well it wouldnt really be like the old tv with spraying with water.. it would be the pcb/and stuff in the cabinet, which would then be in a little housing unit.. so it should work indefinately i'd think... i dunno we'll find out i guess.

I havent played golden tee live yet, as its overly complicated nature has turned off the people i might normally get to play it with me at the bars.. people at bars, drinking, drunk, etc.. dont want complications.. they want the same player everyone else is using, and simple, so they can play...

gotta figure out if i have space and then figure out what I need, so it might be a while, but if i can get my bro to help me out, than we'll do it.. still not sure if its a good idea; if anyone has any experience with cabs outside, please post the info!

if I build the housing well enough, have the cab raised an inch or two off the ground within the unit, and have it totally enclosed with a roof and doors for the front, it should survive right?

heres teh details: cabinet is total crap, old.. not sure what it originally was, it was a pit fighter cab when I bought it, obviously not dedicated.. now its a golden tee, but the cabinet really hasnt been cleaned up, still ugly. is there anything I could put inside the cabinet to minimize...

I have a golden tee machine I'd like to keep outside on a patio, near the outside bar. However, thats obviously a bad idea; but if I could create some sort of housing for it, around it, it could work.. with a door and everything.. anyone ever try to do this? the machine would normally stay in...

i dunno if its legit or not, nobody seems to know... classic was a "final" edition for the 3d board.. so i could see them deciding to do a "final" edition for the fore board.. the older courses graphics from fore, 2002, 2003,2004,2005 should all be the same, essentially just course swaps...

ahh, yah, I saw your paypal situation; i can see that it would lower the transaction price.. you are better off throwing up the items for 10days at a buy it now, also I think you put Golden Tee Classics, which may have screwed up some searches, i dunno.. throw them up at Golden Tee 2001...

well, i woke up too early and was feeling stupid so i purchased a happ trackball new, that apparently is translucent green and glows.. ?? so we'll see how it does.

happ seems to be more expensive but than I see alot of people saying in their ebay auctions that "imperials are the way to go! preferred by vendors".. that just a lie? I really have no clue what is wrong with this current one.. I cleaned it all up, and it doesnt run great but it should work...

I have a benson imperial used trackball I got, and its crapping out on me.. half the time the left/right functions of it dont work. I lubed up the closed bearings, cleaned it out, etc etc.. yet, still, half the time the damn left/right functions go out.. could it be because of a bad optical...

you just sold that one for $60 on ebay, no? I think these boards will be a bit cheaper now that the market is getting flooded with the Fore boards.

Already have a golden tee fore control panel, and have a gt99 in there.. would like to upgrade to the fore board, whether it be fore, 2002 or 2003. also looking for generic GT side art if anyone has it! thanks! -jim

it seems that depending on how the screws holding the trackball into the control panel are tightened, determines how well the trackball is working for me. unfortunately, two of the screw inserts on the control panel/harness are somewhat stripped, so tehy dont hold the screws well, but the other...

gosh dangit.. now the dang thing is so finnicky.. it will work, left/right.. but half the time it doesnt want to register anything but forward/backwards.. could it be something is tightened too much? poor connection??? any ideas?
