voice-controlled golf balls
A lot more fun than working on your swing!

this simple but effective contraption is made up of a microchip, a tiny gyroscope and a really tiny microphone, all covered with a super ball and impact-resistant coating of dimples. User simply swats at the ball and barks commands at it ('Go left", "stay outta the trap", "sit", etc) , and the ball obeys by changing trajectory. I think this would really sell at our course...

       The logical progression of this idea: Just walk up to the hole and drop the damn ball into it. Game over.   

       Remember Ted Knight's golf bag in "Caddyshack"?
