Hello,
I have been playing golf for about 6 years now, and im sure everyone can remember the days of the Topflite Strat Tour Professonal. Well I continue to play this grand golf ball, and well I have been looking into trying a few new golf balls but time of year and current location keep me from doing this. If anyone has anything on the Wilson TX4 tour golf ball please post? If you have any suggestions for a player with 5 handicap, 112mph swing speed, 285 avg drives, control player, they would be well appricated.

Thank you

Man, there is a reason that more PGA tour players play Titleist golf balls than all other brands put together. And it isn't because Titleist pays them more. Titleist balls are the best. ProV1 and ProV1X. Other balls you might want to try are the New Taylor Made balls and Callaway makes an alright ball.

Yeah, he is right.

I use the HX Tour from Callaway because I feel I can compress it better than I do the Titleists. At 112, your guy can compress Titleists.

The HX Tour has nice, predictable, consistant spin on the greens, yet still minimizes side spin off the longer clubs. Something I find more important than distance - but it is still long.

Eric reviewed the TaylorMade Red & Black & I am due to try the Long Black next.

I have a pro at the local golf shop that says most of these balls are too hard to compress during the cold winter temps we get here in Vegas & he switches to Maxfli Noodles when the Temp is below 50. Go figure.

there are a number of very good balls on the market now. you can't go wrong with many of them. over the past 6 years or so i have played maxflis, precepts/bridgestones, but i switched to the callaway hx tour 56 due to way it responds around the green, but titleist pro-v's, nike ones, and bridgestone b-330's are all great balls, any of them will do for you, i am sure. never played the new taylor mades so i can't say anything about them.

    • Yes. If you choose to take the ball out of the bunker instead of taking maximum available relief… it costs a stroke.
    • I got another one today....Number 17. Par 5 that has water left and right on the layup. I smacked a drive down the left side and got a little lazy on the layup and fanned my 6 iron. With 112 to a crowned green I got it to 3 feet and birdie!  Only 5 and 15 is left for this year! 
    • Maybe I didn’t explain this properly. Back and front can be confusing.  There was no place in the bunker that didn’t have 2-3 inches of rain water in it, except for a small spot on the slope nearest the pin. If I had dropped there I would be moving 6-7 feet closer to the hole. Since my ball was just inside the bunker, farthest side from the hole, I dropped one club length backward, which brought me out of the bunker. I could not have hit from that deep of water. Are you saying I would have had to take a penalty stroke due to rain water? 
    • Day 550, May 5, 2024 Got a good hour in with a typical (for me) two-stick setup: pool noodle angled in front, yardstick on the ground angled 45° behind me.
    • Day 130: Cinco de Mayo Day 7/24 of Full Speed Spectrum training. Difficult training day after struggling to certify my warmup yesterday, and today. Finished 13 mph lower than my training speed on Thursday. Hope to hit some balls today.
