Not sure whether to laugh or cry....
My wife (bless her, love her to bits for trying) has just got back from a conference, and as usual came home with lots of upmarket freebies doled out by the various law firms and drug companies that were attending. All top quality stuff, leather laptop bags, corporate branded i-pod and memory sticks etc: Ever thoughtful, she reached in her bag and said 'I only got you these golf balls, they're probably rubbish but you might want to practice with them' and hands over three brand new Pro-V1's with a law firms name on them. She was slightly suprised how pleased I was and I joked it was a shame that she could only get three, to which she said 'well I could have, they had a 2 ft diameter bowl full of them and the girl said to take as many as I wanted but as you only use Srixons....'

haha..... well at least you got 3, it would have been worse if she has said, "well i could have but i knew you didnt use them"
Just ingrain it into her that in future take the bowl!

Even if you use Srixons Tim she should have got as many as possible. Has she never heard of E-Bay? And you have golfing friends too who use (lose) Titleist balls anyway, haven't you mate, pal, buddy........

I've a story like that to tell.
About 10years ago (before I even thought about hitting a golf ball!!) my missus was a child minder & got a job at the Belfry to look after the pro's kids (as it happended she looked after Monty's!). As she didn't drive I had an all access pass to get into all the days, practice thru to day 4 & even VIP parking
As I didn't have an interest in golf then I simply drove up to the entrance & dropped her off & went home........I always think now "if only"
