I have to agree. I bought a dozen as a joke to mess with one of my playing partners, who had commented about how goofy a yellow ball is...

Now, it's not a joke anymore. I love the ball, and will continue to use it.

what's so bad about yellow golf balls?
yellow ultra's are lucky for me, I got my first eagle with one.

they're easy to see in the rough, especially when the daisy's come out.

Until you forget you are playing a yellow ball because you have been playing white balls forever!

I found and used a yellow z-star and drove by it twice looking for a white ball.

I don't think so....but the Z-Stars are only $10 more....and with a 14 HC, that should not be too hard too swallow.

I played them the other day, and they are amazing!!!! Super easy to see coming out of the sky, in any condition, and extreamly easy to spot in the rough, not to mention that the play like tour balls....very versatile around the greens, and nice with the long sticks.. I need to diminish my stash of balls....recently reached 80 with a mix of Mojo's, Gamer and Gamer V2, Titliest Pro V1 and ProV1x, NXT Tour, Srixon Tri Speed and AD333. I also have a couple of pinnacle (gift from Shula's Senator course) and Ping two tone (white and pink) that are in the bag, but never get played.
It's the indian, not the arrow! But it sure is nice to have good arrows!!!!!

I played the Z-Star Tour Yellow for the first time yesterday. It goes just as far as a white ball, spins just like a white ball, but unlike a white ball I can see it all the time. It's my new ball.

The yellow ball really does stand out better and you are less likely to hit someone elses (until the yellow ball really catches on). Unfortunately not all manufacturers offer them.

I am a permenant user of the Z-Star Tour Yellow! The only trouble I have with them is finding them in the store. according to my golf Galaxy, they fly off the shelf less than 1 hour after puting them out! Now if i am in a store and they have them, i pick up a box! I played a course with some nasty rough really early in the morning and even with the sun shining off the wet grass in my eyes, no trouble finding my ball... spent my time looking for my playing partners ball!

I could ask why anyone would live in New Jersey? The taxes and the politicians are unbearable.

Do you find them more relaxing at address? It seems to me that, back in February, Srixon was trying to use that as another selling point.

My best memory of the ball, though, is Jim Furyk's ace with it a few months back.

I played my best round in three months with it on Sunday, which just happened to be the Club Championship final. I made four birdies and was very relaxed. They also appear to stay cleaner then white balls. Now I have to see if I can do some swapping with friends or trading in to the pro shop the new Pro V-1's and white Z-Stars I have since I am officially hooked on the Tour Yellow.

Just started playing with the Z-star and I'm loving them. They are tough and fly very far. I may just be hooked on this new ball.

In my bag:

One for slicing
One for hooking
One for knocking it in the cup

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.
