Phil's golf balls

Did I see something here?
Since Phil was the desert fox yesterday the Golf Channel zoomed in quite a bit to his balls in the desert. I did not see the usual hex dimples of a Callaway ball on these close ups of Phil removing pebbles from his ball.

Was I seeing things here? The ball had the Callaway logo on it but it sure looked to not have hex dimples.

Hey, it's fine if you want to look at his balls, but don't go around bragging about something that inappropriate! This is a clean site! JK

I know why he was using that HEX-less ball. Basically Callaway was like,

 

"Hey Phil, do you want to try our new ball."

 

PM - "Sure, what's the difference."

 

Cally Rep - "Well, it's better than the old HEX design balls."

 

PM - "Alright, let's go to the range and I will hit a few."

 

{Phil hits a couple of balls.}

 

PM - "Boy, this ball sure does feel like the PRO-V...

 

Cally - "What! No way, it's nothing like the Pro-V1."

 

PM - "Yeah, it feels pretty much like the Pro-V1. Real solid, nice flight, great distance."

 

Cally - "Well, I guess we should probably tell you."

 

PM - "About what?"

 

Cally - "Titleist stole our patents and they made this awesome ball, so instead of us actually making a ball that would be just as good. We believe that since this ball was made with our technology, we technically own it. So we accquired some and restamped them with our logo."

 

PM - "What are you going to call it?"

 

Cally - "We were thinking the Ho-V1."

 

PM - "What are going to do with the old HEX design balls?

 

Cally - "We are going to donate them to some putt putt courses because that is where we got the idea for them anyway."

 

PM - "That makes sense. They are hollow, clicky off the putter and they are way too light."

 

Cally - "Yeah, thank god for the Titleist technicians, or you would be playing an HX HOT right now."

 

{PM and Cally both laughing, end scene}

that was a solid script! my only question is how long did it take you to write it? i should probably be asking how long until i can get my hands on the Ho-V1?
