Do you know why the price dropped? I work at a Sports Authority, but none of us seem to know.

Every other company seems to drop prices once next years model comes out, I have not golfed long enough to say whether or not titleist has dropped ball prices in the past. With the current economic conditions - all golf related companies have taken a beating - this could also be a result of that.

I've been buying Pro V1 "PRACTICE" from Golf Discount for $25.00 a dozen. At that price I think they're totally worth it even for a beginner like me. Even though I can't spin a ball back, I do notice these stop on the green WAY sooner (sometimes immediately) than the Nike Powerflight (any of them) and the NXT Extreme/Tour. Since the practice balls are the same $$ as the NXT and they're considered "conforming" I think it's a pretty good deal if you don't mind a big ol' PRACTICE yelling up at you...

Also, none of these packages of Pro V1's have the red or black sticker on them that says they were manufactured after September, so does this mean once the new year hits, they won't be marketable?

They are worth the money. I play whatever high end ball I can get a deal on and when I buy I usually get 2 or 3 dozen which lasts me for months. Right now you can buy Calloway HXtour 56 balls for cheap and they are every bit as good as ProV1s. Another I have found for cheap that performs very well is the Nike TA2Spin. Distance is not an issue for me my main buying criteria for balls is spin and stopping power with approach shots. I buy the balls that spin the most for my money.

If I were beginning golf I would buy the least expensive golf balls that I could find.... Precept lady ball is under $8 and Costco sells a version of the Titleist ball, 2 dozen for $29.99.

As a beginner the Prov-1 are not worth the money.

    • Not exactly what I thought the article would be about but a little interesting. I immediately thought of @collegefbfan post.  I would like to believe that most instructors have a genuine passion to help their students get better, but I'm sure somewhere there's a guy that gives you just enough to make you have to come back. @iacas can answer this.  Other than being a PGA professional, is any governing body on certifications for an instructor?  I know of the USGTF but is that 100% legitimate?  Ryan: Lessons from the worst golf instructor in America In Tampa, there is a golf course that boasts carts that do not work, a water range, and a group of players none of which have any chance to break 80...  
    • Is the guy a PGA professional or a USGTF professional, or just a guy that tinkers in a shop and has a pretty good golf game? Not knocking you in any way, just curios. Did he take a look at your clubs and take any measurements to see if your clubs length/ lie were OK for you? If you are hitting on a full size range then the launch monitor isn't 100% necessary, ball flight will tell you a lot along with some foot powder on the club face. If all he has is a net then yes a launch monitor is needed.  50 bucks an hour seems like a good deal. I pay 50 for a 1/2 hour. 30 mins is about all my mind will absorb and I leave with one solid thing to practice and a few drills to last to next time. Keep us posted on your journey. 
    • I had a issue with the watch picking up the sensors on a consistent basis. I did what the instructions said, but since I have a GPS watch and an H4 I sent it back rather than to try to work out the issue. 
    • The Golfing Machine calls a shorter full swing motion “pitching” IIRC but I don’t think that’s what was going on here. Did you get video or anything? Launch monitor data?
    • ^ right here. A short game pitching motion is not the same as a full swing in feel nor intent. It’s just not a mini-swing at all. Now if the instructor said to make slow full swings with a 6i and try to hit them only 100 yards, that would be more in line with what I view full swing instruction to be.
