I am a intermediate golfer and now am trying to find the right ball for me. I want a ball that will stick to the green has a soft feel and is relatively straight.

I like the NXT tours but I am hoping to find something a little more durable.

The NXT extreme topflight D2 Feel or the Srixon AD33e are the ones I have looked at I wanted to see if anyone had an opinion on them I am also open to other Ideas.

I have used the NXTs and D2s. I haven't tried the AD333s but I have used Srixon Trispeeds. Those are all good choices along with the Bridgestone e5+/e6+.

Out of those 3, I preferred the D2 Feels but its based on personal (subjective) preference and price (D2s are like $16 per 15). I also like the Gamers and Wilson Zips.

what are your experiences with the nxt extremes and D2 feels?

To be honest, I really can't tell much of a difference between most mid-priced balls...probably due to the level of my game. They all feel and perform about the same to me. I have had good rounds and bad rounds with all of the above balls. The difference between a ProV1 and a D2 is noticeable, but a NXT and a D2, not so much. Having said that, when I buy balls, I usually buy NXTs (either Tours or Extremes). Not because I have any proof that I actually hit them better, but because I FEEL like I do. Golf is such a mental game. A wise man once told me "If using a certain driver [or ball in this case] inspires confidence, then use it and don't think twice."

AD-333 is real nice except that the cover cuts easily.

As what I feel to be an intermediate golfer (bogey golf) I've found that I seem to fair better with a three piece ball designed to reduce driver spin but to still maintain greenside playability. Examples that I've tried and like are the Bridgestone e6+, Nike Ignite, Wilson Zip.

A couple of months ago I bought a dozen of the Bridgestone e6+ and a dozen of the Wilson Fifty. The Wilson Fifty is a two piece low compression ball. I liked the Wilson Fifty, but I blew through that dozen balls in about three weeks. I just kept losing them. Two months later though and I've still got 6 of the e6+'s. That is a totally unscientific conclusion, but it seemed like I'd lose one or two of those Wilson's just about every round. The Bridgestones though I easily get several rounds out of a single ball. I just seem to be able to find the Bridgestones easier after a bad shot. After I noticed this I remembered I'd bought my son a dozen Nike Ignites earlier this Summer and since that is a three piece designed for low spin with the driver but good greenside control I took a couple of his and tried them out and had the same positive result. Those balls were good for a couple of rounds too.

Played the NXT extremes and Top flight Gamers today. Love them both Thanks for the help everyone.

I will probably play the gamers they are cheaper and a 3 pice ball. Best value ball there is in my opinion. Perfect blend of distance and spin. I can crush it off the tee and make it check up on one hop no problem.

    • What's the case against blasting a driver at the green? I'm guessing it puts the penalty area/fescue too much into play, but if that's just standard rough around the green, there would be a good case for it. If it's not driver, then I agree with your approach. The one thing I would add is to shade your aim towards the bunkers vs. center of the fairway. Hitting out of a bunker is (marginally) better than a penalty drop.
    • Yes, if you are gonna layup, then layup. No need to nickle and dime a few extra yards and bring bunker back into play.    
    • Took my wedges in to get regripped and saw the local store had some leftover Pure grips, was pretty excited to see those still around. Got those put onto my wedges, I love these grips, they have such a great feel to them. Also picked up a brand new (opened and second hand) Cleveland Huntington Beach putter for a great price! About %50 of retail. It had been purchased by someone else who decided to buy a different putter and was never used. I love the feel of it.
    • I’m not sure I’m following you. My current plan is to take the bunkers out of play completely and hit something like a 6i to 130-150 range.
