The Great Pyramids

Hidden away behind iron gates and cavernous club houses, the great pyramids await. Like the less famous pyramids in Egypt, the golf ball pyramids are a wonder of nature. Not widely seen, these glorious stacks of balls can only be found on the driving ranges of high priced golf courses and country clubs.

Pyramids are even better when they are made from golf balls

On most golfing days I am faced with usual task of plopping down an extra $5.00 for a range balls prior to my round.  However, on the rare occasion that I get to play a country club or high brow public course, all bets are off as I know I will be greeted to sheer joy in the shape of golf ball pyramids. Hundreds upon hundreds of balls just waiting to be hit. The only problem is that like a good meal, it is hard to leave the plate unfinished. Making the situation worse is when there are stacks balls not only on the driving range, but on the chipping green and god willing, behind the sand trap. It is really a wonder I ever make it to the 1st tee box with so much opportunity. I mean, I think my brain literally calculates how much I am saving with every swing of the club.

For you lucky folks who belong to such club and simply appreciate the convenience of the golf ball pyramid, my hats off to you for your worldly success, but for the rest of us, they will remain one of the 7 great wonders of the world.
