Bringing new meaning to the “Flop shot” The Floppy, indoor golf aid
April 16th, 2007 by Fred in Golf Gadgets, Miscellaneous Gadgets, Sport, Wacky GadgetsTypically, it’s not so good to be floppy. You can even ask Mr. Floppy, he’ll tell you.
In this case, it is a good thing, “The Floppy” is a practice golf ball made for indoor use.
That’s right, an indoor golf ball!
They’ve got a patented process for developing and producing these little beauties. Plus, what else are you supposed to do if you live in Santa Barbara? Surf, hang out in I.V., and make indoor golf balls, ahh that’s the life.
The good thing is it plays (rises and falls) like a regular ball, not like a weird physics defying whiffle ball (which are really only good for baseball/whiffle ball.
They say that it won’t break windows or mar walls. You’re only supposed to use it with short irons though (think pitching wedge people). So if you’ve got a new big bertha you’re dying to try, go to the range, or bang it out the window of your 30th story penthouse office.
Seriously, I don’t mind,, though some others may (those on the streets below, your boss, you’ll now have a new wind noise in your office for the next 10 minutes while you work there until you’re fired, and or pushed out of it).
But yeah, indoor golf balls, WOW! Plus, a cool company name, Balls Out! (seriously, that’s the name of the company, how cool is that on “No Pants Tuesdays”)
Oh, and they’re actually affordable, $10.00 for a sleeve of 3 and a dozen (12) for$35.00 (both require 3$ shipping).
Thanks Uncrate
I’d like 5 points for forwarding the golf theme please.
