Among the many pieces of golf equipment necessary to play the classic sport - balls, tees, bags, or shoes, one of the most important accessories a golfer should have is a golf ball retriever. Retrievers come in a variety of sizes and lengths depending on where they need to retrieve the ball from. Golf balls can get stuck anywhere! Whether it be in water hazards or sand traps, a retriever is a necessary instrument for any player.
The Search and Rescue Retriever
Coming in as the longest golf ball retriever on this list, JTD Enterprises has already come out with their stainless-steel Search and Rescue retriever, measuring in at 18-foot retriever and weighing 1.6 pounds, this retriever comes with a one-year warranty. JTD Enterprises has a variety of other retrievers between nine and 24 feet, but the 18-foot is a happy middle ground with lots of control. This retriever can pick up two balls at a time and is a bright orange in color so whether you are trying to find balls in the water or in the forest, you won't be able to miss it.
