Honestly, I am a huge fan of Titleist Pro V1x's

But I want to see what amateur players use when they play at their home courses and whatnot.

My Sticks:

909D3 8.5 Driver, Proforce V2 X Flex
909F3 13.5 FW
909H 17 Degree Hybrid AP2 (4-PW) 56 + 60 degree Newport 2

I just started playing so I play the cheapest thing I can at the moment, which is Top Flite XL 5000's. $11.97 for a 15 pack. Once I stop feeding a 3 per round to the ponds and lakes, I'll try to find one I like better.

Like the Pinnacle Gold FX Long.
Just bought the "soft" version to see if I can get better feel.

I mostly use V1's and V1x's, why? because they stop on greens. Our greens in Iowa can get VERY firm in the summer, most balls just keep rolling.

I also play a lot of other balls, Nike Black are another favorite of mine.

The biggest reason I play Titless, is I get them for free :) I have boxes of DT carry and NXT tours and prov1's from customers, and friends that buy them for their company.

I'll play just about anything as long as its not top flite or any other ball that is rock like.

Titleist Pro V1x. Why, because they are free. I can't remember the last time I bought a golf ball. My company gives out logoed balls to our customers so we usually have a few cases of assorted balls in a closet. When I need some, I just go pick some out. There might be a better ball out there for me (although this one works fine), but I'll never know because I won't pay for them.

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

    • Day 303 - Long travel day, so just some mirror swings. Still trying to find that special combination that doesn’t induce hip pain. 
    • Day 54 - 2024-11-13 Played 18 at Tobacco Road.
    • ..maybe 1 shot HC change might be a good starting point..
    • Yeah, I have a similar view. I was in the team of 2 and we got down 5 after 5. Get 1 pt if win the hole - whatever that game is called. We lost it 3 down with 2 to play so almost saved it. After the first hole when the single did a putt, then dropped a second ball, made a slight adjustment and sunk it, we thought it wasn't right. We couldn't do anything with handicaps etc so we just made them wait between putts - usually just one of us to putt. We were a 23 and 25 handicappers (probably playing to about 28) and the single was a 16 handicapper, but somehow had a HC of 20 (so that is 1 HC pt already). In terms of making it fair, and changing HC (HC1 + HC2 / 4), I think maybe adding 2 HCs to the double (or taking 2 HC off the single (after the adding and div by 4) might make it fair. Also maybe making a rule that the single couldn't change clubs for the second hit. Hard to say from that one game but possibly: - 2 shot HC adding - can't change clubs for second shot - need to have other team putt in between their 2 putts   Not sure. Do you think you'd still win or have these rules made it unfair the other way? Cheers for thoughts..  
    • In that case I double down on my comments - I'll take the single guy and I know if I'm in that match against two similar players I'm pretty confident that I'm the favorite.
