The Noodles are my favorite cheap golfballs. The only hit against them is that they don't have any alignment aids. It's pretty much the only ball that doesn't have any to speak of. Get one of these and you'll be great...

I've heard a lot of good things about them, too. I've had some bad luck with them, but I'm not going to blame my terrible golf game on the balls I use :)

I'm going out to try them out again tomorrow.

I used to hit the regular "Noodle" ball - but I have since found the "Noodle Softest" ball. I prefer that much more than the standard Noodle. Give it a try. Distance seems to be about the same if not a hair bit shorter, but the feel is SOOOO much better - particularly for the short game. It also seems to have a higher ball flight. More of a carry and than a roll ball.

I can't find 'em at the bigger golf stores (Golf Galaxy, GolfSmith, etc.) But you can find them at Walmart and Target.

If you like the regular Noodle, I think you'll love the Noodle Softest.

What I Play:

Driver: R9 460
4 Wood: G15

Hy: Callaway FT 3Hy

Irons: AP1 4-PW

Wedges: Vokey 52* & 60*, Mizuno MP-T 10 58*

Putter: Newport Studio Select 2.7

Ball: Nike One Vapor

by "regular" noodle, do you mean the noodle long and soft??

and also, dont softer balls create more spin off the driver which makes it more open for slices and hooks.

I gamed these for a while.

They are great balls. Distance is super and the trajectory a bit higher than other balls.

They took spin nicely and bit into the greens nicely. I never had trouble getting them to check up.

Feel off the putter was nice, too.

Perhaps the best value ball in the game!!!!!

Yes. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Noodle ball's slogan has always been "long and soft." I have played both the regular Noodle ball and currently play the Softest Noodle ball and I haven't noticed one being more prone to a slice/hook then the other.

I beg to differ. We went through this earlier this year. The Long & Soft is actually owned by Dicks Sporting Goods, I believe.

Played these today for the first time as it was pretty cold outside. It was around 45 degrees most of the day. Distance seemed pretty good and had good feel around the greens.

go look at the back of a long and soft sleeve/box. it says manufactured by Taylormade corporated. or something like that

Exactly right. That would be the Noodle + Long & Soft...which is owned by Taylor Made.

The Maxfli brand is now owned by Dicks Sporting Goods.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By Carl3 · Posted

      Reviving this old thread as it seems most relevant to my question on "what is OB". I was playing a casual round by myself yesterday early in the AM. I pull my tee shot that lands near a road and then rolls across the road to the far side. I tee another up and land near the fairway. I was going to forget about the first tee shot, buy a man taking an early morning stroll points out where my ball ended up. I take a look and it is a great lie. I put it to 15 feet with my 54*, just miss my birdie putt and have a tap-in for par. Or do I? Here is the plan view of the hole: There are no white stakes anywhere, so I didn't think anything of it at the time. Here is a street view: Now I picked up my 2019 version of the Rules of Golf and found this  2.1 Course Boundaries and Out of Bounds: Golf is played on a course whose boundaries are set by the Committee. Areas not on the course are out of bounds. The second sentence leads me to believe that the ball was out of bounds as it was not on the course. It is unusual for me to be there, but lots of people wind up over there. I have a two-day tournament coming up here, so I want to be prepared. I suppose I could inquire in the clubhouse about the composition of the "committee" and then ask them, but short of that what does this community think?

      This is a fun leaderboard. I don't feel particularly vested in anyone specifically albeit we all know one man is looking like he will most probably put this championship to sleep by the time the day is over today. On a different note, I've changed my tune on BDC in the last year or so. I found myself applauding and genuinely happy for him for making the cut yesterday. Iffff a LIV guy wins this year I would rather it be him. Unlikely Scottie who seems to have supreme control of all his levers, he lives a bit more on the edge and yet has the perseverance and might I say, infectious positivity of a small time hustler. Dude just keeps hammering away. Love it.
