Diving For White Gold

One of the more lucrative locations is the famous 17th hole of the TPC Sawgrass golf course. An estimated 50,000 balls a year are lost there. The hole at Sawgrass is particularly treacherous. Even the best pro players send balls into the drink. Bill Hughes, the course's general managers, says he has seen average players lose a dozen or more balls to the six-foot deep water trap.

The distinction between the different balls is mainly attributable to the coverage of compression or ball. Balata, lithium and Surlyn covers are popular are those that allow injury balls to be played by those who seek to both distance and spin rate.
