I need to organize a s*** load of golf balls. Need suggestions on how.

Basically, I play at a course sometimes that every hole is lined by woods and find dozens of golf balls most times I play.
When playing alone, I either try to be first off in the morning and get a couple holes ahead, or I just take my time if I’m behind a 3-4some, and will just dip off into the slice and duck hook landing zones instead of just hanging on their heels. I pick up 30-50 balls just by going to a couple hot spots per side. Will pick up 75-100+ if I’ve got all the time in the world.
So, I’m growing quite the collection. Anything from Precepts to ProV’s. The amount of lost ProV’s is kind of insane, then I have a good many of midrange balls. Velocity’s, Super Softs, etc. Then I have a pile of Nitro’s, Precepts, Top Flites, etc.
But, they’re all just mixed up sitting in random buckets and cut open antifreeze or windshield washer jugs.
Has anybody ever tried to track down a couple of those buckets that you get when you order 96 balls from lostgolfballs.com? Those would be perfect, but I’m not having much luck on google?

See, this is why I started the thread. Square was the key word here that I was not using.
“Square Pail” opens up even more options if anybody ever finds themselves in this same predicament.
Thanks for the help, and you’re all welcome for the reassurance that you aren’t the dumbest one logged on tonight.

paint buckets work wonders

No problem. Get a few big zip lock bags. Better not see you on my yard and know I can see you when you kiss in the bushes across the fairway

Donate the balls to a youth program or middle school team. You’re not going to use them and you apparently have an endless supply available.

No way is there 96 balls in that bucket.

Why do you have a shite load of golf balls?
I buy balls and I lose some. When I need more balls I buy more balls. Best way to organize.

I figure, it costs money for any clubs I want, clothes, shoes, greens fees, etc. and good balls ain’t cheap, so I when I’ve got time, and I’m enjoying my only hobby, I take a few extra minutes and a few extra steps off into the wild per round to supply myself with a healthy amount of premium balls for free, rather than buy them.
Naturally, I’m not just going to step over the less desirables, therefore I have a surplus.
A shite load, if you will.

When I was younger, my cousin and I would ride our bikes to the golf course down the street with a ball retriever and fishing pole. We'd spend time catching perch/bass and find a ton of balls. Golfers would often pay us $20 for our findings for the day. I didn't even golf at the time.
Fast forward to when I started playing golf, I used to have as much fun walking through the woods looking for balls as I did actually golfing. Get stuck behind a slow group without anyone behind you or just a slow day was great. It was the game within the game. I don't get the opportunity to do it as much anymore unfortunately. Courses are often packed for the day and there isn't enough time to get off the beaten trail for enough time to find a honey hole.
