Absolute Golf Ball provides customers with recycled golf balls at a fraction of the price for new golf balls.  When I was a young man in high school I retrieved golf balls to support myself.  Now decades later after a rewarding career I have found my way back to the begining.  I served our great country in two branches of the military, a federal employee and as a contractor in the Middle East.  I was injured (Non-Combat related) and was not able to serve in a capacity that I was able to before.  When I was injured I thought how hard it is to be fulfilled when you are not able to do things the same as before.  I started thinking what I could do to make a living and give others the same opportunity.  My wife and I were living in the Philippines and I asked her if I could make a small business in the USA.  My idea was to retrieve golf balls and employ a disadvantaged portion of our population and give them opportunity.  We also utilize Growth and Opportunity (located in Lapeer Michigan) a handicap labor company (501-C Non-profit) to sort our balls.  Eventually we plan to build our own warehouse and hire directly people with all forms of disabilities.  We now retrieve millions of balls and provide a great service to our community.
