Re: When will I be able to purchase a ball retriever?

  Losing a new expensive ball in a water hazard really sucks.  

  Why not offer a ball retriever in the pro shop?  

  How about - if you get one, you increase your ball durability by 10x or something.

  I can't see myself wasting my credits for lost balls much longer.  

  I'll probably leave the site if I continue to have to purchase balls at this rate.

  I know.  Just keep it on the fairway, right?  

  It's not that easy when you are faced with a server lag during your swing.   But that is another issue for another thread.

  Or maybe it gives you a 50% chance of getting the ball back?

   

  I hate losing 33 cents on server lag, and winning 28 cents for placing on a weekly tourney.

  Just use the free balls. I have noticed there are some masters who still use them and play really well. Shoot I even shot a -4 68 at St. Andrews last week using the free balls.

  i agree with duff, i mean, i have lost 10 balls in the water or the weeds or the bushes. and i buy the vapor balls that are around 120 credits and im sick of using them if i hit 1 in the water 1 out of 4 rounds.
