This golf ball game kind of sounds like rimfire bocce ball! Reading this did remind me of an old episode of the TV show wings where Brian (?) wasn't invited along with Lowell and his buddy on a rat shooting safari because "two's company, three's crossfire..."
My first 22 was a nylon 66 my dad bought for $50 from Kmart when remington dropped the model. Unfortunatley mine had a magazine defect and traded it for something dumb before repairing it (I was young...). Got lucky recently and found an good condition apache black & chrome replacement for $150.
