Default Re: Carved Golf Ball~

I took mr Greene's golf ball to him last night! He smiled from ear to ear! LOL He said,he will show all of his golfing buddies this Sat,when he goes to play golf. Plus when I was about to leave his house,HEYyyyyyy Hold on! He came back from down his hall with some name brand golf balls... He said,I think you just might need theses. I thanked him and felt good that he liked it. Yea Banjo,this is the first golf ball I have tried,I think it came out ok and later will carve a few more. Im glad you liked it and thanks for your nice comments!

Wow tn,

sounds like you have a good supply and an instant market for golfing carved golf balls,

put one in your pocket and take it to the hardware store and use one of them PVC cutters on it.
heck i bet a sales man could configure a holder so your hands would be safer... maybe some 90 degree PVC joints affixed to a clamp or something.

great end to the carving glad you got to tell it all i was waiting for the other boot to fall..

It took me a few days to walk over to Mr.Greenes,just too hot at nights to walk over there plus he goes to bed early,he goes to work really early in the mornings. Now the other boot can hit the floor Thomp--lol

I will carve maybe a few more golf balls next month or maybe sooner,just depends how much art work I can get ready for some up coming shows in Oct. & Nov. I will try what you said,about the PVC pipe cutters then! I value your information and thank you for them..thks Forrest
