And gullible me, I find the ambassador's explanation entirely believable. Maybe I just don't jump to the conclusion people are lying to me as the first option. Many a time ambassadors have noted what color ball Mrs Blueash uses and offered her some matching item from their cart. I have seen balls at the starter shack offered for free.

As to whether the friend sends them overseas, I have no idea. Even if he does not that does not mean the ambassador is aware his friend is keeping or selling the balls rather than shipping them.

Why offer you water when you are next to a water cooler? I asked once.. sometimes you learn something that way. The water cooler water has been there all day and the water in the cart is much fresher. The ambassador told me some golfers think the fresher colder water tastes better. So there's the reason. Nice of him to offer.
