I admit I have a little troubling following the flight of my ball on drives.  I was using the lime color Callaway Supersoft and found it easier to see than the white, so when they introduced the bright orange I bought a dozen of those.

I don't know if any of you have used the orange balls, but I find them extremely hard to see.  Not only in flight but even when they are lying on the fairway.

So now Callaway has yellow and blue.

What ball do you all find easiest to see?  (I'd make this a poll question but don't know how)

Thanks

Click edit, the little pencil at the bottom of your post and then once in edit mode look at the bottom of the page (lower left I believe) and you see the "add a poll" option. I prefer white so, no help there...

I 100% love that bright yellow Sirxon Z star XV....  I bought a few dozen at Dick's when the new ones came out ($24 a dozen compared to $48 for the new ones)...  I accidentally bought some of the tour yellow... and now I'm hooked.

I can definitely see the bright yellow better in low light conditions.

There are days where the white balls disappear in the clouds.   On a typical cloudy Michigan day though, I like white.    I do like the bright yellow as an alternative.

I like the color of the Pinnacle Bling purple, but man that ball is hard to see. I really like the green Volvik Vista iV. I posted this in another thread. :-) It really is easy to see.

I do have to say, Yellow is a pain in the arse if you hit it by a driving range with yellow golf balls....  that doesn't help.. Steer clear of range overflow!!!

brightest ball I've ever played - I play these when playing alone - only ball I can see in flight (its completely different than any other orange ball on the market - it practically glows )

^Thx Phil ... I like white balls too but can't pick them up if there's clouds in the sky & I keep my head down like I'm supposed to ... those orange balls are amazing against a cloudy sky

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 ·

      Hitting some good shots on my golf trip. It's good I can tell when I hit better shots the way I want to swing the ball versus when I use an older swing. Shockingly, the short game has been at worst, not harmful to my game. I am using similar feels to the full swing, in that I try to get my hands down. I've been nipping the ball clean off the turf.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!
