I bought 48 MINT condition Callaway HX Blue for $49. I'm not sure if this was a smart thing to do but after previous playing with this ball I just loved it. Anyone else play/buy used balls?

I bought a bunch of used B330's and HX Tours for my shag bag and will ocassionally use them for practice rounds but I always use a new ball for tournaments or rounds with money

Generally I don't buy used balls but I've got no qualms about putting a ball I've used previously in play. I consider any of my used balls as old friends, having survived water, rough, and oil can wedges to earn another day in the sun.

And sometimes, they deserve a good ol' whack into the middle of the lake or a bunch of trees.

Unfortunately, most of the time they don't deserve a good whack into the trees or water but I do it anyway because I'm so generous, er, erratic.

    • Wordle 1,802 4/6* ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛🟧⬛⬛⬛ 🟧🟧🟧⬛🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 Just realized I forgot to play yesterday!
    • Day 59: just a short bit of mirror work and foam balls. Working on the leg stuff throughout the swing. 
    • Day 601 - 2026-05-25 Short-ish day with only some later Skillest lessons, so I stayed after and got some swings in. GEARS Hybrid was set up for a lefty, so… not that. 🙂 
    • Day 21, May 25.  Hit "the whole bucket" as practice today after reviewing my Skillest lesson.  I think something crept into my swing last week that wasn't in the lesson, so I went back to the lesson and renewed my focus.  Each ball was a minute or so, 2-3 slow rehearsal backswings and checking the mirror for how far back I was going. "The whole bucket" means every ball I have in the bin at my indoor practice room;  I counted when I put them back, that's six dozen plus six total.  That is probably more full swings than I took over the weekend (excluding range warm-ups) in two rounds!  But these were all with a 6-iron.
    • Day 265 5-25 Hit some balls just to see where i was, no "thoughts' except getting arms in front. Did some recording where i focused on getting chest through and arms in front.
