no it doesn't.....it can't basically....coz the molecular forces effects only in the molecular level and for large objects (greater than 10^-5 m) these effects get cancelled out from all the sides....so no the Brownian motion does not effect a "golf ball"

If by "burn of the cart path" you're talking about a grassy hill that either frames the cart path or that the path is on top of, nothing. Play it as it lies, or take the consequences of declaring an unplayable lie . If your stance or swing is impacted by the paved surface of the cart path, then it's the nearest point of relief not closer to the hole.
What happened to Kaluakoi golf course in Molokai?
When the company that owns the Molokai Lodge closed the boutique hotel about a year ago after a heated dispute over more development on the Friendly Isle, many local residents thought it was just too nice a place to keep boarded up for very long.
They were wrong.
The company, Molokai Properties Inc., or Molokai Ranch, has also kept shuttered its Kaupoa Beach Village and the Kaluakoi Hotel, as well as its rodeo arena, movie theater, restaurants, Kaluakoi golf course, gift shop and gas station.
Still Molokai is a nice place to visit even with out the Ranch.

What is inside the golf ball at Epcot?
Inside the golf ball at Epcot is a ride called "Spaceship Earth." On the very top of the golf ball, however, is something very few people actually know exist. At the top of the ball (inside of course), there are a few conference rooms owned by the German company Siemens. This company is the same one that sponsors the Laser Light Show.
Where is my proof? My dad is in the electrical engineering division of Siemens, and has helped work in Epcot (his company worked with Disney to create "Spaceship Earth").
What type of golf ball and a junior player?
For Juniors, most recommend either pinnacle "Junior" balls, or any type of low dimple women's ball. Any ball with low dimples should help, unless the player is hitting them very well, then you should go up in dimple count.
Why do PGA tourneyments golf carts have no top?
Carts are only allowed on the cart path. If you have several lined up in a row parked to watch a player, their canopys would be a visual barrier to a lot of the foot traffic. So, for the same reason you don't want that guy in front of you in the movie theater wearing a 10 gallon cowboy hat, the carts have no canopys.
Do professional golfers use the English System for measurements world wide?
If you are talking about yards then yes. This is widely used worldwide. Some countries in continental Europe and Asian use meters but the pros would still measure their shots in yards.
It depends on what you like and how much you're willing to spend.
Almost every low to mid grade amateur should be using a surlyn two-piece ball because of durability and cost. "Two-Piece" means it has a solid core covered by a tough outer cover. Surlyn (a DuPont trademark) is the most common material for that tough outer core. The alternatives are
Wound core, which is a small amount of something in the center, surrounded by a long rubber band. Wound balls used to be demanded by better players but now are almost dead.
A balata cover is softer, so it catches the club and spins better, but it's much easier to damage.
There is quite a bit of variability in the hardness of the ball, there's no best answer, just personal preference. They're rated by a "compression" number, which is 90 for most, 100 for harder balls and 80 or sometimes less for softer ones.
I like 90 compression Titleists because of how they sound when I putt. That's not a really good reason, but it's as good as most reasons. I also like Pinnacles because they are cheap Titleists. (They're both made by Acushnet.) Wilson ProStaffs are similar. TopFlites (often known as "RockFlites") and MaxFlis have a reputation for being somewhat harsher, but are often preferred by big hitters. I generally use whatever I found in the woods while looking for the new $3 Titleist that I just hit in there.
When was the MacGregor Reverse Draft Jumbo Driver golf club made?
The original Callaway Big Bertha come out in 1991. This club was their answer to the BB. It came out the year after, in 1992. The club measured 44". and the club head volume was 200cc. 10cc larger then the Big Bertha.
Available in two different lofts: 9 and 11 degree only.
Shaft was made by Aldila and came in two flexes: Regular and Stiff only. Both were low kick points, 3.0 torque and weight was 82grams for the regular flex and 84 grams for the Stiff Flex.
Shaft was Dark green which transitioned into silver as it got nearer the Club head.
There was also a matching 3, 5 and 7 wood in both regular and stiff shaft.
Original cost of the club was $149 with matching Green and White head cover.
The MacGregor Reverse Draft Jumbo was their last Steel head driver and was followed by the VIP Titanium Driver.
I played with a 9 degree Stiff flex in the Indiana Amateur in 1992. 36 holes in one day and only missed one fairway. Probably my best driving day ever. :)
Payne Stewart probably died due to the decompression of the private plane he was in. The plane was on autopilot and several hours after the point where everyone was probably already dead there was a tragic plane crash.
Grounding putter in front of the ball?
Yes, you are allowed to do so. It used to be very common in the early days of the game, and was very common in the 40's 50's 60's and 70's. The problem is though, they used to do it with bullseye type putters, today we have mallet and blade putters which are a lot chunkier so watch you don't hit the ball. But it is legal.
But now, you get a one stroke penalty for doing it.
