    Anyone here been experimenting with ball color to provide the best contrast on your computer monitor.  So far I have tried light blue, dark blue, purple, white, and yes pink; 

    So far pink (lol) provides the best contrast between the sky, green and fairway, ie easy to spot.  Anyone here have different preferences.

    More than anything, I'd just like to know WTF different coloured balls cost different amounts of credits. Why?

    Easy really... people who don't mind spending more for the exact same thing get to look different from the crowd.

    It's a no brainer, money maker for WGT.  If you find someone willing to pay 2x (3x+) more than someone else, why not take advantage of it.

    I half expected them to come out with American Flag (Canadian Flag, Swedish Flag, etc) balls for the Olympics and charge 5x normal price.

    And, believe it or not, there are a bunch of ppl here who would buy them.

    Back to the OP:

    The only reason I would try another color ball IRL is so I can see it on the fairway walking up... here, as long as the computer knows where the bal is, I don't see a need to change colors.  It's amazing how the computer can always find the ball (if it's in play.)
