If you hate the line options, how do you feel about the two-colored balls? I can bring some awful looking Sricon Z Stars to the golf outing 😆

This is my go-to golf ball right now.
I've got like 6 dozen in my office closet.

Q: When does a joke become a dad joke? .... 

A: When it's apparent. 

Back on topic. I like heading up the fairway and being able to identify my golf ball from a hundred or more yards away. I really don't see a downside to adding either color or alignment marks to the ball. Of course some colors don't make sense in my mind. A grass colored ball or sky colored ball would clearly have a downside.

I prefer a solid color ball whether it’s white or another color as long as it’s not “blinding” when I’m over it. Simple alignment line is all I need for putting.

    • Which was his second hole, yeah. I talked with Mav's coach/instructor last night, ha ha.
    • Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

    • My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.
    • I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
