An overrun golf ball is a ball that comes with an additional manufacturer’s imprint as a result of overproduction. For instance, overrun golf balls are often sold with a company’s logo or a particular event printed on the ball.

Overruns are balls of mixed years that are new and never played. The manufacturer sometimes over-produces for the market they are shipping to and they throw them in a huge bin until they are sold off to retail sellers like us. We sort them out by "with" and "without Logos", pack them up and sell them to you!
