured that the price was out of reach of the masses. Though expensive, this type of ball had great flight characteristics and made the wooden ball virtually obsolete.buy golf clubs For over three centuries the Featherie was the standard, only to be replaced with the advent of the Gutta Percha ball.
