If you are a beginner to golf or just frugal like me, you already know that losing a 3 dollar golf ball is easy and often. This used to really bother me a lot. Until I decided that discount golf balls could be had and they worked just fine. Have you found that to be true?
I love to receive golf balls as gifts and I got plenty when I first started golfing. As a beginner golf person, I had so many teachers I didn't know who to listen to. One person would tell me the golf ball is the most important thing. "Buy a really good golf ball and you will learn quicker", they would say. Others would say that the golf ball brand made no difference and told me to just get the cheapest balls I could find. I actually thought that made sense, but I have decided that it is really somewhere in between.
As a new golfer or a beginner golfer, I got advice form everyone from my friends, to those who I was forced to play with on the golf course. ( those were some of the worst teaching sessions I ever had. I can't stand to be taught by a stranger when I didn't ask for it). Anyway, I did find that a good quality golf ball was very important.
Buying good quality golf balls became a sport for me. I don't like to pay full price you see. So I became really good at locating golf ball deals and here is the secret. Ebay! Yes Ebay has the best deals on discount golf balls. You can buy a dozen used golf balls and try the brand out without paying the huge retail price. I found that I do love Titleist Pro V1 but I can't stand the thought of paying full price for them. I learned I could buy them used at a discount of at least 50%. I do buy them now and use them. I don't worry too much about losing them now either, since I know that I didn't pay full price.
Check out all the great deal on this site for golf balls and you will see what I mean. No matter what brand you love, you will find it here at a great price.
