I have several courses around Portland, OR under contract to retrieve the balls in their lakes. Looking for experienced divers to work with in this area as an independent contractor for full time work. Please send your info if interested to geeseguys@gmail.com.

There are some interesting things said about the ponds of golf courses.

There are some interesting results when human skin is exposed to large amounts of pesticides that can be found in golf course pools.....

and a cheap "face" suit. Also glue your mask to your face, so's to not get any leaks. Ugh to dive in a stagnant pond, full of pesticides, bacteria and whatever, not diluted by moving water. Maybe I'd do it for about 100.00 a ball.

I think the going rate is around $.05 / ball

Seems worth it

Are you sure you don't want to get any of that water in your eyes? I heard it gave you x-ray vision....

Hi Jeff,
Yeah, a cheap suit- I don’t think you can get a bio-suit that covers from head to toe cheap, not even a used one. I found one though; it has data sensor points that limit your exposure to the toxic sludge in those ponds from “shite it’s eating its way through” to “kiss my arse goodbye”.

What about one of the old style full body, screw on helmet rigs?

hmmm getting X-Ray vision would be super neat though, only for the fact that finding Octopus and wolf eels would be easier...

I was thinking there were some equally good uses on dry land for that type of vision. I would have killed for it as a perverted kid…
