ABSTRACT:
A golf ball buffing apparatus includes a holder for holding a golf ball and an assembly for buffing the surface of the golf ball. The buffing assembly mounted for motion toward and away from the golf ball includes a rotating shaft; a buffing head affixed to one end of the rotating shaft and having a buffing face shaped in substantial conformity with the surface of the golf ball; and a guide assembly having a plurality of following faces that are disposed radially outward from the buffing head and substantially coincide with the extended shape of the buffing face. The buffing head and the guide assembly are movable together in the axial direction of the shaft. The apparatus can efficiently buff only selected portions on the surface of the golf ball where burrs are formed.
