Grading and Quality

Our Golf Ball Grades

Every ball we collect goes through a full cleaning and inspection process so you know exactly what you’re getting. After cleaning, each ball is carefully sorted into one of four grades:

Mint · Grade A · Grade B · Wave Goodbye


Mint (Like New)

Our best quality available.

  • Looks brand new
  • Bright white with original shine
  • No visible wear
  • May include small player markings or logos

If you want top performance and appearance, this is it.


Grade A

Great condition with light play.

  • Minor cosmetic imperfections
  • May include slight discoloration
  • Similar to a ball used for a few holes
  • May include player markings or logos

Excellent value with near-new performance.


Grade B

Noticeable wear, still fully playable.

  • Visible scuffs and surface blemishes
  • Some discoloration
  • Comparable to a ball after a full round
  • May include practice or X-OUT balls

Perfect for casual rounds or bulk value.


Wave Goodbye

Practice balls only.

  • Heavy wear, deep scuffs, or discoloration
  • May be cut, out-of-round, or heavily marked
  • Includes practice and X-OUT models

Best for hitting, practice, or anywhere you won’t get them back.


Why Our Grading Matters

We don’t guess—we inspect every ball by hand so you get consistent quality in every order.
