Famed for the playing card suits stamped on the golf balls, a Penfold ball became the most famous golfing ball in cinematic history when used in the 1964 Bond film Goldfinger. James Bond played a Penfold Heart golf ball when defeating Auric Goldfinger in a golf match against the Bond villain. Stoke Park Golf Club, Stoke Poges was the backdrop for one of cinema's most celebrated golf matches of all time.
If the 1960s Bond movies made the young Sean Connery a star, they also shot the Penfold Heart to fame. Never before was a golf ball in such demand. Orders for Penfold Hearts sky-rocketed as golfers competed to be seen with the uber-cool golf ball after James Bond's line: "Mine's the Penfold Heart!"
The original golf balls are sometimes available on Ebay, fetching high prices.
