At Lake Golf Balls we spent over 10 years collecting, cleaning, sorting and grading golf balls. This guide will help you to see first hand
different golf ball grades and their condition. Grading is completed by our experienced warehouse staff who go through thousands of golf balls daily.
All our golf balls come in the following grades: Pearl, A, B, C, Refinished and Rejects:
| GOLF BALL GRADING GUIDE |
| PEARL |
|
Pearl Grade golf balls are the best available recycled golf balls that are virtually new and
have the feel and appearance of the ball that was played for a maximum of one hole. Also known as "Mint", "Perfect" or "AAA" these balls have a consistent colouring, glossy shine and have no major marks or scratches.
|
| A GRADE |
| A Grade golf balls are clean,
perfectly playable that may have minor scuffs or marks but nothing that would affect distance, trajectory or feel of the ball. Condition is similar to a golf ball that was played for a few holes.
Also known as "Near Mint", "Excellent" or "Near Perfect" these golf balls may have minor cosmetic blemishes but have no cuts nor creases.
Colour and sheen may be slightly inconsistent.
|
| B GRADE |
|
B Grade recycled golf balls may be cosmetically challenged and have moderate surface blemishes and minor to moderate ink marks.
None of the above blemishes should affect trajectory, distance or flight path. Cart paths, trees, and other small markings on the surface may be evident.
Also known as "Good", "3rd Grade" or simply "Used" performance-wise these balls are no different to Grade A or Pearl just not as nearly as clean looking.
|
| C GRADE |
|
C Grade golf balls offer the best value for money and ideal for practice rounds.
Moderate cosmetic blemishes and surface marks as well as discolourations are often present. The integrity and flight characteristics are not compromised.
These golf balls are similar to golf ball that was played for 9 to 18 holes and have plenty of live left in them.

| REFINISHED |
|
First, these balls are cleaned then stripped using industrial machines. After they are repainted and original logos are stamped on them.
Also known as "Refurbished" these balls offer a Grade A quality at discounted prices.
|
| REJECTS |
|
Also known as X-outs. These balls didn’t pass our stringent quality controls and didn’t qualify for any other grade. These have splits, cracks, deformed, paint worn off or damaged in any other ways.
Rejected balls are not suitable for play but may be suitable for practice shots over hazards and ponds whereby you may lose some in the process. These balls are priced at give away prices and we offer no guarantee nor returns.
