Fellow reseller here. Learned something about a different resale market.
Tip: the credo that has paid off the most for me in resale: "touch each item as few times as possible." This is meant to save time. Organize while you clean instead of making it a separate step. Even better if grab like 30 5g buckets and organize from the pond. Make these the same container you fill with the water/bleach mix. So much time burned with unnecessary transfers/steps. Less time = more money per hour.
I used to be a furniture mover and we had a similar rule to make sure we could always get it done in a day. "Never pick something up twice if you don't have to" from the house straight to the truck in the stack. Organizing inside the truck can kill the whole day
So many balls! I could probably play like 3 rounds of golf with all those 😂
if you didn't put "of golf" there it would of been OVER for you
@@youraveragescot💀
bro is capping
HE REMEMBERED HIS CZcams PASSWORD
😂
Yeah he really did 😂
Lol
Yeah I seen the video w&n they dumped them there
You are funnny😅
Glad to see you guys making videos again
Also same
8:30 I feel like this part could be a lot faster/easier if ya'll put a tarp on the bottom of the truck bed.
Started watching your videos early this summer and because of you guys I also began golf ball hunting on the side and reselling a huge amount of them. Thank you for inspiring me a bit to do a side hustle glad to see you guys drop a new video!
Well done lads I love this. I used to do this as a kid and it was like treasure hunting.
That sure was one mammoth task ❤but you both did an orsome job 👌.
Loved the box at the end with the cool and rare balls.
Greetings from England 🇬🇧 Simon and Beth ❤❤❤
The St Andews and Palmer balls will be elastic bands inside, they are freaky when you but one in half. As a kid all the balls were like that and they split a lot more often in play, they would bulge out on one side, disintegrate off the tee etc.
This is my first time seeing you guys hopefully y’all had fun this is something I am really interested in y’all did a great job can’t wait to see what y’all do when it comes to a related video.
Thank you for posting again 🙏🙏
Great Video! Thank you 🔥👏💪🫶
When i was a kid, age 13-16ish, my parents summer camp was course membership for me, and when they drained the hazards i would fill my bag, ended up with a pretty decent collection of oddity balls
Keep it up guys love the content from the golf ball man from the UK 🇬🇧 😊
Please do more videos like this.. You guys are the reason that I have a job right now seeking and finding mint golf balls to sell
Will do!
Annette was working hard that night!
I did the same thing once with my dad, rip, in Wayland Massachusetts. We didn't have enough containers to carry the balls out. It was mind boggling
Awesome? Good for you guys.
Have fun with them
I am so happy you are making vids now!!!!
That was like mining for golf balls. Very cool, I bet you could have gotten even more if you stayed a few more hours.
We need more CZcams content this was awesome
Some of my best top shelf balls came out of ponds that were emptied for cleaning. If you ever see any balls laying around without an owner around check out the make and model of it. Could be a damn good ball.
Callaway with B on it is a belfry ball from the uk 🤙🏻
Get a range servant machine cleaner! Best purchase I made.
Nice work guys.
Love how you guys are tired from rubbing balls 😂
Love the videos and the ambition, keep it up
Glad y’all are making long videos again!
Thanks, more to come soon!
Great vid hope you guys keep posting
I met a guy at a Bob Evan’s countertop many years ago. Started talking to him and it turned out he was diver that would retrieve golf balls out of lakes at golf courses. So, I made a deal with him, I would buy every golf ball he brought me for $.10 a piece. I was buying them by the thousands. I started selling them in batches of 100 on eBay. Made okay money, but the dollars/hour made it not lucrative enough to continue the effort. Was a fun experience though. Keep it up boys, you never know where this will lead you!
Years ago when I was young, I used to collect golf balls and what we used to clean them we found a old concrete mixer, a portable one and we put some rubber brushes in it. If I remember right, we use like the big broom brushes and of course we put our chemicals in there to clean themand we could do thousands of them at a time and they came out very very good. Just thought I’d put that at ya.
it would be cool in videos like this to see a box of all the pro v1's you found. Just separating white and yellow is cool but it could be cooler imo by sorting out and showing the volume of quality balls you found.
You need to move the red spacers on the garbage can wheels to the inside. Figured it out myself after the can kept tipping over. It will give you more stability.
Great job. In Oct 2023 I was in a tournament with my work in NC USA. My job gave me 3 balls for the day, my boss gave me 3 more balls! Sweet. *** I found 15 more balls during the game *** . I had by own balls in my bag, so I was not worried of running out of balls.
Thank you.
I have been watching your videos since your first video came out and to gave me the idea to start for my own and not this summer i earned about 600 dollars.
I am from Norway so its not so many golfplayers but still thank you so much
That's awesome, glad to hear it!
this brings back memories, used to sneak onto the golf course in the morning with my gandpa when i was a kid and bring home golfballs that we would find in bushes, counted them after he died we had around 700 of them
great job, get yourself a pair of work gloves when pulling through all that stuff.. Never know sharp pieces of glass or plastic that will ruin your night. Keep it up!!!!
i just looked at your site. I had no idea a used golf ball would sell for so much .
If you line the truck bed with a tarp it will be easy to fold up the corners and pull tarp to funnel into tubs
I love your work
Just found your yt channel and im already a big fan of your content. I hope you will make more vids in the future.
I cant wait for move videos you are the best
I love your guys videos can’t wait for more, I do stuff just like you guys sometimes with my friends, I am 12 years old
I love how he has a hat on in the middle of the night
I feel super thanks for asking
You need to park on a slight hill and create some sort of funnel system to get them out of your truck
Crazy amount of golf balls.
