Used golf balls are also called recycled golf balls, experienced golf balls, reclaimed golf balls, or discount golf balls. The benefit of a used golf ball is of course, its price. They are usually found at a savings of sixty to eighty percent off the retail price. There are different types of used golf balls that are graded according to the usage of the golf ball.

The mint-quality used golf balls have the experience and feel of a ball that has been hit only once. This type of used golf ball is commonly known as a one hitter or one-hit wonder. These balls have a consistent color and glossy shine and perform as they would right out of the box. Next is the grade-A quality used golf ball; these are balls that just missed mint status, but still look like a new golf ball. These balls are perfect for any handicap level golfer as they perform just like you would expect from the golf brand of choice. There may be small player pen marks and very, very minor surface scratches on the golf ball. The next grade is the grade-B used golf balls that are shiny white with a small mark or fading in the printing and minor scuffing from the first owner. The balls are near perfect for play and are best for the high handicap or beginning golfer or for a golf course that has lots of hazards.

Next in line is the grade-C used golf ball that is great for practice or for that long shot over the water hazard. There may be moderate-sized play pen marks and small to moderate scuffs or scratches on them. However, they are clean and playable with signs of usage. There are also golf ball companies that supply refinished golf balls that are processed by stripping, stamping, painting, or clear-coating the golf ball. Like used golf balls, these golf balls are not endorsed by the original manufacturer, and so are not in their warranty. There are also premium used golf balls for those who enjoy driving the golf ball out of range. These are usually called range golf balls.
