1. I don't know why someone would...

but I know that I love it.

2. I can.

My mother's boss has the same one. He writes his score on the ball with a sharpie and displays them. Over time, higher scores are removed to make room for lower scores.

He golfs on Mondays because the course is almost empty. The perks of being a corporate president.

5. that's kind of a cool idea, actually

3. weird people collect them

like shot glasses or commemorative spoons

4. In grandma's case...it was elephants.

She took being a Republican elector a little too seriously. We had so many elephants when we cleaned out the house that whenever somebody showed up and asked for something...we made them take an elephant.

6. To prove you have balls?

:P

7. My brother in law displays his collection like that

He collects ones that have the logos of different famous courses. :shrug:

8. Golf courses sell balls with the course logo printed on them

If you liked to go to all different places on vacation and play golf while there, you might collect balls as souvenirs.

Or, like the DUer upthread pointed out, you might write your score on balls when you have good games, and keep the balls as souvenirs.

Besides, we're talking about golfers. They do things only other golfers would understand, and this is one of them.
