I got to thinking today, out of the biggest golf companies out there. ping is among the few that dont currently make balls. (along with cobra, maybe cleveland being counted as biggest too.) So does anyone out there think ping will ever make a ball, or just keep going how they are?

Ping used to make I guess in the 90's or 80's, the ping-eye as pictured by sean miller and some of their two-toned ones are collectibles today (Mine is ppink/white). Cobra, until recently was a member of the Aushnet family, which is the parent company for Titleist so that's why you wont find Cobra balls out there. They are now on their own, not sure of the relationship, but now partnered with Puma for the clothing line. AS for Cleavland, they are the parent company for Srixon balls. So really 2 of the 3 have balls in the market....
It's the indian, not the arrow! But it sure is nice to have good arrows!!!!!

I thought Srixon balls were "Cleveland" balls. Same parent company?

Ping is making a lot of moves esp with their forged iron coming out soon. I just switched from mp57s to ping s57 and if they ever make a forged iron similar to the s57 it will be a very nice players iron. I just don't see them investing in golf balls anytime in the near future I mean they have had the opportunity to buy a brands such as top flight and maxfli. I'm not saying the never will make balls but I would think they might buy a brand and make it their own.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
