Clear out clutter of odd golf balls

  Please could you find a way of allowing me to delete or gift the many one of a kind/weird golf balls I've collected over time. I buy my balls for spin and distance and I've got a lot of freebies I've collected from various tournaments, etc. They're cluttering up my bag and I'd like to get rid of them. If you had a practice range perhaps I could just shoot them into the water one after the other.

   

  Oh, and I'm still waiting to be able to buy a cap . . . and a Sunday Orange outfit.

  The best way to get rid of unwanted balls , is stroke play practice rounds , or ctth rounds .Or you can also go into the community page , and pick a hole with water , and fire away . I personally get rid of mine by playing ctth , when bored .They also come in handy for practice rounds and using the mulligan .Food for thought .:-)

  Tedious, but you could do the Best of Water CTTH and launch them into the water on the first hole one by one

  or

  b9 of congo starts with that par 3 that has that huge lake between tee and green, could have a duff fest in to that thing and feed it all those balls. Maybe then it wouldn't take any good ones from the rest of the players

  Doesn't have to be water.  Load up any hole and turn your avatar backward on the tee and hit at 20% or so and voila - ball is gone.  You can also aim anywhere outside the mini-map and launch the driver.  Once the ball is struck you can end the round - you don't have to wait for it to land and tell you that it was OB.

  How does a few balls clutter up your bag, they make no difference to anything.

  The idea of starting 20 odd games to get rid of them seems much more of a bother than just allowing a few pixels to remain on my screen.

  I agree Paul, i have a ll different kinda balls in my bag, don't care, as I never actually see them cuz I never change them. When screen says buy now I do.

  Just wanted to give the OP a couple idears as to how to get rid off em.

  How about this, pick a hole with a tree close to the tee, drive straight for the tree and see if you can get a rebound to knock your avatar out cold, hehe.

  Go to the Roadhole (17th St.Andy) and fire them into the hotel.

  Every time you do it say - 'Waiter, there's a golf ball in my soup'
