# Top 5 Reasons Buying Recycled Golf Balls Makes Sense
- [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share)
Since this is Earth Week 2017, let’s talk about why you should think about using recycled golf balls. Before buying that brand-new box of Titleist Pro V1’s with the price tag reading $47.99, consider these environmental and economic reasons for buying used.
1. **Recycled Golf Balls Are Half The Price As New**
$47.99 for a new dozen of [Titleist Pro V1](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/pro-v1.html) golf balls or $23.99? Let’s do the math. $23.99 is 50% off $47.99, which means you can get twice the amount of recycled golf balls for the same price as new. Just think of what you could do with all the money you save!

1. **Reuse Rather Than Buy New To Cut Down On Production**
Golf balls are manufactured in top of the line factories using rubbers and plastics. I’m not a scientist, but I’m pretty sure the whole reduce, reuse, recycle mantra applies to golf balls.

1. **Same Performance As New**
If you can play the same ball and experience virtually [no loss of performance](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/whyused), and pay half as much as new, why wouldn’t you?
1. **You Could Be Playing With A Ball A Pro Used**
We retrieve [used golf balls](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls.html)from [premium golf courses](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/aboutus) used for PGA Tour events, such as the Golf Club of Houston (Shell Houston Open) and Austin Country Club (Dell Technologies Match Play), which are notorious for water shots. Sometimes, we even get our hands on tour practice balls used on the range for PGA Tour events.

1. **Because All Golf Balls Are Used After One Hit, Why Not Use One That Has Some Luck?**
Maybe someone hit a hole-in-one with a golf ball before hitting it into the water 3 holes later, or they hit 3 birdies in a row before unfortunately losing it. That ball and its mojo could end up in your hands, and help you shoot one of the lowest scores of your life.

This will be his third major back surgery since 2023. Zalatoris is only 30, far too young to have chronic back issues that have put his golf career on hold and potentially affect his quality of life.

For those of you who don’t recall Zokol, he played off and on in the PGA Tour from 1982 through to 2003. He won only once on the PGA event—though some players can’t even say that—the Greater Milwaukee Open in 1992.