My grandma passed in 2015, golfing still lives on in me. As a former pizza chef that made fox 2 news I would totally love to have that pizza ball!!! Let me know what I gotta do to get it!
minigolf golf ball is my fav
I love your videos,keep doing what you're doing please
Appreciate it, more to come soon!
Cool side hustle
This is pretty cool, i know the video is old but somethings i would suggest if you got the chance to do something similar again would be, a sand flea rake and depending on budget and how much you plan to invest in this bussiness, a shaker Screener Sieve Machine or a couple of cheap 30L ultra sonic cleaners.
I like when u sho the rare golf balls I collect them too 😂 👍💎
You should pick up a little giant bedding fork to sift the balls. It’s like 25 bucks would make it way easier. It’s what you use to pick turds out of a horse stall but it should do the trick
Since i'm Canadian i my favourite is the calaway canada ball 😅
You guys should try using clam digging rakes.
My daughter has just started a golf ball collecting business...so will definitely share this channel with her. When you clean the balls, I notice you soak them in water and some bleach and then clean them with a cloth....do you also clean off any custom markings that have been written on a ball (initials etc) with like a magic marker or texta? If so, I would be curious to know what you use to get these markings off because simply soaking them in water with bleach them cleaning with a rag doesn't seem to remove these markings. Thanks
Get an old washing machine and fill it with couple of towels and some couple caps of bleach or de greaser dump some balls in and start the wash YW
I couldn't imagine finding golf balls at a golf course..
Wow that’s a lot of balls! Can you do a hunt in a creek?
Nice video loved watching it
wow thats a good find
This is royal palms! I used to work at this course 😂
So it seems like you could do less work if you consolidated your movements. Why not sort as you are washing each one by hand and putting them in matching piles? Seems like doubling up your work load.
I am also surprised you don’t use a tarp or 10. I guess maybe that is a Midwest and Northern thing with leaves and in general. 😂
Awesome channel
Those balls are so beyond ruined if they were in a lake, especially one that dried up and trapped all them in the mud..
I don’t golf so it may be a stupid question but I’m genuinely curious, why would they be ruined? I could see the sun possibly damaging the, over time if out of the water but other than that I’d think they’d be fine for the most part.
Water can break down the smooth outer coating of the ball making it squish more. Also water can seep into the balls. If your only a beginner golfer there probably fine, but if your more experienced you'll want new balls.
Lakeballs are a big business, as long as they are specifically advertised as lakeballs everyone knows what they are getting.
@@Debbiebabe69 if people want to play with less than optimal performance balls then go ahead! I was just commenting to let people know that balls found in those conditions are generally not in the best shape of their lives
profit wise, you are 'raking' it in
With this many golf balls from a pond, are they still good quality even after cleaning? I started getting some from the pond and alot are bubbled up on the outside …
Interesting, and a bummer to know even a pristine golf course can hide a heap of garbage.
Need a Pt. 2
Love it
Thank you!
Any Pro V1s with the initials SB on it are mine!
Love this vid
the algorithm leads me to such random videos
Pro v's for life, heaven!
Polar ball is used for the cannon you see at charity tournaments. They knuckle when shot. You can shoot them close to 400 yards
You advertise that you don't sell pond balls but then you get golf balls from a pond?
use a clam rake next time you go. good job guys
The pizza and sushi balls were my favorite.
That’s like $3000 of golf balls❤😂
i think i saw you mention the danger of snakes once, so i was wondering why not bring one of those ballpickers with the long pipe mechanism and bag to store the balls in?
I was at a driving range one day and got that exact color of putt putt ball out of the dispenser, it’s still in my bag
I must have played there recently.
Love to se new video ❤❤❤
what are you doing with them after ?
I like the blue one
Make a part 2 please
did you gonna go back when the middle dried more?
Your voice is so chill. Where can I buy golf balls?
Appreciate it, and you can go golfreuseshop.com to buy some golf balls but I also linked our website in the description of this video.
@@golfreuseare you going to start posting a lot cause your vids are very entertaining and enjoyable
You found a St Andrew's ball that might actually be from St Andrew's in Scotland, dude. I don't care to know, but I hope you know of St Andrew's.
I have that exact same St. Andrew’s ball. They’re sold as replica/collector balls.
If you lay a tarp down before putting the balls in the truck bed, you can collect the water and soap like a bucket when you're at the carwash and clean the balls like a bath tub, not a shower.
Those net fulls are closer to 2 to 3 hundred. A large bucket at the range usually has 100
did you go back and get the rest?
I’m interested in doing this in my area, how do you approach the course? Assuming you sell the balls, do you offer the course a cut?
I don't know many golfers that want to hit water-logged balls from the bottom of a lake. Cool cleanup project but those balls gonna feel like a rock.
Lots of recreational golfers have no idea of the different types of balls they play as long as they’re fairly new..
@@Tom-ok2rh This has nothing to do with the brand or the model. When a ball sits in the mud or under-water, it soaks up a bunch of water.
A golf ball is supposed to weigh 1.62 ounces. When they sit in the water for too long their weight can balloon up over 2 ounces.
They can even start growing mold inside which will eat and degrade the rubber core. They feel awful off of the club.
If you handed me two identical looking balls, but one is waterlogged, I can probably tell you which is which just by feeling the weight.
I can DEFINITELY tell you which is which once I hit them both. A water-logged ball has a dull "thunk" or "thud" sound instead of the "crack" of a fresh ball.
we are doing exactly what you guys are doing but in austrails
HES BACKKKKKKK
Yes Sir
How do you guys convince the course I live on one but I’ve never ask them to go on what’s the key
Note to self find dried up ponds when we don’t get rain in FL
Are they waterlogged?
You could use a shop vac fastened to the top of your trash can to suck them back into it after washing
