These two kids could greatly profit by collecting all these golf balls from the ocean, and re-sell them. They clean the ocean...and make lots of money. Win win solution.
Most big/popular golf courses have contracted professional divers who are exclusively allowed to collect the balls from the lakes and streams on that course. These guys apparently don’t have to pay for the balls so it’s all profit if they re-sell them. But, Yeh they prolly don’t need the money.
You guys should set up a ball refinishing shop in that garage and sell them. Just advertise “1$ per sleeve goes to clean up our ocean” make it a brand, people out there will love it, print a tiny logo of george costanza pulling a golf ball out of a whales blow hole. start a business, money doesn’t grow on tree it rolls around on the bottom of the ocean. 2 birds with one stone, clean it up, cash it in!
Started watching the video thinking they was diving to keep the balls and sell them. When she said it was a major problem i thought “wtf u going on about”
As an avid golfer, I always knew I was participating in something that wasn't always the most concious of taking care of our planet - it's no secret. From the bottom of my heart, thank you both for taking the initiative and keep us old privileged folks in check. The burden is unfortunately on your generation now to clean up the mess we made for you. We need more leaders like you to give us a chance. This is beyond inspiring. Thank you once again. Truly hope Pebble and other ocean courses around the globe take this problem seriously and most importantly, take REAL action + responsibility.
Yes, it is sickening, but many, many thanks to Alex and her friends who have brought this issue into the public sphere, and brought it to the attention of the overseers of the golf course. It's disturbing to reflect on how long this has been going on with no one even aware of the consequences to marine life. I'm sure that none of the golfers on this course did deliberate harm. They just weren't thinking. Too often, we go about our daily lives without considering our impact on the environment. Kudos again to Alex and friends!!
This is great thing Jack and Alex have done here! From a hobby doing good in their local area, to something that could potentially create waves across the entire US if not the world's Seaside Lynx golf clubs. Well done! I'm sure your parents, friends and families are very proud!
This makes me feel really good but at the same time really bad. Carmel beach in my favorite place in the world, as a kid I would spend entire days playing in the sand and the ocean, as well as playing golf. I never even knew the impact golf had in the environment. I almost never played in Pebble but I play in MPCC where we have two ocean courses where probably many golf balls have ended up in the ocean and it gratifying to know that there are people who care about the environment.
Anyone playing pebble beach is using a pro v1x or another high dollar ball. In one day, assuming they get 2,000 balls, they are making 10k! I wouldn’t want pebble beach getting on that! I would be collecting all those myself!
Lol, a few thousand golf balls in the ocean is a big problem? I do agree, they should clean up, but the music and drama.... they make it seem like they are saving the world.
Put a vending machine at the tee box on hole 8 with bio degradable golf balls in it, when they check in the get a “token” that’s good for a golf ball on the 8th tee that is required to be used unless it’s tournament play.
Resell the good ones you dorks. That's what they do around the world. Put up a road side stand outside the golf course and sell bags of the good balls. Recyle/reuse. I live in Asia and I only buy used golf balls, because soon enough I'll just send them back into the water hazard.
If you see, they are picking out the good ones into a cardboard box. Most of them are rubbish. That said, they need a grading machine that allows them to find the good ones easily.
This was the 180 degree exact opposite of what I thought it would be about. Pretty remarkable young folks here. California is so damn big on all of their problems except Americans that I’m sure they’ll do something about golf balls in the ocean.
wow...that's horrible. I am glad they care about the environment the way they do.... kudos to them. We need politicians like them in our world who can change the laws in favor of our environment. .
Well done and very inspiring Thank you...................dmkappa, thats no way to make friends,please listen to what has been said..............its everyones fault
“These are privileged kids.....”. Hmm you live in Carmel bay by pebble beach. You think?. However, I do applaud them for their effort towards the environment. 👏👏👍👍👍
Stu capitalism is essential a free market with limited regulation. A felony for selling golf balls is a regulation which is the opposite of the true meaning of capitalism.
Everyone saying re-sell them may have a a point. But from a golfers perspective, water logged balls are not really any good. From a tree- hugging greenies perspective manufacturers should be making eco- friendly -biodegradable golf balls. With the USGA considering a change to the ball for sustainability of golf reasons now seems the perfect opportunity to push for an eco ball without the toxins, heavy metals and plastics going into the waterways of the world. A win for the planet, a win for golfs image and ‘distance problem’ and a challenge for the manufacturers chemists to meet. What a legacy the golf establishment could leave with the happy side affect of me not feeling quite so bad when I slice one in the water.
I'm sure there are some golfers who do..."I'm in the fairway, lemme just tee up another and whack it into the Pacific. For the golf gods, y'know" Hell, Alice Cooper used to hit them into the ocean from the deck of his boat back in the day.
She brought it to their attention, it's not her job to present a plan of action... and anything that's foreign to the ocean is bad for it... 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Did you not noticed the balls that had been nibbled away by the fish ? That is plastic in a small fish that ends up in a bigger fish that ends up...in a bigger dork !
@@12gauge74 Are you serious? You think the ocean just magically disposes of trash? These golf balls break down into microplastics, which are eaten by marine life. I'm a diver, so I see what is under the surface. Plastics don't disappear, they are forever. Please read up on the problem rather than assuming the ocean isn't harmed.
Patrick Reynier what kind of break are you looking for? If any one person or company was simply dumping buckets of plastic/rubber in the ocean it should be a problem. You also clearly didn’t watch the full video because Pebble didn’t simple tell the,m “we don’t give a sh**”
The amount of ocean you’re “cleaning” near Pebble is literally a speck of the ocean. It’d be like cutting a single grass blade in your 10 acre yard. Sorry but this is pointless

