    glasses work ok, but if you really want to clean house at your local course, try a UV light at night. I went out 3 times to two different courses in the fall of 2020, must have found over 100 balls looking near water, high brush and rough. Best $10 on Amazon I ever spent. Just don't get caught trespassing lol

  • @mendhamgolf
    @mendhamgolf Před 3 lety +2

    Matt, I thought you were kidding when you teed off with these glasses. They are not for normal use. They should be used when only searching for a ball. I have an older pair of these and they do work well. They work much better when the sun is out as the lenses are tinted in such a way that it makes the golf ball appear brighter with the sunlight reflecting off of it. They work well when a golfer is searching for a ball in deep rough or in the fall months when there are leaves on the ground. As long as some part of a golf ball is visable, these are pretty good. They aren't one hundred percent, but they will save you a ball or two if you're someone who has trouble hitting the fairway.

    I wonder how they do when the grass is green. I would think that’s a bigger contrast.

  • @chrish6412
    @chrish6412 Před 3 lety +1

    I would think that any filter that adds or eliminates a color will result in a contrast (adding blue to green would make white "pop" more.) However, if the background colosr is similar to the color of the object (let's say white ball in dry beige grass on the edge of the rough), probably not going to work. For a few dollars (not $20) something that helps find it in the fairway or on the edge might help (especially when trying to keep the pace of play).

  • @strongisland7015
    @strongisland7015 Před 3 lety

    I’ve had ball finding glasses for a long time. I rarely pull them out, the white does pop on sunny days which makes it easier to find your ball. However, on bright sunny days, the leaves that are size of a ball will also pop. I guess from the waxy part on them. So then it becomes very difficult to see what is a ball and what is not. In the end, I will throw them on when I know I’m in play but can’t seem to spot it to try and speed up play. Any little bit helps.

  • @markdelej

    I’ve had a pair for a few years. I would never try to hit with them on. If it’s really Sunny outside, the ball will glow. Well it does with mine. But, the shade really makes a difference.

    I purchased a similar pair of blue glasses and never hit with them on. The ball definitely stands out when everything is green, however, if the sun is shining other objects like leaves pop out too. They are worth $20 though.

    Thanks for your ball finding glasses. I was sure hoping they would really work coz I lose a lot of balls - maybe I need to find a dog that would find them. haha. It was a funny video. It's like so many of the bogus golf training aids. At least they were not a $100 bucks.

  • @billjordan1173
    @billjordan1173 Před 3 lety

    My guess is they are for finding the ball on sunny days when the glare makes it very difficult (like in winter when the sun is low in the sky). Guessing they wouldn't work any better than regular sunglasses, but that's when you'd really have to test them.

  • @andrewcpham

  • @MO-ss7qt
    @MO-ss7qt Před 3 lety

    I have a set in my bag. Pull them out maybe 2 or 3 times a year. You wind up in really tall grass, pickle weed or bushes, it definitely helps. But that's all they're for, finding a ball you can't find otherwise. They're not xray-vision or radar and beyond about 10 yards, they're worthless. Anytime I put them on and peer into bushes, I always find a ball. Just not always mine.

  • @michael2782

  • @stormchaser300
    @stormchaser300 Před 2 lety

    You could always buy a powerful UV torch with yellow goggles for UV protection for the eyes they will find golf balls. We used to find heaps when we were kids the only drawback is that they only work at night.
    But we did end up with a bucket full of golf balls.

  • @cz1mmt
    @cz1mmt Před 3 lety

    Where I live courses tend to have higher grass outside the fairways. It can take 4 players a little time to find one ball. The blue glasses really work. In taller grass. I didn't see any turf higher than a ball in this video.

  • @darrelkopsa7143
    @darrelkopsa7143 Před 3 lety +1

    I can see the possibility of the blue darkening the background to emphaasize the white, but cloudy weather would hurt the process. I do know that good polarized sunglasses hurt your chances of finding your ball because they cut the glare normally reflected off the ball. And at our course, if you try the "hot" yellow balls during dandelion season, make some deal with your buddies for dropping for free in the general area where it landed!!!

    • @chrish6412
      @chrish6412 Před 3 lety +1

      Very true -- I often look for the ball by taking off my UV sunglasses (when I know I'm in the vicinity and the ball is not easily spotted) with more success. Even in the fairway (especially a wide area) it's easy to overlook (miss) the ball when wearing UV's

    Best times to use meant to be at twighlight, but perfect time is pitch black. People that look for balls to resell them get good results..

Mine work very well in the edge woods line, i the woods, deep rough, in especially in the leaves of fall here in Ohio etc. Unless the ball is really under something 95-100 percent covered I have found them helpful. My partners use them also as I just leave them in the cart for any one to grab, since a few of the guys on the leagues have gotten them after using mine,

    Ball finding gadgets will never be a thing due to the fact ball manufacturers don't want u to find ur ball so u buy more. I mean surely a smaller chip version of a top golf ball could be made to use bluetooth to ping off. So if ur within 20-30 yards an app on your phone will guide you too it etc
