None of the above. I subcontract for a company that has contracts with the courses The courses get compensated (by the contractor) with either cash or balls. All I do is let the contractor know when I want to work, check my email for the location and head to the course. When I get about 30,000-45,000 balls (about every two weeks), I let the contractor know and they setup the shipping. Good easy money!!! I see your from Colorado. Looking for a job??
 
30k to 45k balls in two weeks? Holy crap!
 
Don't fancy diving golf courses.

OTOH I occasionally find golf balls when diving Sunnyside beach near Tacoma. My golfing buddy uses them for practice, but he tells me that they tend to explode when hit if they've spent too long underwater...

And what does one make in dollars after turning over 30-45k golf balls?
 
If it's a lot, I might have a new career. :wink:
