We had a discussion regarding the new driver length rule regarding whether or not it was mandatory at all levels. So I looked it up.
Per the article linked below, it is an optional local rule that the major tours will almost certainly utilize, but it will not impact club players. The maximum driver length is being reduced from 48 to 46 inches. It will go into effect on Jan 1.
Using a shorter driver worked out well for Victor Hovland at Mayakoba, so maybe there is still room for accuracy in the game.
