DT SoLo replacement ???

[kregan]

I really liked the DT Solo balls after playing a few that I found. I decided to purchase 120 of them last spring and I am down to my last handfull.

Can anyone help me find a replacement with the same characteristics as the DT SoLo ? I have played a few NXT's and those seem pretty close.

What do you think?

why don't you just get more solos

Getting hard to find... do you know a source ?

NXT Extreme, Bridgestone E6, Top Flight D2 Feel...etc... All much better than the SoLo's imho.

The DT Carry is pretty much the same ball... the DT Roll is similar as well, but with a lower ball flight.

I would say the Topflite D2 Feel would be the best replacement and best deal though.

I tried the D2 feel and didn't really like those.

Here is what I have tried:

D2 feel - it was OK but I found the DT Solo after playing the D2's and they felt better to me.

E6+ - had 3 balls, first eagle with one ball, it was retired, lost the others to quickly to evaluate.

NXT - mix of tour and extreme, found balls, could not really tell a difference, I liked them also.

I think I will get a dozen of the NXT Tour, NXT Extreme, E6+, and maybe DT Rolls.

The Titleist DT Carry and DT Roll would be a good replacement.

DT SoLo's seem to be available here but the NXT's are ranked higher pretty consistently.

Its been a while since I've hit a SoLo, but don't remember much I liked about them. The NXT tour is a good performing, durable, mid-priced ball that has been a staple in my bag for quite some time.

The DT Solo are available from lostgolfballs. They are an ebay seller and have their own website. Knetgolf out of Canada may have them, too.

If you don't want to go the used ball route, the Titleist Gran Z is the official replacement for the DT Solo.

If you can't find them, I may still have a few dozen lying around the house. Shoot me a PM and I can sell you what I have.

Bridgestone Tour B330.S are a very similar ball to SoLo
Decent length off the tee and good feel around the greens.

And THAT's what we needed to hear! Thanks!!

Lostgolfballs.com is out of stock on the DT Solo.

I ordered 12 each: NXT Tour, NXT Extreme, DT Roll, E6+

I still like going the lostgolfballs route for now... though I don't loose balls nearly as often as I did last year I would rather keep the pace of play and not search for a ball more then a minute or so. At $1.00 to $1.50 per ball I don't worry about it.

maybe in another year or two that will end !

Grand Z.... The Titleist site does not show them. The DT carry is a high flight ball with 252 dimples. The roll is a 392 ball, same as a solo, but doesn't have the feel of a solo.

Love the solo. I still buy them in the big used 50 packs for about $18 and use them a lot in the Winter. I may not be able to put a fire out with them (stop, drop, roll), but they don't spin off the green on long approach shots. That said, can be tough to chip with them.

http://www.lostgolfballs.com/Titleis...FR9N5Qodj0wBbw You can pick them up for as little as $10 a dozen. I know at one point both Golfsmith and Golf Galaxy had them.

I tried the D2 feel and didn't really like those.

You might also try the Pinnacle FX soft, plays just like a NXT Extreme IMO

Play 18 today and started the day with a ProV1 for the first 9 holes... It was shorter for me by a club length. I guess I don't have the swing speed to compress them.

On the back 9 I tried the one NXT Extreme I had in my bag... Distance came back and the feel was better to me then the ProV1.
