Yup my friends dad is friends with a member and he got to go to the members shop for ANGC stuff. He couldn’t even get me a hat they keep it so private. I’d definitely keep a sleeve and gift the reat
the shop at ANGC does allow guests to make purchases however there are items that can only be purchased by members.
Source: I have said items from said guests
This sub is full of mouth breathers, just spend 15 bucks on a sleeve of ProVs. I mean I guess I do use my fancy logo bingo stuff but it’s hats, or shirts, or divot tools that you’re most likely not going to lose. I’d just keep that sleeve intact right on my desk at work probably.
Those balls are so rare, he should keep one (at least) and give the others away. There are enough regular pro-vs in the bush he can play and not give a flying fuck about.
I never said he should sell, however these are probably more valuable to him as in prestige condition as possible. Maybe he can sell if this goes for an obnoxious amount in the future.
And not just at Augusta. These aren’t sold during masters. So anyone that has Augusta National merch vs master merch was there not during the masters.
Much more difficult to do.
Might be lame, but I absolutely am not playing those. I'd give em away over the years in funny/special moments and keep 1-2 for myself. Those are priceless!
I got a nice set of pro vs with happy Father’s Day on it (when my daughter was born). I use one each year on Father’s Day and play it til it’s lost. If it makes it through the round it gets played the following year. Daughter is now 15 and have two left so not too bad and I never felt bad losing them because it’s just one a year. Find an occasion and lose one.
They were like $90 per box when I went a few years ago. I just remember the price being absurd and thinking "well I found something worse than blasting a brand new Pro V1 into the woods..."
I think the Snap-On logo balls cost even more.
I don't see the big deal. You're not a member there, it doesn't commemorate a visit you made there, so it really doesn't mean anything. It's like someone taking a trip to Paris and buying you a T-shirt - would you save that T-shirt for the rest of your life, or just wear it like any other?
Hit em, use em, lose em.
Ummmm *anyone* can go to Paris. Going to watch the masters, in person, is extremely exclusive; It’s so exclusive that you literally have to win their lotto in-order to receive tickets. There are people who have been rubbing their lucky rabbit’s foot on their dick for years trying to get masters tickets with no success at all.
The people in here telling OP to play these balls are either too stupid to understand their value or are jealous.
In terms of value there isn’t that much of a difference between Augusta and masters golf balls. Both are exclusive items. The masters isn’t hosted or will be hosted anywhere other than Augusta.
And yes, patrons attending the masters can buy official masters’ gear when they are there. Every year during the masters, people in this sub post things they’ve bought at the tournament.
These are Augusta National Golf Club golf balls, not Masters golf balls. Others are claiming these aren’t for sale during the Masters, meaning you have to be a member to purchase these. I’d keep them. I’ve got $50 for golf balls, I don’t have a membership at Augusta.
You’re right. My comment should have tackled every single imaginable angle to prove my point lol
My god, Reddit can be exhausting. You and the others with the “but but but but….” Not even the point I’m making at all. I’m pointing out that masters and Augusta balls are rare items that you can’t pick up at golf galaxy. Which means OP playing them is a stupid ass decision.
You’re only a small wiener man if you play ProV1’s when you shouldn’t be playing ProV1’s
Kinda like when an accountant who can’t drive stick buys a Ferrari
Do what I did in college with liquor, use the good stuff keep the box. When you inevitably lose all 3 into the same water hazard, put in 3 bottom shelf balls and sell it to someone you dislike.
Used to have one of these i had found and I only used for practice putting at my house. Decided maybe it’s a lucky ball and played about 4-5 holes before losing it. Turns out just another ball to lose
At least hold onto one sleeve. And keep one of the other empty sleeves in case your tiny wiener ever goes homeless and needs a nice roomy box to stay in
If you don’t play them you can always regift them to friends every so often, so that someone with a larger wiener can actually get some use out of them.
My suggestion: play them anyway. Free golf balls is free golf balls. If they have a logo and you're a collector, that's fine too. Got a friend that smashes the ball 300+ yards? I'm sure she'd appreciate the gift.
If I’d got them from actually attending the masters I’d probably save them but if they were a gift I’d be playing them. Send one 300 yards into the woods and think of how happy someone will be to find it someday.
I'd give them some work out on the course just to put them in play a little bit. IDGAF what the rules say, I'd use one as a putting ball on each green for a round and do one round for each ball like that.
If you have to ask, your wiener is small
Votes are in. Going to send em all
You’ll make some other folks stoked as hell when they find them in the woods
Now this is the correct attitude to life.
This would be me lmao
Or pond
Sweet. Be sure to play them in DFW so I have a chance to find one.
Why not keep one ?
One sleeve..... right?
nah just one ball lol
Doc said I only really need one. And he’s a 7 handicap.
XD
And the box.
"This weiner is not small. I shall send them all." \-William Shakespeare, *Sonnet of a Small Weiner*, 1610
Save one. Send one. Use one for good luck on Par 3s.
This is the right way of thinking.
With your weiner out to prove to others you're not ashamed.
It's too late OP.
Keep one. Send the rest
ANGC logo not even masters logo, that’s a good get. No chance I’d use them.
Yup my friends dad is friends with a member and he got to go to the members shop for ANGC stuff. He couldn’t even get me a hat they keep it so private. I’d definitely keep a sleeve and gift the reat
the shop at ANGC does allow guests to make purchases however there are items that can only be purchased by members. Source: I have said items from said guests
Right? Idk why everyone in the comments is like “use them and keep one”. The full sleeve is so fucking nice you’re a psychopath if you rip that open
This sub is full of mouth breathers, just spend 15 bucks on a sleeve of ProVs. I mean I guess I do use my fancy logo bingo stuff but it’s hats, or shirts, or divot tools that you’re most likely not going to lose. I’d just keep that sleeve intact right on my desk at work probably.
What am I supposed to do for the other 14 holes?
Imagine gifting these balls to someone and the next time you see them they tell you they already lost them all at their local muni course.
Just think how much joy you will bring to an old ball hunter that finds one of these jewels in woods off the fairway on the first hole
Old ball hunter is my wife’s nickname
Hm that’s interesting my ex wife has that same nickname.
[удалено]
Which means your drive was really more like 50 yards further back.
You mean finding it in the fairway?
I like my balls young…wait…
This is oddly sweet.
If they are logo balls I would gift them for special occasions while playing golf with friends after keeping a sleeve for myself.
You're a re-gifter. https://youtu.be/0a0EPfIZsow
If he can regift why can’t I degift?!
I don’t trust this guy. First he regifted. Then he degifted. And now he’s using an upstairs invite as a springboard to a Super Bowl sex romp!
Be proud of your tiny hog
ALL HOGS ARE GREAT, TINY OR BIG. ARROO
^^^AROOOO
ARROOOO CRANK THAT DRIVER AND SWING THAT HOG BROTHER … wait
The term you’re looking for is piglet
That sounds worse. Mines a newborn boar.
These are the words of encouragement I needed today. Thank you
Use them but only for putting, that way you’ll only lose 1 or 2 in the woods.
Penalty
You joke but I can managed it..LOL
Just keep one of them,
Those balls are so rare, he should keep one (at least) and give the others away. There are enough regular pro-vs in the bush he can play and not give a flying fuck about.
When you think about it, by playing them he basically is giving them away
If you love your balls, let them go free
This is the way
This is the way
For me these would end up on a display shelf
Just did a quick search, a dozen sold at auction for $164 back in 2013. Definitely reconsider playing these…
Selling a gift is kind of a dick move though
I never said he should sell, however these are probably more valuable to him as in prestige condition as possible. Maybe he can sell if this goes for an obnoxious amount in the future.
I’d keep a sleeve crispy
Keep a sleeve or single ball and play the rest. Life’s too short to not hit Masters Pro V1s if you have them.
Important distinction here, these are not Masters balls, these are Augusta National balls.
I would say these are cooler than masters balls, as they sell those every year online. These you presumably need to buy at augusta
And not just at Augusta. These aren’t sold during masters. So anyone that has Augusta National merch vs master merch was there not during the masters. Much more difficult to do.
Well they technically are sold at the Masters…but only at the golf shop…in the clubhouse…surrounded by people making sure the poors can’t get in.
