A small drop; also, a golf ball made of gutta-percha (a rubber-like material), or a gutter pipe in plumbing.
Diminutive form of 'gutta' (Latin for drop), or short for 'gutta-percha,' a naturally occurring rubber material from Malaysian trees used for early golf balls in the 19th century.
Gutties revolutionized golf—before gutta-percha golf balls were invented, balls were stuffed with feathers and cost a fortune, but 'gutties' were cheap and actually flew better, which is how a Malaysian tree rubber completely democratized the sport!
