In 1994, as I started obtaining logo balls from each new course I played, it occurred to me that I had some catching up to do. I needed to obtain logo balls for the 70-some courses I had played before I decided to use logo balls to document my golf travels. Since I had been logging my rounds for a long time, I knew all of the courses I needed to contact to bring my collection up-to-date. I visited all the courses local to Fort Wayne, IN I had played. When visiting my parents’ home in Wickliffe, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland, I visited each course I had played as a youngster. For every other course, I simply made phone calls. I made many tiny credit card purchases which included the cost of shipping and handling. And slowly, small packages appeared in my mailbox. I wonder what the postman thought.
