  It would be a nice feature to have the ability to select another type of ball once you have used your stock of regularly used balls.  Instead of the system defaulting to the standard ball given freely by wgt.

  The Rules of Golf allow using a different make/model of ball during a round, but also allow tournament committees to invoke the one ball rule.

  Many tournaments do invoke the one ball rule, which is that a round has to be played with the same make/model of ball.

  WGT Beta also applies the one ball rule, and so automatically substitutes the unlimited Starter ball if the players bag doesn't have the same brand/model ball the round was started with.

  Understand the concept, but a lot of us wind up with one ball of certain types and they kind of sit in the bag and normally wind up not being used.

  So if they can be used up or resold would benefit the players.
