How Many Golf Balls do You Need?

[Dunit507]

I have never kept track or even as much as attempted to. A couple years ago, I got 3 dozen for Xmas and I didn’t buy a box until August. So I would estimate 4-5 dozen a year, on a guess. Also depends on where I’m playing. If I spend more time visiting courses that I don’t know all that well, I’m going to lose more than I will playing at my normal course.

Last April 2022 i bought a 96 count bucket of used Srixons from LGB.  Earlier this month, I put the last dozen or so balls from that bucket into my bag.  I just ordered another bucket.  I usually play between 1 and 4 times a week depending on a number of factors.  So I guess about 80 balls/year.  So about 7 dozen...

I never count but I can tell you, it is way too many.  If I finish 9 holes with the same ball I started it is a good sign.  My wife always buys me a few dozen for Christmas each year and they never make it to next Christmas.  I buy in bulk and stay away from the Pro-Vs and other high-end balls.
