Looking for a ball that can be compressed with a 90 mph ss but gets good spin around the green and off low irons.

I'm almost out of the vapor speed balls and want to try something different and see if it makes a difference.

Also I know I'm a hacker but I don't lose alot of balls per round, maybe 1 or 2 max.

Any thoughts?

Just about any ball with a Wilson Staff logo fits that bill. Some are longer than others, but they're all low compression.

I agree with this as well. If you're looking for a little more of a bargain, I always suggest the Top Flite Gamer V2 ($15-$20).

+1 on the B330-RXS, but if you at hc 17.7 have some problem with too much side spin on the driver, woods, hybrids and long irons the B330-RX might be a better ball. Personally I found the B330-S to be a better mix of sidespin / backspin even though it is not made for 90 mph.

... Although I believe they're discontinued this year, the Bridgestone TreoSoft ball should fill the bill for you. There should be some deals around on them. Good luck.

play the srixon ad333 ball or the srixon soft feel ball very nice low compresion awsome feel with the putter and short game and still gets the distance the

ad333 ball compression is a 75 compression

soft feel ball compression is a 70 copression

and they are only 19.95 a dozen

knet golf has these listed as low compression balls.  As far as spin though I am not sure:

Srixon Soft Feel

Srixon Tri Speed

Taylormade TP Black

Taylormade TP Red

Callaway HX Hot Bite

Wilson Zipo

Bridgestone e6+

Bridgestone e7+

Bridgestone Tour B330RX

I am currently gaming the yellow version of the e6.  I have more of a sweeper swing so I don't generate much spin so I can't really tell if its got good spin or not.  I do know it does fly pretty straight.

36 holes with the same ball so far this year.  That has to be a record for me without a lost ball.

    • 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.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • 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?
