I currently am playing the Big Bertha Diablo Golf Balls and like them alot, but I just found a good deal on last years big bertha golf balls. I was just wondering if they were the same ball. I didn't know if Callaway just renamed them Big Bertha Diablo to go with the new driver. Just looking for some info on if you've played both and if like I said they are pretty much the same ball.

Like everything in golf, companies have to come out with 'new and improved' every year to stimulate sales. They claim a faster ballspeed and probably more control. Personally, I didn't notice any difference in the way they felt or performed, but that could be just me. Golf ball technology hasn't changed much in the last couple years, especially for non-premium balls. They will usually have some slight change in the chemistry of the cover, core, or mantel layer that for most golfers is not even going to be detectable. It's all about what you like. If you feel you get better performance from new then you probably will (placebo effect); if not, don't waste money for the new balls.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
