Need help in reading foreign language

Last year playing golf I found a ball with Oriental writing on it.
I was wondering if someone could tell me what it says or if you knew someone that could read it.
Thanks

Dang, we need that app that will translate signs/words using the phone camera. Ahhh "google translate" from Play Store loaded - it indicated something along the line of: A FAST SESSION or bla bla MUSIC SESSION

LOL well it tried. :)

It could translate to Hole in one? Or a golf ball manufacturers name.

Blue you got me thinking. In small print is written FOO - KING - LONG and yes that's a manufacturer name.
Here it is.

Maybe those symbols are the same thing but only in Japanese ?
Here's the warning label for it.

Are you on the WRX golf forum ? Because that one was used on that site when I asked for help there also.
