Carbon Creations: Golf Ball Caddy

So you're on the back nine and you slice your drive shot right into the water hazard to the right of the green. You've lost another ball to the out-of-bounds-gods. And you won't be getting it back (especially because of the sleepy gator who just swallowed it).

I know, the imagery is a astounding.

Anyway, you need a new ball. And you dread the risky venture into the deep side pouches of your golf bag, riddled with sharp tees and who knows what else. Ouch!

So you turn to your GOLF BALL CADDY!

I like to call it "the ball booper" because this genius idea allows you to squeeze above a new ball and "BOOP!" A new ball!

This makes a wonderful gift for Father's Day or a birthday/graduation/holiday of your favorite golf players.

Original directions were brought to me from Pinterest, of course.

Materials:

Woven fabric
Elastic string
Cord or shoelace
Sewing machine and such!
Plastic hook
Strap material
Golf balls! (six)

Instructions

1. Cut your fabric! 13 x 6 1/2 inches of the woven fabric is perfect for six golf balls.

Your cord or shoelace should be cut to 9 inches.

And you elastic, 6 inches.

2. Using a zigzag stitch prevent raveling on the two long edges of your woven fabric.

3. Fold over the two short edges twice to form a pocket of about 1/4".

4. Sew the two long edges together, but don't sew to close the pockets (You'll have to thread cord and elastic through them).

5. Attach the hook with the strapping. Again, make sure that you don't sew over the pocket part (that would make the next steps more difficult)

6. Thread the elastic through the bottom pocket (opposite the hook). Stretch the elastic so that a golf ball will fit through the opening, but actually stay in there. Sew it closed and trim it.
