Callaway Golf Ball Retriever for Water, Telescopic with Dual-Zip Headcover

Bought for my husband for Christmas, super Sturdy, fits perfectly in golf bag! Very useful and great price!

I bought a plastic, basket type retriever and I liked it, but the plastic rod broke. A few weeks ago, I bought a $15ish metal one and it broke after the 5th use. It was awful. I decided to invest more and get this one. It is amazing. Sturdy and incredibly fast to get balls. I had 6 balls from under bushes before my 2nd shot on the 1st hole - it is simply that easy and fast to use. The only down side is that it is bigger and takes a space in my club slots in my bag, but it is well worth it. I ordered another one for my spouse on the 5th hole. It is that good. Don't waste your money on cheaper ones, this is an amazing ball retriever.

Better than the original that I had, and lost. Extensions are much sturdier than on the original. Long extension, to fish out golf balls away from the edges of the ponds. Perfect addition to a hackers golf bag. I like that it has a head cover.

It took a while to get used to using it, but it works fairly well. I especially appreciate the extra long reach. The only issue is how high it stands in the bag and gets in the way of reaching for other clubs. The other issue is it’s pretty heavy, but that’s necessary in order to get the extra length. Well-made. However, one problem one of the rings wouldn’t loosen so a section couldn’t extend further. I wrote to Callaway, but never got a response.

Expensive but worth it if you like retrieving golf balls. This little gadget works great for retrieving balls and it extends very long.

This is more useful than the others. It’s very sturdy and picks up balls easily.

Great design, the ball quickly is trapped in the cage making it easy to pull the ball out of the thickest brush. I swear it nearly paid for itself on day 1. Awesome ball retriever, should’ve bought it years ago

I love that it comes with a cover and the telescopic feature. Great quality!

Great present

Solid. Leaves the others for dead. Light, sturdy and nice and long.

Firstly, this retriever is longer than expected. It is as long as a Golf Driver. Nevertheless it still fits into the golf bag. Secondly, it is rather heavy. If it is extended, you may require both hands to hold onto it for any ball retrieval. Nevertheless, it is sturdy. It is a bit over-the-top in size (length) and weight just for a ball retriever. Other ball retrievers I've seen and experienced with, are much shorter and lighter and thus easier to handle. Honestly did not realise its dimension and weight until I received it in a long box. Thought I bought a driver by mistake.

Very long ball retriever but strong when extended. The head cover blends in with the other head covers too which I like. It is more expensive than the others but I'm hoping it will last. I'll update the post at the end of the season and comment on it durability. Update Still as good as new and haven't bought a new box of balls since, just play with the Pro V1s I find now and must have 60 plus decent balls in a bucket in the garage. The not so good balls I give to mates who have just started playing. Paid for itself multiple times already.

The pole has a massive reach and so ball retrieval is less perilous when standing on the edge of a ditch. The pole is very sturdy too. My previous cheapo telescopic ball fetcher fell apart within 12 months. I think this will last a LONG time. The mechanism is both ingenious as well as simple. Clamping onto the ball requires little coordination. Even works well when the ball is sat underwater on soft silt. The lower part of the mechanism always remains below the ball when you are trying to latch on. The other basket designs tend to push the ball deep into the silt, at which point it is very hard to recover. I do like the extra touch of the head over too. Best "club" in my bag!!
