you can usually go down to your local golf course or bum and they'll have a bucket of balls they found.  like 20 for 3$ at the ones here.

I usually don't play one hole, and walk through the woods and fins a dozen golf balls. Golf balls are way to expensive for the good ones.

If you're looking for shitty balls just go to a driving range, pay about 10$ and get a 10 gallon pale full of balls and walk away. Otherwise going swimming at a golf course can get you some nice balls.

Ced, your best bet will probably be ebay.

usually you can buy egg cartons full of legit Titleist balls that have been used or found. also, you can usually find deals on nice range balls from legit country clubs (that are name-brand balls)

i don't know but the other day i found 6 pro v1 and pro v1x's just walking around a pond on the outsides and a few other decent callaways and nike's as well. you can get them with your club usually. also my cousin plays pro v1's so i usually just go in his bag and take a sleeve and he has no clue.

as far as for you...ebay is probably the best bet.

the ball you use doesn't mean diddly

but if you roll that way slazengers are more impressive

haha you see the ball you use DOES mean diddly if you are decent enough to control it. the ball you use has a lot to do with how you play, especially when hitting onto the green.

if he doesnt know where to get balls in the first place i dont think hes putting backspin on the thing.

lets allude him and tell him to buy the best of the best because we dont know what we're talking about. sound good?

Have you ever hit a used ball that was outside during a winter?  Or spent awhile under water?  They blow nuts if youre decent at golf.  I used to have about 40 or 50 ProV1s, but after golfing a lot im down to a handful, sorry.

i'm sure he knows where to buy golf balls. hell if you ask a person who doesn't even play golf i'll bet $20 they would know a store that could sell you really nice golf balls. he wants golf balls for cheap. cause really, nobody likes paying $50 for a dozen golf balls.

well no shit if you play with quality things you can tell the difference.  it goes without saying

if you want a clutch, head-turning ball either get slazengers or callaway hxs.  or some black 8-ball ones like in tiger woods pga tour.

use free range eggs. you can get them by the dozen at a grocery store. some are better quality than others, i recommend grade A medium for golf.

A) What balls do you play?
B) Just because its a brand name doesnt mean its a good ball; i.e. Titleist DT Solo

http://3balls.com is where to go for cheap/ quality stuff
i think they have a bunch of over run pro v's for under $40 and NXT's for $20!!  A good ball that no one plays for pretty cheap is Wilson Staff TX4, theyre like $30 a dozen. BUT for the money you cant beat the logo over run NXT's.

Like someone else said, balls that have been sitting in the woods for a while are junk, doesnt matter what kind they are. Stop being Cheapy McCheap Pants and cough up a lil dough for a decent ball. Unless you suck at the game, in that case the ball should be your last concern, and you can get some top flites or Noodles and save a bunch of scratch.

I played a bunch with the pinnacle gold ls and I liked the fact that they were pretty good off teh tee. I want to TRY something that would still be good off the tee but better then gold ls (that I keep reading only good things about) on the greens.

I dont want to pay big money for really expensive brand new balls since my driver game is not quite perfect yet  and I dont feel like loosing a couple balls per round due to sending them in the woods or in the water. My iron game is pretty good so I was thinking about getting a few really good golfs balls for the short 4 and 3 where I can get on teh greeen   pretty easily by using my irons only.

I worked at a country club for three years mowing and such. I play golf regularly and use the balls I found. I still have bags  of pro v1's, Nike One's, Callaways.

or you could buy from me!!! the balls ill send you are basically brand new, and theyre pro v1s which are better than nike one blacks in my opinion. but ive got a few of those if you really want them. just figure......a 12 pack of brand new pro v1s cost like $50. ill send you 15 mint pro v1s for $35 shipped to your door. so if you change your mind let me know.
