Post here if you've ever used a colored ball during a round of golf

Seriously.

I have one friend who uses an orange ball from time to time, we call it "the ball of shame"

I am curious why any MAN would ever use a colored ball?

(Ladies, you are excused)

why not?

I am partially color blind and can see some neon balls better than white balls. Especially slightly dirty white balls.

WTF, who cares what color the ball is?

I grew up playing in the 80s, back then colored balls were ALL the rage. Hell, there was a brief spell where tour pros were using them in tournaments! No joke.

Also, I was fond of the dual-colored balls that Ping made. I think it was Ping, right? There was like a purple & white one and an orange and green one or something like that. Takes me back.

If Rodney Dangerfield can use an orange ball why can't I?

[Ihatebrandi]

Can anyone find a photo of a PGA pro, past or present, using a colored ball?

I would pay a little money to see that.

(The ping balls were kinda cool, I will admit that)

QFT. When they first came out everyone was using them.

OHHHH! HERE is yet another reason why people think serious amateur golfers are douches.

I play in a yearly red, white and blue tourney where you've gotta use the ball to match the tees you're using for that hole.

I also have a group of friends that uses the "must play" rule for found balls. Any ball in decent condition that is found on the course must be used from the next tee until the end of the round, or until a new ball is found. Last year I played with a pink Precept and this year I've had a yellow Spongebob ball in play as well as a rainbow ball with a gay support organization logo on it.

The first birdie I ever made was a 50-foot chip with a pink Flying Lady.
