See exactly how we grade every ball.
No machines. No guesswork. Every ball is inspected by hand, checked against strict criteria and sorted into one of three honest grades, so what lands on your doormat is exactly what you paid for.

The process
From lake to doorstep.
Four steps between a ball at the bottom of a Scottish loch and the sleeve on your kitchen counter.
01
Retrieval
Balls are recovered from UK lakes and courses by hand and by boat. No shortcuts, no scavenging. Sourced from real courses across the country.
02
Deep Clean
Every ball washed, dried and stripped of algae so we can see it as it truly is.
03
Hand Inspection
A grader examines each ball under bright light for brand, dimples, cover and marks.
04
Grade & Sort
Balls are sorted into three honest grades: A/Pearl, B and Practice. What you order is exactly what you get. Cross-checked by a second grader before packing.
The three grades
Honest grades. Honest prices.
One rule: if it doesn't match the grade on the tin, we swap it or refund it.
