    "Golf ball finders" glasses

    Hey folks,

    Has anyone tried these on course? I bought a pair today at the show (yes, I do loose A LOT of balls), but was wondering if anyone actually found them useful.

    Cheers,
    Krolik.

    I've seen them at a course before. And they do make the ball stick out for sure. Like a white shirt under a blacklight. Like they said though, they are not sun glasses and not to be worn all the time.

    I bought one last year when they first came out and sad to say I did not find a single ball with them on. Also, don't bother wearing them when your'e looking in the woods or near water coz it changes your view and could walk into danger without seeing it(trust me on this one).

    I stopped using it after about a month or so since I was not that convinced that it would work at all.

    Good to know. We never used them. Little misguided then. They showed us balls in the rough near the club house. They worked there but I guess in real situations it must be different.

    Especially on sunny days where there are all kinds of debris on the ground that reflects the sunlight. It would look like a bunch of white stuff on blue surroundings so you end up with a several objects to look and only one of them could be your ball.

    There is a better way to find your ball.... don't loose it People make so much money off golf gadgets its incredible. Buy my tape and you'll loose 12 strokes off your game. Use my vest and you have a perfect swing all the time. give me your money and I'll bend you over because this will improve your game as much as every other product out there.

    my 2 cents
