I stumbled across this, the Ballfinder Scout; apparently a must-have golf accessory that will actually find your lost balls in the rough for you!! It is a hand-held electronic unit that finds your golf ball in the rough, even if as few as three dimples are showing, then displays a picture on screen and directs you to the ball.
The Ballfinder Scout actually displays a visual image of your ball and within a range of up to 35 feet will direct you straight to it! The Ballfinder Scout has even been endorsed by the ‘one and only’ Nick Faldo, who is quoted saying -
“I will only have my name associated with something I believe in. And I believe in the SCOUT™. At every level in golf, everybody loses golf balls. With the SCOUT™ you are going to find your ball quicker. You can play faster, have more fun and shoot better scores. It’s rare when something comes along that could improve the entire game of golf. Let SCOUT™ improve your golf experience.”
I found this on onlinegolf.co.uk at a pricey £129.99, a little expensive I thought but I can’t help to be intrigued if it will actually work!
