Golfers at Risk of Going Deaf?
Golf is not considered a dangerous game. If anything, it is the sport over-protective mothers make their children play so they never get hurt. Those moms may want to re-think that strategy after they read this...
Experts are warning that thin-faced titanium drivers, those popular behemoths that give you an extra 1000 yards off the tee, may actually make the user go deaf. The drivers are so powerful that they actually create a mini sonic boom when they make contact with the poor, defenseless, little white ball. One 55 year-old man is believed to have damaged his hearing after using one of the clubs frequently over an 18-month span.
Earplugs are suggested for repeat users, but don't forget to take the plugs out after your tee shot -- you don't want to miss that "fore!" call from the group behind you!
Swing safely, world. [From: DailyMail]

Guess there is danger in everything if you look for it. We should also wear a helmet and pads for the wayward ball from other golfers ;)
