It makes the water hazards a bit less challenging. Shoot for the lake and plan in getting an extra 40 yards on your drive. (like the parking lot scene in Tin Cup) Yup, as long as it comes off the ice. Sometimes the ball bounces into the far bank and comes back on the ice. The lake at Greendale must have 25 balls on the ice. Free balls. Just get a long pole. Or a buddy and drag a rope across the surface. |

Don't know what they do with them. I've got too many 'free' balls now, and the grandkids don't want anymore. When I find them now, I'll give the guys I'm with first dibs, then they just get left where someone can have them. |

They became range balls for the golf course. My buddy who lives in Reno, next to a golf course picked up balls while walking his lab. Sorted them by make and model. Sold about 5000 of them a few years ago for a few thousand dollars. |

IIRC way back in HS I think I had a friend who dove for used balls in the lakes and sold them somewhere..... |
