Three balls to consider:

* TopFlite Gamer @ $19.99 a doz.
* TopFlite D2 Feel @ $15.99 for fifteen (slightly less distance; otherwise super!)

I like the Wilson Fifty more so than the Zip. With the Fifty I get better distance and it feels better around the green. Just my two cents.

Niether of the first two are good choices if you want a higher spinning ball.

Nike ONE Vapor and NXT Tour will check but rarely spin back. E6 wont spin at all. E5 would be a very good choice, as well as Top Flite Gamers - 3 piece urethane ball for 20bucks for 15...solid deal

Yes! I took advantage of that deal too. I got the Tour D, because I wanted a premium ball that was a little harder being I played in seemingly nothing but soft damp conditions this past year.

I love playing Nike Power Distance Soft or High. They are normally $28.99 but I just bought them at the PGA Tour Superstore for 8.88 for dozen. Loaded up with them :).
Any of the Power Distance balls are good, but you need to choose the one that fits you.

Thanks.

IMPOSSIBLE to find a better ball than the TaylorMade TP Black/Red for under $30 (they are selling 24 for $55 right now). Hell, I like them better than ProVs so in my opinion it's impossible to find a better ball for any price. Plus you can get them with a custom # for this price which is a nice touch if you're a little superstitious :)

Top-Flite Gamer would be my choice. Its a 3-piece ball with a

The Gamer cover is NOT urethane... it IS ionomer.

They also shred WAY too easy, but I would agree they do feel and perform about as close to a $40 ball as anything out there. Best bargin ball IMHO... Maxfli C3 Red... AKA the old Taylormade TP Red 2007 ball. can be had for under $15 at Dick's. D2 Feel's make great winter balls.

the previous gen top-tier 40+ balls are all selling for around $30, new, now. you could capitalize on that for now.

Other than that, I would reccomend the Bridgestone E Series, NXT Tours, or Top Flite Gamers.

    • Day 3: about 20 minutes of putting on the practice green. Focused on putts within 10 feet.
    • I don't have enough details to know what to tell you, man. If they were walking across, to play devil's advocate, maybe just wait another 10 seconds next time.
    • Day 11: Putts with a metronome and worked on some feels for greenside shots.
    • I realize the frame cuts off my tail but wanted to specifically see my hand path and club shaft and head travel from A5 to A7 with the grip and posture work I have been doing . This might be the shallowest I have managed to get the club head to enter into impact. I like the finish much more as well. 
    • Context:  I used to play golf very regularly (and when I'm playing regularly, I'm on TST regularly).  In summer 2022, I got my handicap down to a personal-best 11.9.  Unfortunately, in the three years since then, I've had far less time to play, and didn't really make the time to practice.  I've played a bit more the past few months, and I anticipate having a lot more time to practice starting in about two months, at which point I'm hoping to go back to my old practice habits (practicing daily, Evolvr lessons, spending more time on TST (come to think of it, I can do that important last part now)).   But it was thinking about how different my nines have been a few times in the past month or so that made me wonder if there was a thread here about it, and sure enough, there was.  In the past month or so, I've had a 38-46 and a 45-39.
