Didn't lose one yesterday, which is only the second time I've been able to do that. Played a Bridgestone e7 and it still looks perfect, tough ball for sure, I'll probably keep it in the rotation for a few more rounds.

Played a 36 hole tournament, lost one ProV1x after 6 or 7 holes. Played the rest of that round and today's 18 with another Pro V1x. It's pretty beat up by now but it was working fine.

Not trying to hijack the thread but you should put a poll with options 0-7(?) and see what people put.. I lost three today, but still barely pulled off a 77. +5.

I'm not sure why this would need to be a poll, but I am sure your listed handicap is wrong.

I lost 2 last time I played. One I pull-hooked OB, one that just disappeared in the middle of a fairway. I pulled my drive, hit a 5i from the rough and watched my ball bounce twice on the edge of the fairway about 10 yards short of the fringe. I got up there and I and my playing partner couldn't find the ball for the life of us. I SAW it land and bounce TWICE. I can't understand how we couldn't find it.

Normally, pretty rare these days for me to lose a ball on the 9-hole courses I play, as my play has improved a lot in the last year.

Hope to be playing West Point, N.Y., later this month — that should be a good test...

West Point's tight tee boxes with trees/deep undergrowth/forest are ball swallowers.
Your ball goes in; it never comes out. (Unless you like to take chances with poison ivy. Bears anyone? [And no, we are not armed, just guests.])

I was thinking the same thing Sean (that's scary). You got to figure 3 lost balls usually would add up to be about 5 strokes or so when you really think about it. I'm a 10hc and when the rare time comes when I shoot 77.......the biggest reason is because I avoided penalties!

I played the last 36 holes with the same ball. Hope to get a lot more with it.

Since everyone is posting scores too, I shot 84-79 on those 2 rounds.... seems to be an exceptionally low scoring ball.

None, my balls are tight!

No offense to you personally, but this is becoming an epidemic on the internet. Nobody can spell the word "LOSE".

Played on Saturday (I am a weekend warrior) I lost 2 on 9 holes walking.

I think I lost about 7 balls today. It was a new course for me and man, was it tough for me. I hit a few shots that looked like they went right now the middle of the fairway, but the wife and I couldn't find them. Maybe it was the ball fairy taking them away. Can't figure it out. I also don't look very long for a ball on a popular course. You know, golf etiquette.
