Where do you find good deals on used/practice balls

[rckwd]

Anyone have a place they get good deals on balls?

I actually lucked out this winter, I got ~3000 used range balls for 400$ from a friend who was selling all his range equipment and closing his range (a lot of work for very little $$$). I picked out all of the ones which looked to be in great shape (about 500), and im keeping the rest for our annual Canada day party at our cottage. 2500 balls to drive into the water should be a good time and make for some drunken laughs (and lost clubs in the ocean im sure).

The good ones are my practiced balls. We own a 4acre field in back of our home, so most of them will end up there, over and over. Not looking forward to picking them up.

Man that would be ablast hitting them balls into the ocean like that...seeing as I have never ben on the ocean .... LOL

I too have large pastures around my house; I keep one bush hogged real low to hit balls into. I would have a permanent back arch picking up balls if it werent for my shag bag. If you dont already have one I would advise you get one...they are a back saver.

I currently play with a few guys from UK and when I mentioned a shag bag one day they thought this was hilarious. One of them decided to get one and went to local Golf Galaxy. He couldn't find one so he asked for help but was afraid to say "Shag Bag" so he was describing it. When the salesperson said the term he and his wife busted out laughing.

I know this doesn't really answer the question, but I just rotate my used balls to the shag bag. I used to include balls found on the course, but really don't even have to do that because I just don't lose practice balls faster than I add new ones.

But then, I'm not hitting full shots in a field......primarily putting, chipping, and sand practice for me.

Its funny how fast you can loose 100 balls when you are hitting into a pasture. But then again its equally amazing how good the mower is at finding them.

I buy my practice balls from a local golf shop that sells them in potatoe sacks. If I remember correctly, I paid $35 for 750 balls. I just hit them out into a field or before a round if their are woods around.
