| I got a 20 lb bag of jumbo potatoes at walmart for $3, each weighs about a pound... everyone of em is more than 2" in diameter, and some are about 10" long, so almost all of them can be cut in half to make for two rounds. |

| Just do a search for them, thats how I did it. A lot of them for sale, the more you buy, the better deal you can get. |

How well do those balls fit in 1" PVC...too much slack or tight? I just bid on a smaller batch of 150. |

They all very slightly, but roll down on there own but not fast. Just enough air gets by to let them roll. I'd say just right. |

| I got my golf balls on Ebay. I believe it was 700 for $40 and $40 for shipping. Comes out to a total of about 11.5 cents per ball including shipping. They were in pretty good condition too. |
