When a Nice Ball Shows up in the Range Basket

During a lesson a few weeks back some yahoo managed to hit a ball that ricocheted off a little sign, bounced backwards, and ended up hitting my truck, parked in the little lot behind us, Everybody looked at my truck then looked at the yahoo. When he and his friend finished and walked back to their parked cars I intercepted them to honestly ask how he managed to get the ball to go that way. He denied any involvement. I noticed everyone had stopped to watch the conversation. Haha. I stole that ball. Still in my center console cup holder. But it's just a rock range ball..,

haha, that seems to be the Modus Operandi these days..."deny and re-direct".

If Tin Cup can sneak a few in the bag, I don't see what the big deal is...

Yeah, it was funny. It hit the undercarriage so no harm - but it was really loud. And, when I saw that everybody was watching us in the parking lot I think they were curious to see if I was going to get into a fight or something - that was funny. I was very calm, even smiling about it. Haha...whatever. The offending rock ball now rides around town in my truck...

Didn't they do a study showing that range balls can fly both shorter or longer than premium new balls, depending on the properties of the unique ball itself?

Only when I hit them... but that has nothing to do with the properties of range or premium balls. 

All I know is that the ProV(isional)1's found in the woods at my course make great practice balls at home.
