  1. 1. What ball should I play? Currently play the pro v1, looking for a straighter ball flight and less spin.

    • Srixon Q-Star
      6
    • Callaway HX Diablo Tour
      0
    • Titleist NXT Tour
      2
    • Titleist NXT Tour S

I'm looking to switch balls for the 2013 season.  I have been playing the Pro V1 for a few months now, it is not straight enough for me and it has too much spin.  I get no roll out on drives! I want the highest spinning non-tour ball that is on this poll.

Putter:  Classic Black Platinum 1

Driver:  R1 Stiff flex

3 Wood:  AMP - Regular flex, 15 degrees

3 Hybrid:  Baffler T-Rail - Regular flex, 19 degrees

Irons: :tmade: MC Forged - PW-4

Wedges: :cleve: 588 RTX 2.0 Tour Blade Black Satin - 52.10 and 58.10

Ball:  Pro V1x

If your sticking with those four, my choice is the Q-Star. But thats more so because its the only one of the 4 I've hit. I do like the Q-Star, it performs somewhat similar to the Z-Star which is my primary ball. Good durability, good visibility, and the price isn't too bad. If your willing to look elsewhere...I'd recommend the Cally Hex Chrome.

Too expensive, looking for a high spin non-tour ball that is under $35

Take a look into Srixon Trispeed tours. Forgot about these, solid ball roughly in between the qstar and zstar. Plus you can usually find them 2dozen for $35.

How do they compare to the Pro V1's?  Are they straighter?

The Pro V1 is not on your list, so why are you trying to compare the Gamer V2 to it??  I have not played the Srixon, but I have played the others on the list (and the Gamer V2) and the Pro V1.    None of them are comparable to a Pro V1.

That said, the Gamer V2 is VERY comparable to the two NXT models and the Diablo Tour..

I am a fan of the yellow Q-star, but I started playing them so I did not have to mark my golf ball since everyone else at my club plays Titleist. If you ever play in Florida, please only buy the white because I get very upset when I see someone else playing the same golf ball as me.

try the topflight straight or pinnacle gold . either should straighten your drive and have a lower trajectory due to less spin . that said learning to control the shot instead of just whacking it will benefit you greatly . M
