I will use any tour ball I find in the water. But only if it looks like it was knocked in that day or maybe the day before. If it's all yellow. Say hello to the chipping green.

JMO but I find the Nike Juice to be a phenomenal ball for $19.99 so I don't even bother with anything else.

I've used all sorts of balls before. For me at least, the higher priced balls (such as titleist or nike) work pretty well for me. I would have never thought different brands of balls could be so different, but I can definitely feel the difference between a titleist and a range ball. Having said that, I'm not all that picky when it comes to what ball I'm playing and usually just play with whatever I happen to fish out of my bag. I can still hit good shots no matter what ball I'm playing.

So as to answer your question, if your budget is tight or you just don't want to spend a lot for a pack of expensive balls, by all means keep at it with your trusty pinnacles.

      Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      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?
