I am looking for a company that will personalize a golf ball to say "(Insert my golf enemy's name here) sucks (expletive deleted)" I want to "lose" one of these balls and have my golf enemy find it. The standard golf ball customizing places will not put obscenities on balls for customers.

I have though about a hand held golf ball monogramer but I want it to look more official than that.

As always all thoughts and comments are welcome.

You might utter the offending words directly to the person you wish to insult, rather than leaving them in the woods on a ball that person may or may not find, thereby allowing him to know just who wishes him ill so that he might respond to your boorish behavour in an appropriate manner.

On the other hand, you might find your time more wisely spent playing golf rather than risk, as a result of poor judgement, having some ball with an offending message placed uncomfortably in an unfortunate cavity located on your person.

You clearly have no respect for a well crafted practical joke. If you knew my golf enemies you would understand that this is not done out of poor judgment, but rather in tasteful spite.

Please if any one has any ideas for how I can pull this off please help.

Titleist do offer this service, but how on earth you can call someone an 'enemy' is beyond me, if you hate them that much man up and sort it out with them, being spiteful is rather sad IMHO.

I am using the term enemy here loosely. We are actually best of friends, but gamble feverishly on the golf course. I want to spite him and play a joke on him. Immature, most likely. But not sad.

I have tried through the Titelist service and they reject the order.

Being best of friends changes everything, I would suggest using Titleist but use offensive and NOT rude terms. If you decide against this just say shank at the top of your friends swing and bobs your uncle

LOL. Thanks. I may just get a ball that literally says "Kyle is an (Expletive Deleted)" That way the will print it and it still carries the same, although not as funny, effect.

Let the post stand.

Write what you want with a Sharpie and stick it the ball pocket of his bag. If I didn't insult my guys, they would have me removed from the club. I know this is a 'gentleman's game' but being a gentleman does not exclude playing with your friends.

    • Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here. 
    • Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.    
    • There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:
    • I've developed a serious case of the shanks and difficult to control push fades/slices with my irons lately. I used to draw my irons pretty consistently. I currently most draw driver. Also, I don't like how my elbow sometimes pops out from down the line, especially with driver and/or if I'm trying to hit it harder. I can control the elbow a lot better with irons, but quite difficult to have good contact and speed while controling it on driver.
