Hey Mr xenophobe I found some American alternative for you.

"Their price: $39.99" Nice Rockbottom.

Either way, the American shipped alternative (still made in Germany, home of the NAZIS!) is no less expensive. Actually, its more expensive: $43 shipped for one dozen.

Not that I'm a super cheapo (just a moderate one). Still, I can get pro v1s from Golf Galaxy right now for $39.99. But I'll still stick with my e6s.

[falafel]

whatever you do don't buy refinished pro v1s from rock bottom. they are not good.

I tried refinished once. It was a bad idea.

I am definitely going to try the kirkland balls if I can get my hands on some. They sell out in minutes. 15 bucks a dozen for a 4 piece ball that is damn near a pro v1 sounds amazing. I hope they are as good as advertised.

Art, this is for you. No need to buy those german balls. Free shipping and free personalization too, for $39.99.

I have 5 dozen brand new Vice Pros, 2 dozen Snells, 5+ gallons of assorted balls and about 3 1/2 gallons of Pro V1s (all found in the last couple months)

I didn't realize you lived on a golf course.

Send me the chrome softs and the e6s. I know you're not going to use them. [emoji120]

Just hit it with one hand, then people know you weren't really trying because it was good already. A guy I play with does this all the time, drives me crazy. Also it could be the middle of August and he's bumping his ball around like it's winter rules.

We had a guy in our group who would do that. Walk up one hand it. If it went in he counted it if it didn't he would mark where it was. When I took over the group I put a stop to that kind of crap. I made sure this guy was in my group the first few times and when he would pull that I would write down a triple for him. Heated discussions, but eventually he got the message.

yeah but are they water balls though

i don't. I just play a lot of early morning rounds when the course is relatively empty this time of year.

True. I only take the ones in mint condition. My boys use the rest of them throughout the year. My 13YO likes the colored ones. Thus the empty bucket. He likes to return them to the wild.

I notice you didn't respond to the other part of my comment.

I see a Taylomrade in there. I'll bet those are just garbage balls on the bottom and Art put a few Pro V1s on top to make it look good.

[old_gregg]

so are we just going to let art's slippers slide or what

[Pelado]

Slippers? I thought those were his feet.

[falafel]

Slippers? I thought those were his feet.

Cloven feet... Oh shit.

[HuskyFreeNorthwest]

yep, especially a ball you know was well hit

I don't remember what that feels like.
