They will be on the market in time for use in the big tournaments now getting underway. These interesting photographs showing how the modern pure
rubber golf ball is manufactured, were taken at a famous rubber works at Fort Dunlop, Birmingham. They demonstrate the care and technique which goes into the production of every single ball.
