Titleist Golf Ball Question for the Staff

There's an old saying... Some lures catch fish. Some lures catch fishermen.

I don't doubt for a minute that every golf ball is microscopically off center. I think common sense would simply suggest that. On the other hand, I don't think it's enough for anyone not playing the major tours to be concerned about. I certainly wouldn't waster time marking my ball with one.

On the other hand, I saw a really cute device the other day called a Tin Cup. (www.tin-cup.com) It's a metal cup perforated with a little design you choose. Your golf ball sits in it and you use a fine point Sharpie marker to draw the pattern on your ball. They have a big variety of patterns.

If I was going to mark something other than my initials on a golf ball, I'd buy that before I'd buy the spinning device.

That was a good tool with the old "wound" golf balls. but with today's solid construction not a big problem.

Remember the old Golf Ball commercial... wherein you put golf balls in a bucket of water (w/ some other solution), the lightest side of the ball will always float on top... THAT DIED QUICKLY!

With today's R&D of golf balls, In my opinion they would have solved that problem already... it was true. Otherwise, golf balls will just continue to get better and better.