I can feel the oceans thanking you all.
I have to comment again, after watching more of the video. This is so uplifting!! Thank you!

ill buy the chrome softs. lmfao
I'm with u, I'd buy the Nikes.
Just saw the segment during the open. Way to go! Good for Pebble Beach better late than never
Inspiring! Good on you two!
I would wish to go there and dive for golf balls it would save the environment and it would save me a bunch of money on golf
Your hard work is inspiring
My family and I stood on that very beach last summer on vacation. And we had no idea. Good luck to them.

Spot on!
Update on this? Super cool idea. They should partner with DALLMYD and Jiggin' with Jordan to get tons of golf balls in a video!
So are they selling these golf balls?
Carmel is very, very beautiful !!!!

Actually there are several golf courses as beautiful did not more than pebble beach 4:38

What this video shows me is how many awful golfers there are.
Pros also send it into the water. You don't play golf, do you?
buzzcrushtrendkill +4 champ. And i said golfers, all golfers. Maybe think more before writing another dumb thing
@@dmkappa62 That is a terrible attempt at a backpedal. "how many awful golfers there are". But don't apologize, because that shows weakness.
buzzcrushtrendkill obviously didn’t take my advice, thats a shame
Surprised to see some balls with rubber bands -- they haven't made those in twenty-years.
I am using a lake ball for local amateur tournament and still grab the second prize.
Y wouldn’t u sell them
It's a felony
@naruto_beatz how and why?

Alister McKenzie was saying in the 20s that a legal golf ball should float in water.
Watch my video on cleaning golf balls without any work.
Just watched a EAL video about a guy whos made $12 million diving for golf balls.
2:53 Shit pissed me off when she thought golfers hit it in the water on purpose
I'm sure there are some golfers who do..."I'm in the fairway, lemme just tee up another and whack it into the Pacific. For the golf gods, y'know"
Hell, Alice Cooper used to hit them into the ocean from the deck of his boat back in the day.
They are selling most of these balls, making a living doing this.
Umm a great idea is to sell some of them
It's a great spearfishing spot
I thought this is going to be a video about them monetizing their environmentalist efforts. Instead it was all about the environmentalist efforts.

Diving for those balls only for environmental reasons would be a huge waste of time.
Her wife will be very proud of her former efforts to clean up the Ocean.
this chick has nom plan for pebble to stop it but expects them to just stop it. isnt even bad for the ocean the balls
