I received a free sleeve of these balls and tried them last Friday. I must say that I absolutely love them. They have great control around the green, and a soft feel that forces me to slow my swing down and hit correctly. I was using the Titleist HP2 Tour but it just didn't feel right. Last year I played some Warbirds and had excellent success as well. I think I can safely say that my ball is a Callaway.

You must have not tried a Bridgestone ball yet. The E5+ and E6+ are awesome.

Haven't tried these yet, but I have just recently tried the HX HOT BITE. They are ok, but get shredded easy. VERY EASY. They feel comfortable and great, but they last about 2 or 3 holes.

How durable are the HX HOT?

I personaly tried the Bridgestone B330 RX over the weekend, and first off I didn't drop 10 strokes or found the cure all golf ball, but for myself, I got better flight off the clubs, driver and irons. Felt good greenside with the wedges, and ok off the putter face, but don't belive the add, hit on in the water out of a fairway bunker on a long par 5 then toe a wedge into the ground below the green and you can most certainly get a snowman on your score card. I will try them more as I work on my swing change's to see how both work out.

I've heard that the Bite's are softer than the std HX HOT. I played 9 holes with the same ball and it had one little slice in it about a 1/4" long. Nothing big enough to start coming apart or effect ball flight.

I've only played these on a few occaisions but noticed they were quite long and (pardon the pun) also "hot" off the face. What I didn't like about this ball was the sorter shots...100 and in, as well as chipping with it right around the green. That being said, it was surprisingly long.

The HX Hot Bite are alot softer than any other ball I have played. They feel great, but I would never spend $30 on them because they would prolly last me 1 round.

I have been hooked on the TaylorMade TP Red balls as of late. These things are suoer great! I love the distance and the softness it provides. It does wonders around the greens as well as my short game. Great ball IMO

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By imsys0042 · Posted

      I wonder if that is why my home course basically have no stakes now.  Not even markers.  It’s completely up to golfers to remember what is OB and hazard and how things used to be marked.     Even in tournaments, there is no marking and certain areas are played differently by different golfers who either don’t know better or use it to their advantage funny reading thru this with courses that actually have markers

      Electrolytes

      By Elmer · Posted

      Great post, thanks for the informaiton. I try to avoid adding salt to anything I eat. I tend to add pepper on to my meals as opposed to salt. And I am trying to eat as clean on possible. On golf day, I eat 3 eggs for breakfast (pepper NO salt) and a salad for lunch, with grilled chicken thigs (pepper, garlic, no salt). I have been trying to avoid processed food, but we all slip. I also should have mentioned that the electrolyte packet calls for mixing with 16 oz of water, however I mix in 32 oz of water, so I dilute the electrolyte powder.

      LIV Golf Now Closed?

      By imsys0042 · Posted

      So if I read the news correctly, the PIF will not fund LIV after this season.  LIV is trying to find new funding and a number of players there are now asking about getting back to the Tour.    I am very, very concerned that Taylor Gooch will not have a place where he can make a jackass out of himself soon

      It is a known technique, similar to the armed forces box technique. They use a 4x4 , in through the nose and out through the mouth. I use it to go to sleep fairly often. It works for me
