just wanted to put a plug in for this site as I've used it recently and been THRILLED with their stuff. I searched for deals on golf balls on Amazon.com and came upon this site. Golfballnut.com is a used golf ball site much like lostgolfballs.com. The difference is that this site does not absolutely RIP YOU OFF with $9 shipping charges on 12 golf balls. I ordered a dozen Bridgestone B330Rx balls from them, listed as "very good" condition for $19 (this is like the third ranking down on their site which goes from New, Mint, Near Mint, then very good). These balls were FLAWLESS. It was rare even to find a single small imperfection on any of them. With shipping the total price tag was $23...I was so happy that I ordered a second dozen from them to stock up. I recommend this site to anyone looking for a deal on golf balls. My experience with them has been amazing.

Im new to buying used golf balls and think I am going to buy a bunch of different balls to test out for the spring, and my question is what are the different types?

Are recycled and refurbished the same - and are these the balls where a new finish is put on.

Should I just get balls that are - Used mint = barely used.



I just want balls that are - Barely used -Cleaned - Put in a box!

Refurbished = repainted (stay away)
Recycled = used & lost, 3-4 grades of use

I don't think any of the used golf ball places box their balls - when I've ordered, they've come in a plastic bag inside a shipping box.

I've used Lostgolfballs.com a few times and have been very happy with the quality of balls I received (I typically order the 5A balls). I wasn't ever charged excessive shipping - maybe I caught a deal or something?

Well I live in California and every time I've ordered from them (lostgolfballs) the standard shipping has been almost $10. Absolutely ludicrous when you consider that the balls come via USPS in their smallest standard shipping box available. One weekend if you're bored go down to the P.O. and put 12 balls in one of those boxes then take it to the counter and ask to mail them...it's not close to $10. Golf Ball Nut has as good if not better (in my experience, their "very good" quality is exactly the same as the AAAA balls that I got from lostgolfballs) balls with the most reasonable shipping I've seen...and they get to me in no more than 2-3 business days. Awesome!

I've bought from GBN before and they are great... the reason I choose them over LGB is that the shipping is significantly cheaper. Their quality is excellent... even "very good" balls were nearly perfect.

Maybe this thread should be moved to the "Balls" sub-forum.

I havent' used GBN yet but I'll check them out. In regards to lostgolfballs.com, I have used them multiple times and they almost always have free shipping on orders $75 and up so, I just buy at least $75 worth of balls from them.

Thanks for your business and all of the kind words about our website.  We pride ourselves on offering the highest quality used golf balls on the internet.  Just chiming in because we launched a completely redesigned website earlier this morning.  Please visit www.golfballnut.com and let us know what you think.  In addition to the new design, we've rolled out live inventory (we'll let you know in the ball grade drop down field if we have less than 10 of the item left in stock), several new products, and a new customer referral program to reward our loyal customers for referring friends and family.  Please check back to the site often and remember to sign-up for our newsletter at the bottom homepage as we'll be rolling out several new product lines this year.  Happy golfing!

Seems like a good site. I prefer LostGolfBalls because their website is better, they have more variety, and (MOST IMPORTANTLY) the volume discounts...100/50 ball buckets at unbeatable prices. I play a ball (TaylorMade TP Black LDP) that's being phased out by its manufacturer, and so I really depend on these sites.

    • I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
    • Day 28: 2026.01.30 Managed to make time for a few swings out back today. Need a proper bit of range time this weekend.
    • Day 30, 1/30.  Six minutes this morning hitting a few more range balls, indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Did this before leaving the house.

    • Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
