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
I could play 1
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
Not gonna be less time to haul a 5g bucket back 15 times from the pond to their vehicle, not like they’re able to park on the course
I disagree, the more ball touches the better 💪
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.
i’m glad i’m not the only one frustrated with that part lmaoo 😂 i would have used a shovel or something
@@justinz39sabres I would have used one of the rakes used the night before. But that is gonna scratch up the bed of the pick-up truck. Maybe keep a toy plastic rake on hand for this unless you just bring a tarp as someone else suggested earlier.
HE REMEMBERED HIS TH-cam PASSWORD
😂
Yeah he really did 😂
Lol
Yeah I seen the video w&n they dumped them there
You are funnny😅
I love seeing you young guys out there working hard. I do also agree with the many comments saying it’s painful to watch you work harder, not smarter. Streamline your process as soon as you can! :)
Glad to see you guys making videos again
Also same
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!
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
That's pretty awesome, guess grandpa was super nice
Well done lads I love this. I used to do this as a kid and it was like treasure hunting.
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
Thank you for posting again 🙏🙏
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.
Love how you guys are tired from rubbing balls 😂
Great Video! Thank you 🔥👏💪🫶
I am so happy you are making vids now!!!!
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.
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!!!!
Awesome? Good for you guys.
Have fun with them
Keep it up guys love the content from the golf ball man from the UK 🇬🇧 😊
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
Love the videos and the ambition, keep it up
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.
I love your work
Annette was working hard that night!
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
I would probably buy a golf ball cleaner like they have at every hole and replace the handle with a drill. Pop in 3 or 4 balls at once. Hit the drill. Clean.
We need more TH-cam content this was awesome
I cant wait for move videos you are the best
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
Get a range servant machine cleaner! Best purchase I made.
Nice work guys.
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!
Callaway with B on it is a belfry ball from the uk 🤙🏻
Great vid hope you guys keep posting
Glad y’all are making long videos again!
Thanks, more to come soon!
I remember going to the golf course when I was A kid in the early 80's and finding golf balls then cleaning and selling them.Brought back good old memories.
Looks like fun guys. I used to hunt golf balls when I was a kid, and can't resist even now when I am playing.
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!
That was like mining for golf balls. Very cool, I bet you could have gotten even more if you stayed a few more hours.
kinda a waste thousands more to be found but they didnt stay long enough
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
that is impressive! well done fellas
You advertise that you don't sell pond balls but then you get golf balls from a pond?
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.
Cool side hustle
minigolf golf ball is my fav
Nice video loved watching it
wow thats a good find
I feel super thanks for asking
You guys should try using clam digging rakes.
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.
Love it
Thank you!
I love your videos,keep doing what you're doing please
Appreciate it, more to come soon!
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 just looked at your site. I had no idea a used golf ball would sell for so much .
I like when u sho the rare golf balls I collect them too 😂 👍💎
You need to park on a slight hill and create some sort of funnel system to get them out of your truck
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.
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!
Any Pro V1s with the initials SB on it are mine!
Just found your yt channel and im already a big fan of your content. I hope you will make more vids in the future.
This is royal palms! I used to work at this course 😂
That’s like $3000 of golf balls❤😂
Need a Pt. 2
Since i'm Canadian i my favourite is the calaway canada ball 😅
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.
Pro v's for life, heaven!
use a clam rake next time you go. good job guys
profit wise, you are 'raking' it in
The pizza and sushi balls were my favorite.
Love to se new video ❤❤❤
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!
Wow that’s a lot of balls! Can you do a hunt in a creek?
I couldn't imagine finding golf balls at a golf course..
Interesting, and a bummer to know even a pristine golf course can hide a heap of garbage.
ngl this makes my kid self super happy lol as a kid i lived on 200 acers of farmland ( cows) and just sending them off into the distance was soo much fun ( even better with the aluminum bats )
I like the blue one
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
I must have played there recently.
Polar ball is used for the cannon you see at charity tournaments. They knuckle when shot. You can shoot them close to 400 yards
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
HES BACKKKKKKK
Yes Sir
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
The B is for Ballygowan spring water from Ireland
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 …
Dude you need an excavator and a big screener over a tub circulating water and you could just scoop deep and far out washing as you go. You could fill up a dump truck in an hour! 😂
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 have that exact same St. Andrew’s ball. They’re sold as replica/collector balls.
what are you doing with them after ?
I live on a golf course and love when interesting balls land in our yard. Less love when they hit our house.
“This one had canada leafs on it” kills me😂😂
I found a shine red ball and pink shine as well
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
You need to get you a radio flyer wagon with the big wooden sides on it in the off-road tires
You're moving them so many times you should have brought those buckets with you and have them in the back of the truck
Yes however that trash can and 8th way full prolly weighs at least 20-40 lbs
Those net fulls are closer to 2 to 3 hundred. A large bucket at the range usually has 100
Make a part 2 please
ever thought about making your own tailgate that has a funneling effect? might makie it easier on yal.. just a grated plated to allow water out but not the balls. then add maybe a 1x1 square tubing piece about 2ft long and angle them, so when you push the balls out it pushes them to the center and out. not all over the place
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.
Well done ill buy some
Thanks for the support.
Does this affect the performance of the golf balls? Staying in there for this long?
