PEARL GRADE

Pearl Grade Golf Balls

Also known as: Mint

These balls have both the appearance and feel of a ball that has been hit only once! They are our best quality balls and as such are very hard to tell from new. Some balls may display a logo and/or a small player's ink mark. There are no Refinished, X-Out or Practice balls in the pack.


GRADE A

Grade A Golf Balls

Also known as: Grade 1 / Pearl 1 / Superb

These are excellent condition golf balls that just miss our Pearl Grade. They may contain minor marks, small scratches/scuffs or some very minor discolouration but on the whole will be in excellent condition. There are no Refinished, X-Out or Practice balls in the pack. These balls represent great value for money and are our No.1 seller.


GRADE B

Grade B Golf Balls

Also known as: Grade 2

These balls will have failed classification as Grade A due to excessive pen marks, larger scuffs or (in the majority of cases) heavier discolouration/fading. All the balls are still perfectly playable and ideal for a high handicapper or beginner. There are no Refinished balls however the odd X-Out or Practice ball may be present.


PRACTICE GRADE

Also known as: Shag / Hit-away

These balls are unbeatable value and are appropriate for range and green practice only. Balls marked "Refurbished", "Refinished", "Practice" or "X-Out" go in this grade, no matter their condition. All balls will be heavily worn but there are no split or out of round balls in the pack.
