My wife's parents caught me 12 for Christmas and I've gamed them for the past two weeks and had a few interesting things happen.  Like I'll know I crushed a drive and it will just drop out of the sky dead...i just wanted to know what other's experiences are with it.

Kinda makes sense… it's a low launch, high spin ball. Which is a pretty small niche.

I don't love MGS by any stretch, but they found that the cores are not very well centered or they have other anomalies in a good % of balls:

Can the Mizuno RB Tour match the quality of the industry leaders? We brought it into the MyGolfSpy Ball Lab to find out.

Hah!!! I frggen knew it!!!  There was just some nonsense happening!  My last round I put a great swing from the deck with my aeroburner mini driver (my 3wood) when I hit it perfectly it will ping loudly and it did on this hit the proceeded to about 170 yards and DIE! On normal shots I hit that thing 230 swinging ( not hard just smooth)  also have hit it as far as 285 yards off the deck.  According to game golf average off the deck is around 225so somehow it went 40 plus yards short.  Wierd thing is that the "dieing" action it would take only happened on full flush hits that I could feel it compress.  If I didn't feel it compress it flew fine...  Just crazy!

Well thanks for the info...put my mind at ease!

I saw those recently and thought about picking them up.

Then I did some more research, found what @iacas did and decided to move on and stick to the Snell MTB.

    • First, it is on free TV. NBC is free to anyone with an antenna, and is on almost any TV in the U.S. with a minimal amount of effort. Charging "a bargain price" would be incredibly dumb. They charged $750 and the event sold out almost immediately. You could better argue they should have charged MORE, not less. What happens if you charge less: ticket scalpers buy up even more of the tickets because they see value: if tickets were $250, they'd clearly have sold for $1k or more on the secondary market. That's tremendous value. Fans would end up paying the same or more, or just not being able to go. Sure, a few who happened to be online at the precise moment on a fast connection and didn't fumble with their credit cards might have gotten tickets for $250, but the secondary market and ticket brokers would have scooped up the vast majority with automated processes and bots and scripts, then re-sold them later on. This way, fans get to purchase the tickets, and the PGA is earning that revenue, not the secondary ticket brokers. Econ 101. Supply and Demand. Nope.
    • Edit - the link has no title, but basically Tiger wants $5 million for each US player to “donate to charity”   They could put the Ryder Cup on free to air tv, and charge the fans a bargain price to get in.  If you have to  give the players $60 million, that’s why the tickets are $750.

    • P7TWs all day IMO. Especially because they're already fit for you. And it sounds like you have an interest in buying/selling so using the Vapor Pros would only decrease their value.
