How We Grade

Golf Balls sold on this website are pre-owned, cleaned and sanitized to ensure quality. Our commitment is to save golfers money. Below is how we grade them:

Mint (A-Grade or Pearl)

  • Like-new condition; looks and feels like it was barely played.
  • No scuffs, marks, or discoloration.
  • Logos and manufacturer markings are intact.
  • Suitable for all levels of play, including tournament use.

Near Mint (A-Grade or Grade 1)

  • Slight signs of use but still in excellent condition.
  • May have minor cosmetic blemishes, such as small scuffs or slight discoloration.
  • Logos and markings are still in good shape.
  • Performs close to a new ball, making it a good choice for casual and competitive play.

Grade A (Good or Grade 2)

  • Noticeable cosmetic imperfections, such as scuffs, discoloration, or small scratches.
  • May have faded markings or player pen marks.
  • Performance is still very close to new, but appearance is slightly affected.
  • Ideal for practice or casual rounds.

Grade B (Practice or Grade 3)

  • More visible wear, including scuffs, discoloration, and moderate surface damage.
  • Logos and markings may be significantly faded.
  • May have minor cuts or blemishes but still playable.
  • Best for practice, driving range use, or casual rounds where performance is less critical.
