Wilson Staff FG Tour. Great ball. Soft feel, long off the driver, great around the greens and putting is very pleasant. Also using TM TP Red or Callaway I(s). Callaway website says I should try their I(z) so may have to give it a shot.
But the wilson I think is going o be my ball of choice when the TP reds run out.

I play anything i find. I don't buy golf balls. They're the most over-priced piece of equipment.

I agree but as with most items research and demand drives price up.

"My ball is on top of a rock in the hazard, do I get some sort of relief?"

I like the Callaway HX One and HX Bite and prefer the feel of a 3 piece ball. Having said that I find a lot of golf balls, go through them and play the ones that are still in good condition, regardless of make.

I've been playing a lot of Callaway golf balls since I tried out a box of HXHot last year. Right now I have played the Warbird and the tour(ix). I find that if I need a bit more distance, I'll pull out the Warbird. When I need to stop it on the green, I use the tour(ix). League nights, the greens are hard so I play the tour(ix). However, after reading a post on the website, I'm interested in trying out the new TaylorMade Penta's. In 2002, TaylorMade started making a two-piece ball and I love it. Then, they stopped making them and I was disappointed. I'm intrigued how this new ball will perform.

On a side note, I have tried the Titleist NXT and Pro V1x and I do not like them. Based on how I play they do not work for me.

I play either Slazenger RAW Distance or Nike Power Distance. Normally Slazenger, because Dick's Sporting Goods almost always has them at buy 2 get 1 free 15 packs. I lose too many balls to warrant spending the money on super expensive tour balls. I'm a bogey golfer anyway.

I've been trying out different balls, so it was hard to narrow it to just one. Top-Flite would have been my choice, but a Nike ball is the next in line for my experimentation, so I voted Nike.

Irons: Adams Idea Tech OS Hybrid Irons (5-PW)
Wedges: Maxfli 56* and 60*

Wilson FG Tour is my ball of choice now. Awesome and very good value. Have a bunch of Bridgestone 330-RX which'll be my Winter ball until they run out. Like the Bridgestone 330-RXS a lot too and will probably be an alternative to the FG Tour. Currently using up some Srixon Z-URC which, although a bit hard feeling for me, is performing much better in the warm weather than it ever did in the Winter.

I have been playing the Bridgestone B330-S for almost 2 years now. I bought about 20 sleeves of all different kinds of balls and swapped them out over the course of the season. I found the B330-S to be the best balance of distance and feel for me. Not the longest, not the best spin, but a good combo. However, Im hearing great things about the TM Penta, so I may give them a try later this season.

Majority of the time its a Pro V1 or V1X. But I've been playing others lately to see if I can get something else working for me.

Been trying different balls, still got 20 or so Pro V1 I bought a long time ago. I've ordered a bunch of the Bridgestone E6. The E series from Bridgestone are solid balls that I have enjoyed a lot.

Purchased a box of FG Tours yesterday. I tried the C:25s and they were actually too long - distance control issues. Still using the Eco Cores too. I like knowing my ball will be in the fairway when I get there - people see "Wilson . . . " think of volleyballs, then keep moving.
