Haven't tried the Gamers yet but will try them soon. My ball for now is the Srixon soft feel. It will be very hard to beat, at least for me, at any price. Both balls were rated gold by Golf digest for the under $22 in 08.

4 wood..... Nickent 4DX
Hybrids.....Tour Edge Geomax 22* 25* 28*

I've been playing Bridgestone B330-RX balls which I like well enough, but I honestly don't think that they're worth the extra money.

For me, Top Flite Gamers perform very similarly at a more reasonable price.

I will try a couple of sleeves next time I purchase golf balls, and if I still don't see a difference, I'll go back to the Gamers permanently. At least for me, they seem like a very good ball for the money.

i was playing gamers, recently switched to Burner TPs. much more durable cover and better all around ball. 2 dozen are 45 bucks, but combine it with one of those 10-15% off coupons golfsmith always sends out and your'e looking at just about 20 bucks a dozen. TP blacks are a great 3 piece and at 2 dozen for around 50-55 bucks they are a good value, but the urethane cover (great as it feels) gets cut up easily.

in my bag:

Driver: '08 Cobra F Speed LD 10.5 w/UST Proforce V2 Tour Flight stiff

Fairway: Adams Speedline Fast10 3-wood w/Aldila Wasabi stiff
Hybrid: Nickent 3dx 3H
Irons: Nike CCI forged 4-pw Wedges: Nike Victory Red 52 56 60 Putter: Rife Mr. Beasley Balls: Bridgestone B330-RX Tees: epoch

I am still trying to find a dozen of these. The Bridgestone Treosoft is the best '$20 for 12' ball I have played so far.

I have to either order them online or drive 1 hour to Golf Galaxy to get them but I like them a lot. The Noodle+ (by Taylormade) is also impressive for the $18 for a 15 pack but I like the gamer a little more.

Drivers: Taylor Made Burner 9.5 draw stiff shaft.
Woods: Nike SQ 13* strong 3 wood Steel X-Stiff
Nike SQ 5 wood steel stiff.
Irons: Adams Insight Xtd's.
Putter: Odyssey SRT 2 ball, and White hot #1 Balls: Callaway tour IX, Noodle+,or Callaway Hot Plus or any premium ball.Driver...

    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
    • Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings. 
    • IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
