For the Golfer who has it all now they can have RFID Radio Frequency Identification GPS Global Positioning System Golf Balls? Wow, if that sounds really high-tech, well it is because now you can hit your golf ball and know the exact distance it has traveled and in the future as there are more RFID enabled golf courses you can watch it all in real-time on your PDA wireless device which will keep score, suggest which club to use, interface with surface wind reading and do just about everything but make the shot for you?

It is infinitely fascinating how much high-tech materials and innovations go into the game of golf these days. Much of the super high-tech break thrus find their way into sports equipment of all types. Such as Lance Armstrongs bicycle, the Bob Sled Olympic Teams or even World Cup Sailing. And well that is a good thing as it means that there will indeed be a continuation of such entrepreneurial creations coming to assist in the forward progression of mankind.

In the past it has always been the military which gets the technology first yet in the new computer age we saw that Silicon Valley has constantly leap-frogged its best technologies and surpassed even that of the military in many instances. Today we see the same thing happening in sports and what better way to bring new innovations to market faster. Consider all this in 2006.
