This age old question has confused golfers when they find their golf ball off the putting surface for years. I am constantly asked by my amateur playing partners; do I putt, chip or pitch this shot?

As golfers we appreciate the history of our sport as much if not more than other sports. As other sports continually tear down their old stadiums and ball parks for new ones, golf continues play its major championships on the same courses that the greats of the game played on.

As I traveled to Orlando for the 2009 PGA Show, I wondered how this greatest show in golf would change with the tough economic times.
