@MHG10908 @shandrissima You don't think that hitting an object in the lower gravity of the moon and visually judging the difference in speed and distance of the object is not a useful experiment?
I imagine they used a golf club and golf balls because they were small and easy to store away.
When you assume that this experiment had absolutely no scientific merit you are wrong, there is no way they would have set aside the air, time, and other resources to "play" golf on the moon.

"That looked like a slice to me, Al."
Mission control always gives good advice to our astronauts.

@MHG10908 "We paid billions of dollars to send these guys to the moon to play golf."
That's like two minutes out of almost 600 man hours spent by NASA on the Moon - give the guy a break.

@MHG10908 It cost roughly 29 billion USD (maybe around 178 billion by today's value) and the missions returned unparalleled data, including moon samples, still generating knowledge today. They also advanced technological development significantly. Playing golf was symbolic. I'm sure that's why America is in debt and not the 700 billion USD bailout.

Imagine if they were to play golf on the moon in 20 or 30 years from now. I wonder if it would be something like this:
"Okay, watch this!"
*swings*
"Ha! Hole-in-one! Try and beat that."
"No problem, dude."
*swings*
"There! A ball-in-orbit!"
