the reason range balls are filled with "chopped up rubber bands" is because its super cheap and still gives the density while not giving much mass but its flight and roll performance is greatly decreased because of this.
WOW STEVE, WHAT A GREAT PROJECT! I MADE MY WIFES UNCLE ONE OF THOSE, AND MADE HIS WIFE A BAND SAW BOX OUT OF A LOG. HUGE SUCCESSES. UNLESS OF COURSE YOU HAVE SOME KINDA COPYRIGHT, IN WHICH CASE I LIED, I DIDNT MAKE ANYTHING I SAW ON YOUR CHANNELS. LOL. THANKS FOR THE IDEA MAN, PLEASE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK. GREG
Some of the nicer new golf balls have a blue liquid in them so be careful or you will have a big mess on your hands. I found this out the hard way when I was drilling holes in them for a different project. Range balls will most likely have the solid center. The band saw is too dangerous to use to cut the golf ball because it can roll while cutting. The best thing to use is a PVC pipe cutter to just slice through it (sounds strange but it works). Great project.
Thank you for this video. I had to sign up for youtube just to leave a comment. I've been watching your videos for a while, and I really want to get into woodworking when i have some more capital. I guess living vicariously through you is enough for now!
I can't believe how many good ideas you have come up with. Your crazy intros and comments during the video are great as well. Beer has not taken out too many brain cells yet! - - TEXAS
a zen garden features sand...golf features sand traps....woodworking features sand paper..maybe you should have made a little hammer or hand plane and left it on the golf course. Good project Steve. Man those bessy clamps are in rough shape. How old are they.

@ironlionkalo Nah, I was just going to make a zen garden. For some reason I thought about golf and how the sand traps always have a rake in them. Eureka!
Well BALLS TO YOU!!!!!!!

I think that mostly older golfballs had the rubberband-type stuff inside.

Do you imagine that Buddhists in Switzerland have Swiss Chi? I think it would be essential to have for any sand wedge.
So I learned something today. I didn't know that golf balls had stopped being rubber band wrapped cores and had gone to a solid core.

Lucky you didn't find a liquid center golf ball. I thought of making a trap in my back yard, but the cats may find too hard to resist. :)
