$ .10C per ball

**Golf'nBiker** · October 17, 2009

So, lately as the weather has been rainy and just crappy to play, I've been pounding balls at several ranges. Here in Bama, or my A/O, it cost ten cents per ball. I think thats a lil much as I've gotton spoiled, I guess, with the (former) rates at my home course. So, whats everyone think is a fair price for a bucket????

Sounds good...I got 2 30 ball buckets today for $6., and at 'my' course it's a flat $5. for 50....which always amounts to 43 -47 balls. Anyway, ya gotta practice and it seems lately that the price range has gotton higher.

Unlimited range balls ftw.

I usually use about 20 buckets a month. Normal price is $3.50 for 45 which is about 8 cents per ball but I couldnt do without unlimited. 20 buckets a month would be $70 a month but then again I probably wouldn't hit that many so I wouldnt get as much practice.

My range balls are included in y membership fees, but at the range near work is about $.10 per ball. The size of bucket changes depending on the time of day and time for year. a Winter bucket is $5.50 for 80 balls, summer buckets i $5.50 for 50 balls

to be technical, .10C is 1/10 of a cent, or 1/1000 of a dollar. i think you mean 10C or $.10

You got me...I have whacked my pee pee bewteen a PW and a 9 iron. But ten CENTS per ball seems a bit high to me.

I am spoiled working in this business. unlimited range balls and my own real grass tee to hit off at the back of the range.

**kpaulhus** · October 18, 2009

yeah....in Jax there is only one really decent lighted range. $12 for 75 balls.....not too happy.

Thats ridiculous and also unbelievable. I guess if you can only hit range balls at nighttime you are limited heavily but $12 is steep.

**jdjanda** · October 18, 2009

I pay about 12 cents per ball for lighted, grass for Irons and mats for drivers.

Its $3 a bucket here in illinois, and you get about 35 balls in a bucket, I usually will hit 3 buckets in a practice session, so about $9 for a little over 100 balls or about 9 cents a ball.

**kennay92** · October 18, 2009

thats what my range did, they bumped up all their bucket prices by like 2 or 3 dollars saying because they got new range balls, the price is now higher. Well yes they got new range balls, but in every bucket ill maybe get 5-10 of the new ones out of my 100-110 ball bucket. Well if im now paying the higher price for new range balls, i expect every single ball i hit to be a new one.

also in every bucket there are balls that are chopped up, so old they have no dimples, or have sides shaved off/or bent in.

Depends on the range here. On the low end it's about $0.11 per ball. High end it's $0.16. The higher end places have nicer heated ranges.

My range is a pretty decent place, lighted at night, clean mats, automatic ball dispensers, brand new balls, etc. The price went up $1/bucket when they installed the dispensers and bought new balls recently, so it is $10/100 balls now. However on Mondays, they have a buy 2 buckets get 1 bucket free deal.

They give you tokens for your balls as you get them from a machine (2 tokens = 1 full 100 ball bucket) and you can use the tokens any day of the week. Heck, sometimes I'll go in on a Monday just to buy tokens and use them later in the week. Comes out to $0.067 per ball. Not bad for a nice range with plenty of mats, multiple distance targets, pitching targets, etc. Also has an immaculate and large putting green and a pretty challenging, sloped chipping area. I love the place.

Daaaammmnnnnnn!!!

Oh weak. My range got "new balls" and they have kids in the ball shack sorting out the old ones and we get 100% new balls in our buckets.
