Default Golf Balls
Thought I would change things up a little and carve a few golf balls. I enjoyed carving them, however I don't feel as comfortable holding them to carve as I do holding wood. If anyone has any holding suggestions I would appreciate hearing it. Thanks for looking, any comments are appreciated.

Eric, those are really good. My wife bought me a dozen golf balls a while back, I have yet to try and open em up. I have a Dremel just not sure what type of cutter to get for it to open em up.
