There have been many studies on the topic - and manufacturers do test their balls not just out the box but with thousands of hits ( like how the iron byron tests Golf Balls every year giving the My Golf Spy rankings ) - a Golf ball is only new until you hit it; and modern balls are more resilient than ever.

A Figure of 3% yardage loss on the drive does float around ( this happens even with brand new balls which have been sitting a long time ) - but a minimum of 50% savings means more time golfing, improving to reach better scores - an extra 3 yards less seldom so.

We use ultrasonic cleaning, eco-friendly cleaning products and an attentive hand wipe to ensure our balls are as clean and sanitary as they came in their original box - maybe with some marker or a scratch added too.

Some dirt permanently stains the ball and it will look dirty no matter how much scrubbing is applied - when this is lightly so and a ball is still in good condition it may end up in B else they often find themselves one way trip to the practice bin.

This is not dirt that will rub off - some organisms in Ponds also leave permanent coloring giving us some pretty funky balls.

You can check out our Grading Guide but in short

A Grade - Great for all levels of play, mint balls

B Grade - Balls with minor wear such as scuffing, discoloration - great still for casual play.

Practice - These balls are well worn , plain ugly ( though still very functional ) or a very old model. Great for practicing or situations where you'll lose most balls you hit.

Mixes mean the balls are non specific. A Callaway mix is a range of Models, Colors that Callaway produce, a Callaway Supersoft Matte Mix is Callaway Supersofts in mixed Colors .

When balls are in some way varied we call it a mix.

Our most popular mix is A Grade Mix - Where no two orders have the same mix of models and brands and is a great way to get familiar with different balls. The only thing in common in the A Grade Mix is that they're all A Grade mint balls.

We do not offer a warranty as these are used goods we did not ourselves manufacture though we did spend our time taking a chaos of dirty mixed up balls and turn them clearn, ordered and consistent.

We always offer 100% money back guarantee within 30 days of your order - just send them back and we're happy to either swap them out or give your money back. No questions asked.

Not currently as Golf Balls weight a lot making shipping overseas cost ineffective.
