i've played the one black (the previous model) and it's a nice ball. spins enough to be able to hit spinning chips and it goes miles. it's not too soft but it would fit well with the insert in my putter, the one tour feels too soft
it's similar to the Pro V1x even though i like the titleist better.

I think it's a great ball, it sticks on the green for me without a problem. It's not as spinny as the One Tour or Penta is, but is nice and long. I'd say it's probably my primary ball, as I use it at least 50% of the time, if not more. When I'm not using it, I'm either trying out something else to see how it performs (out of curiosity, not out of need), or I'm playing the One Tour. It's kinda hard for me to give definitive distance numbers on it because lately it has either been pretty windy or freezing ass cold, but it is consistently one of the top 2 or 3 longest balls I play. As far as softness and feel goes, it's not the softest ball I play, but I wouldnt by any means call it a hard or harsh. It feels softer than the Juice, the Cally Warbird to me. Never played the Z Star, so I cant compare to that, and I have played the E5, and I remember liking it, but as far as a comparison between it and the One Tour D, I cant remember enough about it to give you an honest comparison. Sorry...

i completely agree with control junkie, it is a well rounded ball, with abit of comprimise around the greens.  Perfect for a mid handicap.

have fun on the golf course! score low right?

I liked my experience last season with the Tour D for the above stated reasons.  I don't yet have a consistent swing to produce high swing speed or spin, but the ball felt good off the wedges and putter, and it had very good durability.  I only used five or six of them (found), but based on my use, I would definitely buy them if the price was coming down to make it a worthy mid handicapper ball.

Working at a golf course has it perks, as I'm sure anyone who has worked at one themselves knows, you tend to collect a lot of golf, particularly high end balls. That being said, the One Tour D is the only ball I will actually go out and buy. Offers distance up there with any other high end, distance oriented balls (Pro V1x, etc.), but offers better feel around the greens and in the short irons.

If you ask me, it's possibly the best all round ball I've played, for my skill level anyways.

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
