Hi Im trying to pick the perfect golf ball for my game Ive never bought golf balls just played with ones ive found around the golf course.  Generally I would have used pro v1s but feel that they spin far too much for me on irons and driver especially. With driver it is a no go since i changed the shaft of my driver.  I put an xs 55g nvs in it.  With spin balls and a cut it definitely does balloon but with the proper ball it goes perfectly.  I have hit a couple of taylormade balls and I really liked them one was the penta tp red and think the other was xd or ldp. any thoughts?

Bridgestone e6 is good for keeping distance but reducing spin/ballooning. It's ok around the greens but not as soft or spinny as I'd like.

I've moved over to the NXT Tour which is performing well so far for me.

Bridgestone e7 is supposed to have a lower, more boring ball flight. Not sure about the spin numbers just off the top of my head, though.

You should try a Callaway ball. Personal recommendation from experience would be either the HX Diablo or the HX Hot Plus. You can currently order the HX Hot Plus from Golf Galaxy @ 2 dozen for 35. My new and favorite ball at this time is the Srixon AD-333. Picked up 2 dozen just today for 25! I'll be going back to stock up for next year at that price.
