Were you not following from the start? If it's a really good club, you can pick it up, but you have to throw one of your old garbagey clubs back in the bush/rough as compensation. In your case you'd probably be best to either leave it there or only carry 13 just in case.

LOL no i didn't trawl through the thread.

What I Play:
Wilson Mini Stand Bag | PING G10, 10.5°, Proforce V2 HL S | PING G5, 15°, 18°, Aldila NV 75 S | PING G5, 19°, Aldila VS Proto By You 80 S

Since, by your logic, the range may have actually stolen the ball or "taken it mistakenly", then perhaps the OP should have taken it upon himself to destroy the Penta, thus removing it from the twilight zone limbo of being passed amongst unscrupulous golfers, and furthermore, freeing the world of it's moral quandary.

This is the funniest thing I have ever read on this forum. *Awesome!*

I sometimes steal good balls out of the range buckets, but I feel uneasy about it so I try to be slick when I do it and I look over my shoulder. I think I do this because there are crazy people in this world as evidenced by a number of post in this thread.

Indeed. You are headed for the Big House, Mapa, where you can look forward to being repeatedly driven into by the big swinger behind you, if you follow me.

LOL...I'm going to have that thought in my head every time I bend over to steal a tee!

haha I am, but now I get how it works. Guy we played with always pockets some range balls and those he finds on the course, so based on what I've learned here, I just helped myself to some out of his bag when he wasn't looking....he shouldn't mind since they weren't really his.

Life it too short to not. We can always agree to disagree and just have a beer and laugh.

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
