Mr. 82 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 About 12-13 years ago I decided to go back and try and collect a golf ball from every golf course I had ever played. And since this dates back to the 1970's I had my work cut out for me. So outside of the courses that either don't sell them, or in some cases, have gone out of business, I have a pretty decent collection of every logo ball from every golf course I have ever played. I also started collecting rare balls that are an assortment of unusual, down to the tournament balls that I have been to, such as the Masters and the Players, etc. I think in these pictures I have over 180 different logo balls total. Does anyone collect these things, and if so, do show off your collection.

Har in the Hat Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Wow. Love your pics. I do as well and of course is minute compared to yours. I have about 5 dozen and only from golf courses I have played. I also collect scorecards and have kept everyone since I started golfing.

PlaidJacket Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Yes... I collect them. However, my collection isn't just about courses I've played. Mine are mostly logo balls that various companies have given away. Most of them too are ones I've found. I don't display any of them anymore because I have so many and they are sort of meaningless. I'm guessing my collection is about 300-500 and one day when we get our First Tee Clubhouse/headquarters setup I'm going to donate them and put them all out on display as golf wall decoration. I also and still collect poker chips from courses I've played and will probably do them same with them eventually. I might have 50 or 75 perhaps. Gswag.... in the bottom photo is that a Rawlings golf ball? I don't recall ever seeing a ball made by them.

Mr. 82 Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 Gswag.... in the bottom photo is that a Rawlings golf ball? I don't recall ever seeing a ball made by them. Yes indeed it is. A buddy I work with used to own a golf shop where he worked on clubs, etc, and he gave it to me. He said he had tons of those balls from 30-40 years ago. Then again, he also has a couple of sets of Ping Eye 2 irons he can't give away as well.

Eseay32 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Not to hijack but I collect the pencils of new courses I play. I've actually slacked off the last few years collecting them though. My rule is I have to play the course UNLESS it's somewhere amazing Pebble, Augusta, etc. (which I don't have any of those) lol Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy <p>Knoxville, TN 8 Hdcp PXG 0811 10.59deg loft Ping G25 3 wood Titleist 2i rescue Ping I irons +1 upright Vokey Sm5 52, 56, OdysseyRed 2Ball Fang with 1.0 super stroke</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pulledabill Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I just started so I need to back track years of playing to catch up. Last winter I found an add on CL for a couple hundred logo balls from the guys dead grandpas collection. Couple hundred logo balls in two racks for $40. I waa really looking for a specific course but the collection did have it. I offered $20 and walked away with about a dozen balls I needed for my collection. Supposedly the grandpa played or attended tournies at all the courses from all over the world. Masters, US Open, British Open. Some quite old.
