I play golf, so when Don Gonzales came up with this pattern, I had to try it. I made a couple of changes,  I used a strap instead of a clip to better go around a push cart frame, and opened up the bottom to make squeezing a ball out easier. Go easy on my tooling, still learning that part.

Nice work. I don't golf but I've wanted to make one.

Looks good. Great work. Does that hold 3balls? & where do you strap it? 

Thanks.

The pattern calls for a snap. This, IMHO, limits where you can attach it. The strap allows you to go around the tubing of a push cart that carries your bag. You can still attach it to your  bag if you want. It holds 4 balls. Thanks for the kind words. Also, opening the bottom allows the balls to come out much easier.

How does the opening on the bottom work. Is it some what friction fit where you can squeeze the ball out the bottom. 

Thanks.

Yes, you can squeeze a ball out of the bottom. It originally was a straight slot, but that took a lot of pressure to pop a ball out. I took a large corner punch and opened it up to make it easier.

Thanks. I appreciate you explaining it to me. I'll have to try & make 1.
