TERMS DEFINED:

Mark – other than a spot, discolor or ink, any outer layer surface imperfection that is not a scuff or cut
Scuff – ball hit a cart path or tree and left a rough surface mark – but, the scuff is not a cut because it did not go through to outer core
Cut – duh … extends through surface – goes through both outer thin cover and also thin second layer – exposes outer core
Discolor – tan, faded or non white color larger than three dimples seen easily a foot away (3-inches with magnifying glass doesn’t count)
Spot – tan, faded or dark area, pinhead to dimple size. that's on the original smooth surface and is not associated with a mark, scuff, cut
None of the balls rated 70 or up have any cuts at all.
For each ball, in addition to number rating from above, astrotribe indicates whether ball has player’s ink mark or an added printed logo.
The best rating a ball with player ink on it can have is 95 ..Only balls without player ink, with or without logos, can be rated 99 or 100.
