Ever wonder how many balls are in that pyramid at the range?

2016 - Faldo Oceanico course in the Algarve, Portugal. One of my Sons first rounds on an 18 hole course. Certainly his first at a venue of this quality. And definitely his first on foreign turf…..

 

The whole Pyramid of balls thing on the range just confused him further 🤣

I'm very analytical by nature (nerd).  Got to thinking about how many balls I'm hitting at the range on a normal day.  Did math.

 

Ball pyramid at my range has a base of 8x8 balls.  Without thinking at all I had it in my head it was around 80 balls or so.  Wrong. 

This 8x8 pyramid actually totals 204 balls.  Now I don't feel so bad about not finishing it off all the time.

So if your pyramid is a little different, here's some numbers for you based on the base level of the pyramid:

10= 385

9= 285

8= 204

7= 140

6= 91

5= 55

 

Have fun.

I'm very lazy by nature so I just used Google.

 

Same answers so A+ on the work.

Ha ! Did he imagine somehow having to ‘float around’ so as to not disturb the hallowed turf 🤣😎

 

I can’t speak for you - but my Dad wasn’t really a golfer. So I worked and more likely ‘earned’ my way up to courses of that ilk over quite some years.

 

But now that Dad is a golfer: my Son got subjected to some nicer courses, with their own decorum, rules and regulations far sooner that I ever did.

 

I guess that must be quite a culture shock !

 

Enjoy time playing with your son 🙏

My son played golf for several years before I pulled a few strings to get us a round at the local club. It was definitely culture shock to my son. I’m a muni guy, and my sons have been as well. I’ve been very fortunate to play golf all over the country and on some of the nicest clubs. But I also worked for those opportunities or played my way into them. But I’ve taught my boys the game at the local munis so those nicer places creep them out a little.
