I ride my bike near a golf course and have 2 1/2 Home Depot buckets full of found golf balls, after handing out a lot to friends. I have taken large batches to a course near Ft Worth that accepts them as donations to the First Tee Foundation

A bucket of golf balls would be an effective way to deter tailgaters on the highway.

Reminder that SOOPOO always finds WAY MORE golf balls than he loses.



How do you find so many balls? With my ball always being in the middle of the fairway, I rarely find any lost balls. lol

So much depends on wind. If no wind I’m wearing shorts at 50. Windy and 47 reminds me of Buffalo. It’s perfectly sunny now but only 35. So I’ll be wearing long pants. It’ll be low 50’s when I’m done so perfect hot tub weather.

The ‘Championship’ courses raised their prices here. It’ll be around $80 today. I’ve noticed they are getting less play as a result. Sort of good for me as it’s now much easier to get a tee time than same time last year. The price in and of itself is reasonable, but they have the disadvantage of competing with the ‘Executive’ courses which are essentially free if you live in The Villages.
