Mark, excellent detail, the mustache looks so real.

Is there a post or website that explains how the golf ball cage is made?

Jim, if you look at the attached search results, you will see quite a few threads on golf ball cages. I'm not sure if there's much detail on how to do it, but there's plenty of discussion.

Oh - nice job on the elf and golfer Mark.......I believe it looks a bit better than the one that I saw last week (Clemson for those 'outside' of the joke).
