While on the moon, Alan Shepard used a Wilson six-iron head attached to a lunar sample scoop handle to drive Golf balls. Despite thick gloves and a stiff spacesuit which forced him to swing the club with one hand, Shepard struck two golf balls; driving the second, as he jokingly put it, "miles and miles and miles."
It was hit by Alan Shepard. Shepard himself never told anybody what brand of ball he used, however, his golf pro knew.
(From link below)Jack Harden, the pro at Houston's River Oaks Country Club, provided the sawed-off six-iron that Shepard took to the moon. (The club resides at the USGA museum in Far Hills, N.J.) Harden received a shipment of two-piece Surlyn-covered range balls from Spalding in 1971. "They had two blue stripes on them and said PROPERTY OF JACK HARDEN," says Jack Harden Jr., whose father died last August. "Dad knew there'd be extreme temperatures up there, so he gave Shepard some of those durable range balls."
