    Love your enthusiasm for finding golf balls, i used to spend most of my playing time finding golf balls in the rough/bushes, much to the annoyance of my playing partners 😁. I see it the same as people throwing money on the floor. Happy Hunting!!!!

    Are the Prov1X left dash balls similar to the dot?

    • @muskratlinksgolf
      @muskratlinksgolf  8 місяців тому +1

      Mmmm not particularly, they both fill different niches that the normal V1 and V1x don't. The left dash is still in production and it's claim to fame is that it is the firmest premium ball so it is loved by many folks focused on max distance!

    I’m guessing a colored ball vs a white ball same brand make and model will be the same price? Like a neon prov1 and a white prov1 same year will both be same $2 price?

      Correct, as long as they are both standard retail offerings. Special editions or limited releases are a different story.

      @muskratlinksgolf  4 місяці тому

      @@cliffordbradford1392 I clean and inventory each one as you see, so I base all my information off of 3rd party ball resellers like eBay, lost golf balls, etc per dozen. Obviously if you price out a single ball it's more expensive, and if you price out 100balls bulk it's less expensive, so all my prices are based on current market value of each make, model, and condition per dozen. 😁

      Quality based on the typical industry standard for used balls, 5A, 4A, and 3A. Then I break that down into premium Urethane, Value Urethane, and Ionomer/Surlyn. Anything too old or damaged gets put in the Junk category which is essentially hit-away balls. Great question!

    • @muskratlinksgolf
      @muskratlinksgolf  8 місяців тому

      Market value per dozen on eBay sold listings, all appropriately graded using the standard industry grading system. Occasionally if a ball is rare I will take the single ball value since people normally buy one unit instead of dozens at a time. Great question!
