Golf Ball Identification Thread

[604Golf]

Hi Everyone. I collect Callaway Truvis golf balls. In this world there are a few of them that have never been ID'd for going on several years.
This community seems like the right place to reach out to in order to help identify some of these mystery golf balls.
Also if you have any Truvis that need identifying I can be of help!

This is the one I'm most curious about. See picture!

There have been many guesses on this one but none match the face. Remains a mystery Truvis

@shanewu any ideas?

Jeez this is an interesting one. I'm guessing reverse image searching brings up nothing?

Nope; me and the other Truvis nerds tried it all. Nothing comes up!

My first thought was David Leadbetter because of the Callaway connection and hat, but the glasses probably eliminate that idea.

Maybe @JasonFinleyCG would be willing to shed some light on this if he happens to know?

Easy -- That's Bagger Vance

I mean if only we had access to the wonderful mind of the Callaway Grandaddy captain haha.
I just shot him a text and I am sure he can fill me in.

If you guys could get this it would solve a few year long mystery with the truvis collectors people

Well you got the guy that would know looking into it for you so give it a bit of time and I'm sure you'll get the answer.

I don't think so. The glasses seem to be a pretty key feature of the mystery man on the ball.
And im pretty sure the man on the ball is Caucasian

Jim Thorpe is my guess

I agree; here's some photos of Jim Thorpe. In the 2nd photo you can see he was a Callaway guy.

 

[604Golf]

Oooooo that looks close!
I wish i could see if he has those identifiable eyebrow features!

Thanks! Emailing him was my next move. haha

 

[cmon man]

Happy Felton or Hello Chicken Nugget guy are possibilities according to my research lol

Another Mystery Ball

One I discovered yesterday which is unknown in the Truvis world. I feel like this one should be identifiable by someone. Anyone?
