I live right next to a patch of forest that catches all the slices off the tee of the hole I live on. This was the result of 20 minutes of searching. Turns out these golfers love their Callway Supersofts and Titleist ProV1s

Peep the za socks
That might be my Vice shade ball in the lower-right… Helluva ball though
As long as the trees catch the slices and not your house
Do the free golf balls even out the window repairs/insurance deductibles?
You should go out in the middle of the night with a headlamp and scour the course. My buddies do that – haven’t paid for balls in 7 years.
not 1 person playing a kirkland sig?!? you might be in a costco desert wowie
I’m always looking for Nike balls since they don’t make them anymore. I think it was the vapor black and the one tour that were really good balls.
I have like 15′ of grass before the cart path, still get a nice collection, but nearly all of them are crap.
So Wilson Staffs fly straighter?
Listening to any balls get clapped all day sounds like a good time to few
Does it not drive you crazy to hear the face of a driver every few minutes?
Grew up on a golf course and we regularly perused the trees, creeks and ponds. Made for fun weekend evenings after the course closed. We’d throw everything we found into a bucket, get them cleaned up and then into the egg cartons to sell the following morning.
If you have any kids I would highly recommend you do the same. It’s a great memory of mine and I always buy golf balls from kids selling them. Whether they have my ball or not.

Got me a house 125 out from the Green – par 5
Only 2 broken windows when we bought the house!
A lot more people play Callaway’s than I’d have thought.
Look as though the Callaway and Titleist balls are the most errant. 🙂
My sister lives in the slice zone, she brings me tons of golf balls.
I lived on a dog leg par five. Our house was right where long hitters would try to cut the corner. OMFG…all day long balls would hit our house. People would walk all over our back yard…even with a fence. We end up selling during a winter month when no golfers were visible wandering around the property.
People that use orange golfballs are better golfers!😂
More Slazenger balls than Srixons ??
I am amazed at how many ProV1s I find at my course. (But also a lot of Nitros–and what is it with people who play with range balls?)
I don’t know what it is about hunting for golf balls. It’s like an Easter Egg hunt for adults. One of my favorite pastimes.
Last game I played something like the 11th hole was RIGHT in between a couple of houses. They had a cooler full of balls by their fence with a little money box. $1 per ball. Grabbed me a few and gave them a 20.
Who the fuck is still playing Nike’ balls?
This basically matched my found ball metrics when I went through them a few months back.
I average 10-12 egg cartons of balls per year
That’s nothing

This is an old pic. Times this by 10 and that’s where I’m at. And I’m constantly selling them. It’s nuts but a fun hustle
In exchange for monthly dues, sure!
There was a house on the 2nd hole at my old course that, like clockwork either myself or someone in my group would hit every single time we played. I don’t think we ever broke a window but we certainly dented their siding
I would be more scared of mowing my back lawn and taking a golf ball to the dome.
is this evidence that the Vice ball is more likely to find the fairway or that people who buy vice balls are better golfers?
Keep the pinnacles and Wilson, toss everything else
My childhood home is down the street from a course that abuts a vineyard. The vineyard sells used golf balls. They claim the golf balls paid for the entirety of one of their children’s college fund
I walk so I find random golf balls w/o really looking for them. I swear that I find more Callaways than any other ball. My preference is Vice, and as illustrated in your picture, there are not many of them to be found. Luckily (for him) my dad is a big Callaway fan, so he has a good supply now lol.
Bad golfers like super soft because of the soft feel. A lot of golfers think prov1s will make their game better but they don’t and should probably play super softs.
We stayed in a townhome on the left side of a par 5 fairway for about a year. Me(13) and my brother(15) didn’t pay for golf balls for the next, like, 3 years. Although you couldn’t really enjoy the patio during the daytime lol.
It’s either a ton of free balls or replacing windows a few times a year
That assortment of balls says this is not a country club
We have people on our course that make an absolute killing selling errant tee shots used balls. I always grab a dozen when they’re out there. Sells a dozen gently used ProVs for $12.
I find a lot of balls in the woods and the edges of the ponds on my home course. Next year maybe I’ll track what I find. I’m not surprised by the distribution here – Callaways, then Titleist, then everybody else. At my course I think I might have found more Titleists than Callaways but it would be really close. I would say I find more Top Flites than Pinnacles.
Saturday 2 of my playing partners pulled their tee shots left into the junk on #12 which is also left of the #11 tee shot. I went in for maybe 90 seconds to help them look and walked out with 11 balls – 4 Titleist, 2 Callaway, 1 Bridgestone, 1 Srixon, 1 Top Flite, 1 Vice, and most surprising 1 Precept. I kept the 2 Pro V1s and the Srixon Z Star and left the rest in a pile next to the cart path.
