They're just a step down from the new TP ball. Very nice, I played with them over a season, nice and soft, yet no crazy overspin (like Prov1). If they're good enough for John Daly - they should be fine for us too

Yeah, I guess I should've mentioned that I play them too. Depending on the conditions, I switch between the ProV1 and the BlackMax. If I'm feeling "bomb and gouge"-ish, I wail away with the Maxfli. The ProV1 comes into play on tighter courses, where working the ball around is more important.

    • Day 26, May 30.  24 practice balls today;  dozen with the 6-iron, slow and usual full swing.   Because I wasn't super happy with my quarter and half swings yesterday, I also hit six of each with my UW.  What I didn't practice was a high shot that doesn't travel very far (no, I don't mean popping up a drive), and maybe that's something I need to figure out how to hit (probably would be outdoors, not inside).  Today's practice was, as many of mine are, indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls. 
    • Day 270 5-30 Lower arm more infront, not so stuck to side. Getting chest through with some speed. 
    • A nice consistent road is just as satisfying as a round with a few outstanding shots. nice round.  
    • Foundation Session #2  
    • I shot an 85 yesterday without any shots that really stood out as spectacular to me.  On the first nine, the highest SG shots that didn't originate on a tee were a 22 yard chip from the rough to 6' and sinking a 10' putt (not the same hole).   On the second nine, driver 4-hybrid to 17' on a 421 yard par-4 was pretty cool.  Sinking a 15' putt for par on the 420-yard par-4 15th was my largest SG of the day (0.98 vs 10 hcp), and that one goes on my acting resume because when it went in, I acted like I wasn't surprised I made the putt.   I'm a lot happier with that round than this post indicates.  It shows I can play to a pretty good score (a 10-11 handicap shooting 85 on a 70.9 / 125 / 6400 yard is a good performance I think) without having to work miracles.
