I am a beginner though I have been playing for about 8 months.  I am revamping my swing and starting all over again after I have gotten progressively worse.  Due to my grip I had very bad fundamentals.

I am going to buy a 100 mix bucket from a used golf ball warehouse.  Which company balls do you prefer Precept or Pinnacle.  Thanks to all who post.


I've never played Precepts so I can't compare the two.  Out of the many 2 piece balls out there I've tried, I found the Pinnacles to feel best off the club face.  Of the Pinnacle line,  the Soft FX, now called "Precision" was the best followed by the Gold Longs.  Great balls that hold up well and feel pretty good on the putter too.


I am currently trying some Precept Laddies and like them ok so far. I have only played about 1 round with them.  I was previously using Noodles, and I can't say they are better or worse. FWIW, I like the Noodle Practice pretty well for casual play, and they are 2 dozen for 14.86 at Wallyworld.

If you ever have 20 bucks to burn, go to a Golf Galaxy (or similar) and have a ball fitting down.  Based on what your swing does to the ball (ball speed, launch angle, spin rate, carry distance, etc.) they'll give you a printout showing which balls for your swing will maximize distance, less side spin, etc.

What's in the Bag:
Driver: Taylormade SLDR 12*
3-wood: Taylormade Burner 15*
Hybrid: Taylormade Burner 19*
Irons: Callaway XR

Wedges: Vokey 50*, 54*, 58*
Putter: Scotty Newport Studio


Depends on what you like.  Between the two, and depending on the mix, I prefer Precept (Laddie is a decent ball in that category).


I alway use Pinnicales. No real reason, I just like them.

my get up and go musta got up and went..

Both are quality companies.  Pinnacles are made by Titleist and Precepts are made by Bridgestone.  IMO, you cant go wrong either way.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

Woods: :mizuno: JPX 850 9.5*, :mizuno: JPX 850 15*, :mizuno: JPX-850 19*, :mizuno: JPX Fli-Hi #4, :mizuno: JPX 800 Pro 5-PW, :mizuno: MP T-4 50-06, 54-09 58-10, :cleveland: Smart Square Blade and :bridgestone: B330-S


Balls should be matched to your swing speed. The right ball for you gives more spin, distance and accuracy.

I have a slow swing speed and use Lady Precepts.

    • A strong grip cups the wrist (lead) and then it wants to flatten through impact, something I used to be able to avoid to keep it from going left and protecting my forearm (the main premise of my set up). Longer the club, harder it is becoming. Either way, yes, I need to transition to gripping it open. 
    • Why don't you grip it "open" so you can return your hand to the place where you're comfortable/not sore, but the ball won't go left? It's effectively weaker… without actually "being" weaker?
    • Day 47 - 2024-11-16 Light backswing work with about 3 or 4 rehearsals for every ball hit. Only about ten minutes while waiting for a potential member to show up (he was 25 minutes late). 😛 
    • Idk but I would have to imagine that a putter that is aimed where you think it's aimed would be the most important aspect of a putter
