The golf balls on my Tee'd Off looked horrible. I can't believe that they were built this bad from the factory. Before I knew Steve at Pinball Resource still had the tees, I decided to just by a bag of practice balls from Walmart. I drilled a hole just slightly larger than the diameter of the LED bulb I used and just let them rest on the top of the Rounds board like they are sitting on grass instead of being teed up. In order to make them a little more stable, I got plastic grommets from the local hardware store that were slightly larger in diameter than the bulb base, but about the same size as the hole in the top of the Rounds board and inserted them in the hole in the ball. Now they sit perfectly and look much cleaner in my opinion. I think I have a light sheet with how many bulbs I used to replace the GI.

Here are some pictures I took today. The LED map is not very good. pasted_image (resized).pngpasted_image (resized).pngThe little piece of tap on the ball is to keep it from spinning. pasted_image (resized).pngpasted_image (resized).pngpasted_image (resized).pngpasted_image (resized).pngAs for the color DMD, it is PIN2DMD and the colorization was done by me. Might be the only color dmd Tee'd Off in the world for all I know.
Hope this helps.
