We have seen some fun USB gadgets for golfers, such as the putt returner. Fans of this sport can now enjoy a computer accessory that is not only fun, but also quite useful.

The Green House company has come up with this USB mouse that looks like a golf ball and has a mousepad designed like a green. The green also comes with a tiny putter, a golf ball and a hole. And to top it off, the mouse lights up in several colors. No word on pricing or availability.

See more photos of the golf ball mouse over at Akihabara News.
