So, I spent the last few days watching the Masters Tournament…and cleaning my balls.
Wait…that sounds SO wrong ;-)
I Googled “how to clean your golf balls”…and the results were…amusing.
From regular soap and water…to denture tablets, to using the washing machine ( and softening your jeans at the same time), to bleach, to WD-40..the suggestions were numerous.
The most out there was…using a cement mixer.
Sound kind of counter-intuitive.
But then again, golfers are obsessed..with their balls.
Not having a concrete mixer readily available, I settled for the soap-in-the -sink solution.
My kid came home from work, and he just cracked up…there I was, the Master’s golf on, no sound…tunes cranked to high heaven…singing away…and washing balls.
I had my golf bag in the kitchen..transferring everything from my travel bag into my club bag…and he says…I shit you not…”Ah.. you’re in your happy zen place I see..”
He smiled, and said, “You don’t even have to be on the course to be in your happy zen place..why…washing balls is enough for you!”
