| | Re: Golf Ball Cage Thats a trade secret,Just kidding,you drill out the hole 11/4" and soak it in alcohol about 30 minutes,and put a little pressure on the ball,and it pops in.Iv'e seen people use bobbers also for the fishing enthusiast.

| | Re: Golf Ball Cage Hey Mark, great stuff. I gotta tell ya, Coffee man came to see me about a week after I began to carve (that's 6 or 7 months ago) we made 3 golf ball cages together and I am still waiting for the talent to carve a head on them, it's gonna happen for sure, but just not quite ready yet. Just thought you mite find this interesting.
