Ball Washer

A course amenity consisting of a cleaning station with brushes and water designed to help golfers clean their golf balls during play, essential for maintaining optimal ball performance and course etiquette. Ball washers are typically located on or near tee boxes and provide the tools necessary to remove dirt, grass, and debris that can affect ball aerodynamics and performance. Understanding proper ball washing technique and etiquette helps golfers maintain equipment performance while respecting pace of play and course facilities. Clean balls perform better aerodynamically and provide more consistent results, making ball washing an important part of course management. Modern ball washers often include towels and other cleaning accessories to support optimal ball maintenance.
