The Dirty Dozen: 12 Different Personalised Golf Balls in One Box

Most personalised golf balls work like this: pick a ball, add your initials, get three identical balls. Sensible. Useful. Slightly safe.

The Dirty Dozen is the unhinged older brother of that idea: twelve balls, and every single one can be different. Twelve photos. Twelve messages. Eleven in-jokes and one sincere one to catch them off guard. Each ball is UV printed individually, so the box that arrives is less "pack of golf balls" and more "greatest hits album".

How the Dirty Dozen Works

You choose the ball — proper balls, not range fodder — and then design all twelve:

Every design is printed with durable, fade-resistant UV ink, the same process used across our custom golf ball range.

What People Actually Print

The stag do box. Eleven photos of the groom in varying states of dignity, one ball with the wedding date. Hand them out on the first tee and watch the round take four and a half hours.

The society prize. Twelve balls, twelve members' faces. Funnier than a sleeve of Pro V1s and remembered considerably longer — pairs well with everything in our golf society gifts guide.

The dad archive. A photo per ball: every family holiday, the dog, the grandkids, the car he won't stop talking about. He will refuse to play any of them, which is rather the point.

The brutal honesty box. "Check the trees first." "This one slices too." "Last seen heading right." Golfers buy this version for themselves.

Why It Beats a Normal Personalised Pack

A standard personalised dozen says I know you play golf. The Dirty Dozen says I know exactly who you are — and because each ball is different, losing one (statistically, a certainty) costs a design, not the gift. The remaining eleven carry on.

It also solves the perennial problem of gifting balls to a golfer with strong brand opinions: you pick their brand — the Titleist loyalist gets Pro V1, the value player gets the AD333 — and the personality lives in the printing.

Personalised items can only be returned if faulty or damaged; send photos and we will replace or refund.

FAQ

Q: Can every ball in the Dirty Dozen really be different? A: Yes — all twelve balls can carry a different photo, message or graphic. You can also repeat designs if eleven jokes is one too many.

Q: Which golf balls can I choose for the Dirty Dozen? A: Srixon AD333 (£40), TaylorMade Distance+ (£45), Callaway Supersoft (£45), TaylorMade TP5x and TP5x Stripe (£60), Callaway Chrome Tour (£68) or Titleist Pro V1 (£68) — always 12 balls.

Q: Is the printing durable enough to play? A: Yes. The UV printing is fade-resistant and made for play — though experience suggests recipients hoard the best ones.

Q: Is the Dirty Dozen a good golf society prize? A: It is the most talked-about prize on the table. Twelve different designs means twelve conversations at presentation night.
