I may go get another sleeve of these, especially since my game has improved BIG time. 100's to the 80's now consistently!
I want to compare the Penta to the Pro V1. Durability, spin, distance, flight, etc; it would be interesting on the durability part since I have Vokeys now and I really enjoy these wedges. Everything is starting to mesh together in my short game.

Sunday I'll test a sleeve of each..

I can't wait to find one of these out on the course... I would love to try 'em, just too expensive to buy (for me at least).

Just bought my first boxes of TP Black and got some Pentas for Father's day. The TP Blacks and Pentas are on sale everywhere. Got the Blacks for $26 and the Pentas for $29. Not sure if they weren't selling at the Pro V1 prices or if TM is releasing the Septa, but the prices have been right for me to try the "new" balls.

Played a Penta TP today from my two ball "trial" box. Firm and solid off the club face, beautiful penetrating flight with plenty of roll on drives, on wedge shots it drops out of the sky like it's made of metal and the green is magnetised and it's solid and soft on putts. Sex in a ball.

The only worry I had today was that I'm used to trying to hit the front of the green for my normal balls to roll into the middle but today I found that I'd hit the front of the greenand the ball would stop where it landed.

Now that I can get them for $26 a box I stocked up.  It's a little higher than I like to pay but I love the way they play.  They stick on the green for me and they feel great off the putter.

It could be argued that my game isn't good enough for premium balls, but what the heck.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      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.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      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?
