I am looking to commit to a golf ball and start using it regularly but before i do I wanted some input.  I usually treat myself to a new box of balls every year.  Usually I pick the pro v1 or the Penta.  I love the feeling of these balls but unfortunately after 3 or 4 wedge shots the ball is absolute garbage due to the cover being ripped apart.  Is there any balls that have that nice softness but aren't gonna be obliterated by my wedges every hole?

Also I think my swing speed is 105+ (with a driver), I use 6.0 shafts if that helps.

Driver: RBZ 9.5° Stiff

Woods: :nike:VR_S Tour 2.0 15° Stiff

Hybrids:  910H 21° Stiff

Irons: 4-GW Pro Black CB1 with Project X rifle 6.0

Wedges:CC Jaws 56°.14° 60°.08°

Putter: Classic 1

Ball:  Z-Star XV Pure White

Definitely go with Callaway's new HEX Black Tour! Highly durable... The only ball I've used from my box so far, I've used it for a good 9 holes and even dinged a shot off the side of a mountain, and the only damage to the ball is a very minor scuff (you really have to look hard to see it) and the font on the ball is faded in a spot, but it's still in great shape. I've also spun in a handful of wedge shots with it... Still in near mint condition.

It also happens to be the best feeling golf ball I've ever played... Ideal for 105+ swing speeds, long off the tee, but still spins a ton without any real compromise on either area of performance.

So far, in my experience, they're well worth the hype...

MY GEAR:

Driver/Woods/Hybrids: RBZ Tour

Irons: X Forged 2013's

Wedges: SM4's (52/56)

Putter: PROTYPE Series

Balls: HEX Black Tour/Chrome +  Pro V1x/NXT Tour

      Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things? TIGER WOODS' AMATEUR VICTORIES YEAR WIN(S) 1984 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1985 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1988 Boy's 11-12 Junior World Golf Championships   1989 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships   1990 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships, Insurance Youth Golf Classic   1991 U.S. Junior Amateur, Boys 15–17 Junior World Golf Championships, Orange Bowl International Junior Look at some other AJGA Players of the Year. How many of these names do you recognize? A few, for sure. I assure y'all, I'm not trying to pee in your Cheerios. I just don't get what the point is. Okay. I get that, then. Thanks.

      Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.

      Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.

      Day 1: Spent some time hitting some balls. Working on my hips and a “soft” and straight trail arm.

      Slight digression on the way to my point. Back in the day there were a lot of people who said that Tiger won because of “the Tiger effect” where people pushed too hard and made mistakes trying to catch him and fell by the wayside. I thought that was BS. It was just that he was that much better than them. I don’t think anything has changed my mind on that.    The hype about Miles Russell is very limited. I’ve seen nothing about him outside of some fairly hardcore golf websites. But I think that the reason those people are talking about him is because he is very good. Same as Tiger. And like I said he just broke one of Tiger’s records. That gets hardcore golf fans to pay attention.
