Mounted the tee in a piece of white styrofoam and lit with one 60 watt lamp. The styrofoam naturally reflected the light up and worked as a fill on the bottom of the ball.
I adjusted levels, applied unsharpen mask and dust and scratch filter, converted to greyscale, cropped and added border.

Nice lighting. Maybe a bit hot in the upper left, but there are so many shades of light that it seems very balanced to me. Wonder how others view the texture? Less than two weeks until I travel to warm weather for a week of golf....woops, got off topic there, but your photo caused it!
Excellently lit, really produces the texture, both the pits and the plasticity of the ball, and what appears to be a wooden tee. Very simple, though the areas of shading that really might appeal to me are quite small, and perhaps the shade too dark for a a wow factor - or too sudden maybe: constrained mid-tones.
