retrieving pond balls in bulk?

[jdub]

I talked to a local shop and they said if I want to skim the water for pond balls and return the range balls I can.

do they make a hand held retriever to skim the water for 4-6 balls at a time?

I just want to get about 80-100 balls which shouldnt take long

I just want a tool/machine that skims the bottom of the floor of the pond

not a single ball getter

I would be doing this for personal use, and to help out the course

not when people are golfing

how big of a pond are we talking here? and do you get anything in return?

check out the "Golf Ball Hog" it reaches up to 18 feet and is built for water hazards.

I get all the non range balls, and it cost me 0 dollars to do

its just something I can do while waiting on a 5 man... as I usually play single and I would say the ponds are usualy 40x40ft

i added to my other post before I saw your last one.

A friend of mine uses an old, weighted bicycle basket on a rope. Just chuck it out there and haul 'em in. You can pretend you're on an episode of "Deadliest Catch".

I have seen a basket looking affair.

Please get one and come down to Gordon Lakes golf course in Augusta, Ga.

We'll head over to our island hole and bring a cooler full of beer. It will probably turn into a party as folks find out about.

Everyone can describe their ball mark in detail ahead of time and we'll hold a contest on who gets the most of theirs back.

Been playing that couse a year and a half.....bet I've lost 6 dozen balls in that surrounding hazard....and then a few on the next hole's tee shot....as I'm normally pissed off when I get there and bust out a big hook trying to kill the ball.

They are holding a Hooters Tour tourney this week....I may head over there and watch that hole....just to see if it bites them, too. It will be playing ~180 yards for them.

I was thinking getting something like this 5 mins here and there should get me about 100 balls a round

Dub...when you find 2 taylormade red tp's with a "T" on it, they're mine.
Thanks

I have a rake that is made to pick up pecans from around trees. Sometimes I bring it along on a smaller couse I play and it works great. Just drag it back and forth near the edge of a pond and I almost always get something.

I get behind alot of slow players lately and this seems kinda entertaining

my uncle resells them to friends and has 10x10 gallon buckets full of balls

I figured he goes on land at the course... why not go on water

I'm sure its fairly common these days, but I often see guys in scuba gear fetching balls from the hazards on my course. (Tustin Ranch Golf Club).

my uncle has the contract but we cannot get the license to get the tank or I would willingly dive for them
