I think they changed their name now.

Only Sage knows the address.

I know the place Sage means

the address is :

The Second - Hand Golf Ball Shop
Karama
Dubai
UAE

The shop is located above the handbag shop on the corner next to the Birdie Shop. Knock on the door and ask for Shiek Tiger Woods the man with the Golden Balls.

LOL

Better try another forum mate, it doesn't look like anyone here wants to help you.

I'll ask some golf addict friends of mine if they know a place and pm you if something turns up.

In all seriousness, why don't you try one or two of the Golf Clubs, I am sure the correct information should be available.

The golf clubs here rarely sell second hand golf balls since they prefer if you buy new balls from them... the only time I bought second hand balls was at Nad Al Sheba prior to its closure.

I might go to Karama to try to locate that shop...

Forget it, there is no shop in Karama, they're leading you astray.

You're right about Golf Clubs. In Australia, petrol stations were a good supply of 2nd hand balls.... not sure where to find them here yet... but hang in there.

You are right Nad Al Sheba used to have them. Once in a while the other clubs have them.

Here is what I do: I use range balls on the tricky water holes (so long as there are no rangers about) . I keep four or five of them in my bag just in case (and I ran out of them a couple of times!!!!!)

I thought I saw some second hands for sale at the Montgomery (the proper course not the academy).

There is a store on beach road by the Jumeirah Mosque that sells new balls for 3 dhs (not calloways, teitelist, et. al. - just an unkonw brand). They also have all other balls cheaper than at the Golf only stores.
