Fact...Golf - Hedgehog - 04-25-2011 Golf balls were originally made of wood. Later, they were made from boiled feathers stuffed into stitched leather known as 'featheries'. The modern (and cheaper) golf ball filled with gutta-percha was not developed till 1848. I'm very lucky. If it wasn't for golf I don't know what I'd be doing. If my IQ had been two points lower, I'd have been a plant somewhere. LEE TREVINO
