I am a intermediate golfer and now am trying to find the right ball for me. I want a ball that will stick to the green has a soft feel and is relatively straight.

I like the NXT tours but I am hoping to find something a little more durable.

The NXT extreme topflight D2 Feel or the Srixon AD33e are the ones I have looked at I wanted to see if anyone had an opinion on them I am also open to other Ideas.

I have used the NXTs and D2s. I haven't tried the AD333s but I have used Srixon Trispeeds. Those are all good choices along with the Bridgestone e5+/e6+.

Out of those 3, I preferred the D2 Feels but its based on personal (subjective) preference and price (D2s are like $16 per 15). I also like the Gamers and Wilson Zips.

To be honest, I really can't tell much of a difference between most mid-priced balls...probably due to the level of my game. They all feel and perform about the same to me. I have had good rounds and bad rounds with all of the above balls. The difference between a ProV1 and a D2 is noticeable, but a NXT and a D2, not so much. Having said that, when I buy balls, I usually buy NXTs (either Tours or Extremes). Not because I have any proof that I actually hit them better, but because I FEEL like I do. Golf is such a mental game. A wise man once told me "If using a certain driver [or ball in this case] inspires confidence, then use it and don't think twice."

AD-333 is real nice except that the cover cuts easily.

As what I feel to be an intermediate golfer (bogey golf) I've found that I seem to fair better with a three piece ball designed to reduce driver spin but to still maintain greenside playability. Examples that I've tried and like are the Bridgestone e6+, Nike Ignite, Wilson Zip.

A couple of months ago I bought a dozen of the Bridgestone e6+ and a dozen of the Wilson Fifty. The Wilson Fifty is a two piece low compression ball. I liked the Wilson Fifty, but I blew through that dozen balls in about three weeks. I just kept losing them. Two months later though and I've still got 6 of the e6+'s. That is a totally unscientific conclusion, but it seemed like I'd lose one or two of those Wilson's just about every round. The Bridgestones though I easily get several rounds out of a single ball. I just seem to be able to find the Bridgestones easier after a bad shot. After I noticed this I remembered I'd bought my son a dozen Nike Ignites earlier this Summer and since that is a three piece designed for low spin with the driver but good greenside control I took a couple of his and tried them out and had the same positive result. Those balls were good for a couple of rounds too.

Played the NXT extremes and Top flight Gamers today. Love them both Thanks for the help everyone.

I will probably play the gamers they are cheaper and a 3 pice ball. Best value ball there is in my opinion. Perfect blend of distance and spin. I can crush it off the tee and make it check up on one hop no problem.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.

      Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