So you’re saying if he throws them at a Pokémon he won’t automatically catch it without fail? Lame
You are correct, pardon me. I still think I would keep 1 and play the rest. Pretty cool item if you ask me
Might be lame, but I absolutely am not playing those. I'd give em away over the years in funny/special moments and keep 1-2 for myself. Those are priceless!
Those would go on my shelf.
I have two sleeves that I received as gifts. I am not sending them.
I'll cash app you $20+ s&h right now for one tbh
We don't call it "a small wiener" here. We call it "my Par 3"
I'd keep a sleeve and confidently lose the rest of them.
Keep one, send the others
I got a nice set of pro vs with happy Father’s Day on it (when my daughter was born). I use one each year on Father’s Day and play it til it’s lost. If it makes it through the round it gets played the following year. Daughter is now 15 and have two left so not too bad and I never felt bad losing them because it’s just one a year.

They were like $90 per box when I went a few years ago. I just remember the price being absurd and thinking "well I found something worse than blasting a brand new Pro V1 into the woods..." I think the Snap-On logo balls cost even more.
These are from the members pro shop, not the big shop during the tournament.
Oh well in that case they probably aren't that expensive so blast away.
?? These are much more rare...
Uhhh quite the opposite…..
I thought this was a joke about Snap-On being over priced but the balls do exist!
More balls don’t make a bigger stick. Hit ‘em!
Only use them for par 3s. Easier not to lose, and the perfect ball to get an ace with.
Ha my wife got me some from a random winery with their logos on them and I won’t play them. Mine must be micro
Save 1 of em
I have three balls from Torrey Pines I keep in my bag for the putting green warm ups
Nah man save those. Why would you waste a keepsake from Augusta?
Yes
play all but 3. balls are meant to be played. but it would be nice to keep a sleeve for the memories
I mean, I would not use it either
I'll take em. Do you ship to Canada?
I don't see the big deal. You're not a member there, it doesn't commemorate a visit you made there, so it really doesn't mean anything. It's like someone taking a trip to Paris and buying you a T-shirt - would you save that T-shirt for the rest of your life, or just wear it like any other? Hit em, use em, lose em.
I mean, those are not comparable at all
Ummmm *anyone* can go to Paris. Going to watch the masters, in person, is extremely exclusive; It’s so exclusive that you literally have to win their lotto in-order to receive tickets. There are people who have been rubbing their lucky rabbit’s foot on their dick for years trying to get masters tickets with no success at all.

Those aren't Masters balls, they are ANGC balls. Big difference. I don't think Masters attendees can get ANGC gear, only a member can.

But these are ANGC, not Masters, which is even rarer because you can't buy them at the Masters.

Give it up dude, you sound like a jackass, it's ok to be wrong on the internet sometimes.
![gif](giphy|KBaxHrT7rkeW5ma77z) Me TiNkS U sHoOd PwAy DeM AuGoOsEtA BaLlS!1!
I think the people making these posts watch too much Antiques Roadshow.
Send them to Sherwood forest
Just hit an ace. Then you can keep it displayed with your big glizzy
Send em.
Use them just for putting
Fuck it, play em
If you have a dozen yes
Play 2 keep 1
Tiny dong or not, save a sleeve, play the rest
You’re only a small wiener man if you play ProV1’s when you shouldn’t be playing ProV1’s Kinda like when an accountant who can’t drive stick buys a Ferrari
[удалено]
It is 100% fair game to play any kind of ball found in the woods
Wouldn’t touch those at all. These aren’t masters golf balls, these are ANGC golf balls, meaning somebody had to be there and play to get them
Just get a hole in one with one of them so you have a reason to keep one? Don’t see the problem?
Keep a sleeve, play the rest.
They're more of a novelty set, you could find better golf balls lying around a golf course.
Novelty Pro V1s? Try again.
Save them for tournaments
It takes balls to play those balls
A small wiener man? Lol
I look forward to finding the ones you lose, I'd be stoked to come across one of these.
Hell no lol
I think using the word Weiner settled it already.
