Current Goal

NEW MISSION (Updated 09/19/07)
Grampy has relocated from Boston to Tennessee since we released this bug a few years ago. We will post the name of the Golf Club we'd like to have this bug arrive at within the next 2 weeks. Please don't move it out of the state of Tennessee!

If you're a golfer, please take the bug with you for a round of golf in your area and take a picture of it with you and your golfin' buds. Or, in case it's not good golfin' weather, just include a note about your best or worst golf moment...

Hopefully this little guy will end up with quite a few good stories before arrivin' at Grampy's new golf club.

Thanks! the Jambaloobas

About This Item

Golfin' with Grampy

This is one of two logo balls we picked up from Quaboag while golfing in June of 2002 with my step-dad. When the vows were spoken a day later, "Grampy" officially got himself a new wife, 2 new sons, 2 new daughters-in-law, and three new grandkids. This is just a sentimental way to make sure he knows he's appreciated. (if you toss in a golf story including a dad or grand-dad, you get bonus points ;)

Golfin' with Grampy has joined MaxB's Escorted TB Group Tour "I Love My NY Valentine". We tried to pick up this TB when it came through Indiana a few months ago, but missed it. We had to search the rough several hundred miles to log it as a find.

Picked this one up at the Cold-Weather-Cachers Celtic Confab in Syracuse NY. Met alot of geocachers who I can put faces to names now. Wish I could tell a story about my Golfin, but really never had the sport for it. But I will move it on its mission. 😉
