Those of you who are claiming that the Pro V1 is "long" or is responsible for you "getting your distance back" are having yourselves on. The Pro V1 does not have any qualities that make it go further than other balls. The Pro V1's advantage is its ability to bite hard on the greens. And - unless you are pitching beyond the hole, it's a disadvantage. Making it spin back is great. Not if it pitches hole high and comes back 15 feet short and rolls off the front of the green. There is no point using a Pro V1 unless you are attacking the ball confidently and correctly. They will do nothing for the average golfer who doesn't hit the ball solidly first. And they certainly won't add distance to your drives.

What do you base this on and what ball do think is best for distance?

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By snapfade ·

      I never have and never will subject myself to that. Speaking of hydration though, Thursday I will drink myself around EPCOT, clock-wise of course, then hop on a plane to the Philippines. I will be well hydrated,

      Day 17:  Practiced with my pitching wedge today.  I haven’t been officially coached on it, but my son has tried to teach me (he’s very good with them) and I just cannot get a hang of his method.  I have a ridiculous move that works quite well for me but I probably shouldn’t get into any bad habits.

      Day 566, May 21, 2024 Six-iron swings in the back yard. Felt good. It's hot here, though.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By saevel25 ·

      Yep. It’s easy to get distracted during the day and hardly drink any water. Our bodies do not have a good systems to warn us early enough. Some tips I like. Drink 16+ ounces of water when you wake up. The body can lose 1-2 lbs of water weight overnight. You are already in the red. If you know you are going to work out, or even walking 9 holes of golf. Drink water before hand and during the exertion. I was curious once, I did a 40 ish minute workout and I lost about 5 lbs of water weight. That is 80 ounces of water I need to replenish. Now I try to drink 24-36 ounces beforehand.  Aim for half an ounce of fluid, per pound of bodyweight, per day. Note, this is baseline not taking into account exercise or strenuous activity. Also, if you eat non processed foods, you can get a good amount through diet. If you eat processed foods, you need to drink more during the day.
