Of course there's an Instagram account that cuts balls in half to show you the cross section

Maybe it's a stealth promotional for Milwaukee Tools, anyway, enjoy. No Kirkland? LAME!

Golf balls, schmalf balls.  What tool is that and where the hell can I get one?!

They had a youtube channel that did this at some point.

The tool is a M1 Plastic Pipe Shear.

There is a Kirkland Ball cut in there.

I used to get the question several times each month "how do I cut a golf ball in half?"  I always suggested not attempting it, because if you guys knew some of the ways people try to do it, you'd cringe!  They try to use bandsaws, circular saws, hatchets, pocket knives, drills...whatever they happen to have, and it's just a recipe for disaster and losing fingers. 

The method used in the video @nevets88 posted is actually a good way to do it, if you're thinking about it.  This is a quick vid of me using a manual pipe cutter to cut one in half:
