i change a lot but i usually play bridgestone b330 rx.......playing pro v1's irritate me because they are awsome around the greens but i hate them with any sort of wood......bridgestones dont spin enough but theyre soft and great off the tee (and btw id bet they are the longest ball too)

in my bag
driver: r9 with Fujikura Motore 65g stiff shaft
3w-5w: Sz with stock shafts (aldila hm) stiff
irons(3-pw): s59 stiff

I experimented with several balls so far this season. I ended up settling on the 09 prov1. They're finally durable enough to justify their price, imo. (sans cart path or tree) I played 36 holes with one ball over the weekend with just moderate wear from wedge strikes. The ball still seemed like it had good life, too. Ive worn out previous models in less than 9 holes. Im very happy with this new model right now.

Usually whatever is cheapest because I still lose a decent number. I am contemplating something better now though as I just went my first round without losing a single ball.

I definitely noticed a distance loss on the last balls I bought (dunlop, 18 balls for $14) and they give no feel on short shots. Couple times I've found a pro v1 on a course and used it I was shocked at the control/spin even a beginner like me could get. Now to find a good middle ground of cheap + good performance.

I tried out the Nike One Platinum yesterday and really liked it. I like a lot of control [read: spin] around the greens and these give me that. As of now, these are the new ball for me.

Pro V1x - very happy with the 2009's durability. Can usually get 9 holes out of them, and then they're still good for the chipping/putting green.

I tried out the TM TP red yesterday and was very happy with it. Nice feel and control around the green, maybe a little shorter than the V1 and B330 RX I usually play though.

I have been playing Precept Laddy X, great ball and real cheap. I recently tried Srixon Soft Feel also a great ball reasonably priced.

I was never a person to buy premium golf balls but the other day I tried a Pro-V1(for the first time) and I was amazed. I would have never thought there was so much difference in the feel and spin factor between a surlyn and urethane ball. I have always played the Top Flite D2 Feel ball but I am definitly going to look into something that is higher spin.

I hit a 1/2 SW the other day that checked up unbelieveable fast with a Pro-V1, would've seen 15 more feet of rollout with my Top Flite D2 Feel. A higher spin ball will definitely benefit my game.
