I played my first round yesterday with the Maxfli Noodle Long & Soft ball and I really liked the way it played.

I found a couple of those a few weeks back and liked them. They compress nicely off the driver and they stop pretty good on the green.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

You guys should check out the wilson staff 50 and zip. SUPER EASY to compress and they are very soft around the green.

Not the most durable around the green and not the most distance but its not bad by any means. Other than the DT roll, i don't think i like any ball better than the 50, yet to try the zip but i hear great things.

I'm thinking about switching balls. ProV1's are way too expensive, and I was thinking about switching to Top Flite Gamers or Bridgestone e5's. Anyone have any experience with these 2 balls?

UPDATE

A friend of mine neighbor hunts balls daily at a local course and in selling me 300 plus balls extremely cheap. These suppose to be the better balls he finds. I was told the scuffed balls has been removed. I'll keep some, sell some and the bad I'll use on my driving range. Suppose to get them tis evening.

I'm going to have to agree with Cody, I like the Wilson Staff 50. I'm a high handicapper, but I do think this ball is a lot better for me then others I have tried.

Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
