Hey gang,
I had to post about the New Nike One Vapor ball, I was in the pro shop yesterday to pick up some new eggs, I have been playing with almost every ball under $25 bucks over the last 2 years.

Well, I saw these new Nike One Vapors and at $26.00 and I thought why not try them out, as it suppossed to compete with the Bridgestone 330RX at $40.00 and I swing in low 90's mph.

I have to say it is a great three piece ball, awesome distance, felt solid but not too hard, The cover is really tough, took a cart path off a high hybrid shot with only a minor scuff. The feel was really good, a few chips from 20 yard in and it stuck well. I had several 100 yds in and it seemed to spin good, Not like a well struck pro v but pretty close. It putted well, the feedback and sound is nice. I think I have found a new ball for 2009.

Fairways and greens to all of you.

I am going to try the vapor next, I have heard good things about it. Have you hit the Taylor Made Burner TP ball to compare the two?

I bought a box of the Nike One Tour the other day. I normally play the One Black, and I used to play the One Platinum but thought it "ballooned" too much off the tee. The One Tour sticks much better than the Black (as is to be expected), but I was disappointed in the durability of the cover. It had significant scuff/cut marks from just chipping around the practice green. I know you can't stop that form happening, but it's much worse that what I remember the old Platinum doing.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By Zeph ·

      First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DrizZzY ·

      I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
