Call me cheap but...

I just bought 74 Nike one Tour Practice balls for $50 off the bay. To my surprise as well was a Trevor Immelman ball. These are the ones the pros hit before the round and most of them look un-hit. I was hoping for a Tiger ball but I was not as fortunate.

I have found no difference between these and retail and better yet, the practice logo is pretty small.

I was thinking of doing this but was skeptical about the ball condition. I've mainly played refurb lake balls over the last few years cos I cant pay for brand new ones, and the Callaways HX Blacks were a massive dissapointment - they cover was really clicky and hard.

Saw some "Practice Pro-V1s" and was thinking of getting them, but am worried they would be a bit crappy like the lake balls.

Are they good enough to play or are you just going to use them to practice with?

I have played the Pro V1 Practice balls and they work great. I cann't tell a difference between the practice and the real 1's. Alot of the time they become practice balls because there may be a imperfection to the logo and silly stuff such as that.

Here is a pic. I literally opened up the bag grabbed four and took a picture, so I did not pick out "good ones" They are all in unbelievable shape. They guy on the bay was evansgolf, I don't believe he has anything up now, but I was amazed at the quality. I'm sure any other lot that was taken after a tourney from the range would be in the same shape. You figure these balls get hit about 4 times max!

And yes I have a long haired cat...
