Golf Bags � Ball Bags � Keep Your Balls Safe

It's estimated up to a billion golf balls can go missing every year so its important to obtain a ball bag to keep your golf balls intact.

Golfers joke there are three definite things in life � death, taxes and loosing your golf balls. That's why it's imperative that you find a good, strong ball bag to keep all your balls safe and protected. It has been noted that around 120,000 golf balls end up in one of the water hazards at just one golf course � the Stadium Course in America - every year! With such a phenomenal amount going missing, a ball bag is the key to keeping your balls intact.

Balls don't grow on trees

We probably wish they did as it can be quite a costly affair if you lose your golf balls continuously. However, if a golf ball has managed to escape your golf ball bag then the best place to start looking for it is in a tree. Some golf course superintendents in Florida have a theory that there could be up to four dozen golf balls in the average palm tree on a golf course. In California , a cypress tree was chopped down at the Olympic Club and 200 golf balls were found in the poor plant.

Where Do The Golf Balls Go When They Leave Your Ball Bag?

The big question golfers ask themselves is just where all these lost golf balls go? Okay, so we know that trees are the minor culprits, but sometimes it feels like our balls just hop out of our ball bags by themselves, the amount that get lost in a round. The theories behind lost golf balls are the following:

• Golf balls sink in the mud, never to be seen again
• Some golf balls are stolen
• Some golf balls are even eaten � a dog in England had to have an operation after swallowing 28 golf balls!
• A few balls disappear into collector's ball bags

Are Lost Golf Balls Safe To The Environment?

Some environmentalists are worried that missing golf balls are billions of ticking time bombs. What with the myriad of chemicals used to produce modern hi-tech golf balls today, its definitely worth purchasing a golf ball bag to stop any damage being done to the environment. However, if you can't find your balls then thankfully there are entrepreneurs out there who are happy to hunt out missing golf balls, pop them in their ball bags and re-sell the balls on. As well as the small time retrievers, there are professional golf ball retrievers � one Florida group retrieves two million golf balls a year from course lakes in Florida , despite the alligators! So, if you don't fancy the retrieving methods above, purchase a golf ball bag from the Sports HQ website and keep your balls safe!