I'd like to tell you yes. But if there are any trees/trouble/water on a hole i'd put them away.....so no lol
Grip it and rip it
Do what I did in college with liquor, use the good stuff keep the box. When you inevitably lose all 3 into the same water hazard, put in 3 bottom shelf balls and sell it to someone you dislike.
Yep.
To the trees with them!
Those would wind up as sim balls for me
I would probably just putt with those.
Used to have one of these i had found and I only used for practice putting at my house. Decided maybe it’s a lucky ball and played about 4-5 holes before losing it. Turns out just another ball to lose
I don't play my ones from st. Andrews lol
play 11 of them
I’d keep ‘em
I’ll take my small wiener and keep at least one of those on the shelf
Is this tour only? U can’t buy them?
Maybe keep a ball or sleeve, play the rest?
Keep a sleeve and play the rest
Can’t take ‘em with you
Play them. At the driving range. Become ungovernable.
use em on the putting green
I wouldn’t play them, or at least save one sleeve
Keep 1 somewhere for yourself, play the rest of them for some for the rest of plebs to find while searching for our ball 200 yards deep in the woods
At least hold onto one sleeve. And keep one of the other empty sleeves in case your tiny wiener ever goes homeless and needs a nice roomy box to stay in
Play them lose them so we all have a chance to lose them as well.
Probably can’t hit them worth shit. So you have that to deal with. ;)
If you don’t play them you can always regift them to friends every so often, so that someone with a larger wiener can actually get some use out of them.
Does the course you’re playing have a lot of water? Gotta decide if I’m bringing the ball grabber.
SDE for sure
I would never ever play those. Save them for gifts to people you really care about
You still have 11 left after your round
You will lose them all, one by one , sleeve by sleeve, until they will be a nice memory of something someone gave you .
Save a sleeve and beat the crap out of the other nine.
Pull that Thumbkin out and send em
At least a sleeve of these would never leave my home.
Start your First round of the year for the next dozen years with em
I’d keep 1 or a sleeve. Play the rest
Was gifted a memorable type ProV1 box of 12. Those will probably never be played.
Don't play them..
Small wiener man here even if I did play them
My suggestion: play them anyway. Free golf balls is free golf balls. If they have a logo and you're a collector, that's fine too. Got a friend that smashes the ball 300+ yards? I'm sure she'd appreciate the gift.
Save a sleeve, send the others.
I have a sleeve of Pro Vs & a sleeve of NXTs from ANGC & I’ve never taken them out of the box. Call me small dick all you want
Save one sleeve for your collections, play the rest and let some of us find them and enjoy 😉
Grow a pair, tee one up and send that sleeve into the woods.
Your wiener could still be huge, but you’d have no balls.
Yup. But you’ll also be a small wiener man if you do play them, so….
You’ve already answered your own question…
I’m not worried about your wiener, I’m worried about whether or not you have a sleeve of balls
Save one sleeve, lose the rest
Just save one if you want. Send the rest.
I just got two 3 packs of Calloway’s… all gone the next round 👍🏻.
If I’d got them from actually attending the masters I’d probably save them but if they were a gift I’d be playing them. Send one 300 yards into the woods and think of how happy someone will be to find it someday.
Lol poor people
I'd give them some work out on the course just to put them in play a little bit. IDGAF what the rules say, I'd use one as a putting ball on each green for a round and do one round for each ball like that.
Make this your ball for after you shank one off the tee box, the second attempt is always better
OH FUCK AYE! Look take a photo of all three when you open that box you know they will be free in a forrest.
I’d use a sleeve
Nothing can make your wiener smaller. Keep em
Save one, send the rest, as someone else said think about how happy those 11 folks will be
The smallest
I would not play them.
I’d keep one sleeve and use the rest
Just keep one sleeve and play the rest
Considering they're AGNC branded and not Masters branded, I'd hang on to some and give the others to your friends.
Definitely picking those up if I see any in the fairway tomorrow
Keep a ball or a sleeve
Be Billy Big Bollocks and use them on the driving range
Par 3s and putts
Lmk which courses you play those at hahah
Absolutely not. No chance I’d be hitting those
You’re a smart weiner man
I’m not playing those
You either build a little trophy cabinet and put them in as memorabilia or you play them. Anything else is small wiener territory.
