golf balls
Danny D asked:


Working at a golf course I watch players toss golf balls across the tee box or toss up ball tee’s to detemine who get’s the tee box. Just curious the method behind this.

Question about golf and exercise?

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010
golf ball comparison
q T i p bonfire asked:


If you walk eighteen holes, how many more calories would you burn if you pull your bag on a pull cart in comparison to carrying it on your shoulders?

Also, what muscles need to be worked to hit the ball further in golf? Before anyone says anything, I realize that accuracy is very important, and I’m very accurate. However, I’m very very short… my drives only go about 240 yards, and at 150 yards out I have to use a 7 iron. I’ve got no problems making pars because my chipping is plenty good to get up and down. But I do have problems with making birdies, because once a par four gets over 440 yards I can’t reach it. Just like any amateur I do have some problem holes sometimes, and I’ve got no way to balance them out because I can’t make birdies anywhere besides par threes, which are pretty tough for me to get anyway because I have to hit long irons into the greens and can’t be really accurate. I’m only 14 so I know I shouldn’t be expecting to bomb the ball 300 yards yet, but I really would like to add about 20 yards on to all of my clubs by next June, earlier if possible. So, what kind of workouts do I need to do to strengthen the muscles that control this?
I think that the other two of you guys missed the part where I said that I’m only wishing to drive the ball 260?

I can get up and down most of the time, what I can’t do is make birdies, and when I get into trouble (which is less and less often as I keep playing) on some holes I have no way to even out.

When will golf courses be made illegal throughout the world?

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010
golf
metaldog asked:


It’s well established now both that global warming is a very real international crisis akin to the threat of nuclear holocaust in its end result, and the threat is increasing with every day, and every plane taken by every traveller, and every car taken down the road. .. and every golf course that uses water that spreads fertilizer and pesticide around the near countryside, when the land could be returned to native trees for more oxygen for us all, and for birds to in turn help promote growth of more trees elsewhere.

People travel across the world just to see ‘beautiful nature’ and go hiking amongst the trees in New Zealand - more than the number of people who go there to play golf - so for local tourist opportunities in other countries too, it makes sense to plant more trees, and reduce, reuse and recycle old golf courses.

Save the world! Reclaim your local golf course for nature, the birds, the trees, and oxygen for you and your grandchildren to breath, now!

I was diagnosed with a cystic tumor in my pancreas the size of a golf ball, what is the chance it’s not cancer?

Tate asked:


I had an endoscopy done, and the Dr said he hopes it to be benign. What are the odds that I would have a cystic tumor already 2″ in size (just smaller than a golf ball) and it not be cancer?

What’s the difference between laser hunting and golf range finders?

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

Jay asked:


I want to get a laser range finder for my first elk hunt but don’t have much cash. I got a shot at getting a Bushnell X500 golf laser range finder for really cheap but need to know if it will work for getting range on elk/deer/pig for longer shots like even up to 3-400 yds if necessary. Thanks in advance.

Wade asked:


I am about to host a small local tournament and am needing some cheap golf balls. I am looking to buy a few dozen, and prefer AAA used golf balls. I normally use Titleist logo golf balls or Bridgestone golf balls. New or used golf balls, it doesn’t really matter. I am just looking for a bulk of them for a good price.
