What's this?

The 'Arnold Palmer Pro Shot Golf' was pretty enjoyable in the '60s.


There was a driver, 3-wood, three different irons and a putter. The balls were styrofoam for the full shots and marbles for putting on the green. The styrofoam balls became more compressed and smaller the more you hit them. They would then go further and you could actually hit intentional draws and fades with them. The linked video(s) demonstrate it and give more information.
