golf balls x-outs


What is the difference between regular golf balls and X-Out balls?

I bought some XOUT balls from Nike for 10 bucks/dozen. Is this a good deal? What does X-OUT mean?

An X-Out ball is the result of a mistake in the manufacturing process.

X-Outs are name-brand golf balls on which that brand has been stamped out, usually with a row of X’s, because of imperfections in the ball. Those imperfections are often cosmetic in nature, and usually so small as not to be noticeable. The balls usually play the same as their counterparts, or at least close enough that most recreational players could never tell the difference.

Let’s use Titleist for the sake of illustration. If during the manufacturing process some tiny little error occurs and the resulting balls are not up to Titleist standards, the company will not package those balls and try to pass them off as Titleist golf balls.

But Titleist doesn’t want to toss them out with the garbage either, because that would be a complete loss of money. So instead, Titleist stamps a row of X’s across the “Titleist” name on the ball, packages such balls in generic packaging and puts a very cheap price on them. Titleist still makes money, and many golfers get practice balls – or play balls – on the cheap.
