Do you have any golf balls that you will never use?

[GaijinGolfer]

When my brother and his wife got married back in '00, they went to Hawaii for their honeymoon.
While they were there, they bought a box of a dozen golf balls, which contains 4 sleeves and each sleeve has a different golf course's logo on the balls.
Ive got Na Pali Country Club, Kauai; Haleakala Country Club, Maui; Leahi Country Club, Oahu and Kilauea Country Club, Big Island.
Granted, they only spent $20 for that box of balls, but to me those balls are very special because of where they are from.
I will never play those balls because if I lost even 1 of them, Id be very upset with myself.
So, do you own any golfballs that you will never play or never play again? Perhaps its ball that you shot a hole-in-one with or something like that.

Box of Pro V1x balls with the logo of my college alma mater, given to me by the head coach of the men's team as a thank you for coming out to the 2008 NCAA Regionals and supporting the team. Signed by 3 of the team members, including an All-American (and another who I am sure will be one in the future.)

No way any of those balls will ever see the course.

Well, maybe one sleeve . . .



Also, single logo balls from various courses I've played and which have special meaning to me.

Have a box of Titleist Balatas from 10 years ago with my Company Logo. And I have the ball that I got a hole in one with 4 years ago.

I have a few, mostly people bring me back a random ball from vacation or something like that. Mom gave me some that had USA logos on them, a coworker brought me back one from hawaii that is covered with logos, a few random logoed golf course balls, and most special is my hole in one ball. Funny thing was I teed off with it on the next hole and my playing partner made me switch it out after the tee shot just in case I lost it, I wasn't even thinking about it but once he said that I figured it was a good idea.

Id say that was a good idea. Just imagine if you had shanked it into the woods or hit it into the water.

Granted, its just a golf ball; but the accomplishment that the ball represents is irreplacable.

I have a couple of Nike one black and Nike one platinum as well as some Titleist Pro V1's and Pro V1X's that I don't use in honor Tiger of Ben Curtis. Also, some with Cleveland/OSU logos, an American Flag ball, a ball for St. Andrews and some others.

Absolutely, good thing I split the next fairway with it

I used to collect logo balls but sort of gave up on that. I have two sleeves of ProV1's from the 06 and 07 PGA Championship. If I was broke and needed golf balls I would use them though.

The ones I wont use are the balls I saved when I won my first few matches in High School. I write the score and course on the ball with a sharpie. Its funny to see that one of the balls was a Top Flite Magna LOL!!!!

If I get any kind of logo ball I keep them. I got a dozen golf balls with Disney Characters on them. I kept one ball of each character and then used the rest of them. My parents have brought balls back from vacation for me. I've got a sleeve of balls with Hula Girls on them. I've also got a ball from both Pebble Beach and Spy Glass Hill from when my parents went to San Francisco on vacation. I think the one ball I have that is my favorite though is the one my sister brought back from her trip to Ireland, Scottland, and England. It is a ball and tee set from St. Andrews Golf Course.

2004 & 2007 sleeve for Red Sox World Series Champions

Soon to have 2008 Celtics sleeve as well!!!

[gsu_paintballer]

Two college logo sleeves (the one I attend and the one I am a HUGE fan of), my first ball from the first time I teed off (going to add my score to it after reading that here), and one my parents picked up as a keepsake for me while they were in Panama a week ago.

Going to try to start collecting different logo balls.

I got a box of Disney golf balls with Mickey, Donald, and Goofy logos that my sister-n-law got for me when she visited Disney World. There is no way I am gonna be caught hitting those. I also have a bunch of signed golf balls from the 2005 LPGA U.S. Women's Open from Cherry Hills...probably won't hit those either for a different reason.

Very cool. Whose signatures did you get?
