HI

What balls are you playing at the moment and how much do you pay !

Currently playing PRO V1 and pay €20 for 3

But been practising with TM penta TP at €18 for 3

i find the TP stands up to a bit more abuce where as the face of the Pro V1 gets cut up more by a hard wedge

I buy whatever tour quality ball I can get for the least amount of money. Right now that would be Niki Tours.

I tried my first sleeve of new ProV1's yesterday.  This is the first time I'd hit them other than a found one. I must say, even with my mediocre skills, I can feel the difference. They are a cut above everything else I have tried except maybe Zstars and at least equal to those.  Only problem is a sleeve cost almost what I pay for 2 dozen Noodle practice, so don't think they'll be my everyday ball anytime soon.

Right now in the wet and cold of WA, either the D2 Feel 2 dz for $18 (2 for 1 special) or the Gamer v2 also 2 dz for $18 (same special).  Played 18 yesterday, 9 with each ball, and other than the Gamer putting better on slow greeens, they both played quite well.  When things warm up and firm up, I switch to TM TP Red's that I got for $21 during the Walmart clearance.

In my Bagboy cart bag:
Driver: TM R11s 10.5 R-flex 3W: TM 09 Burner 3H: TM 09 Burner Irons: TM Tour Burner 4-PW r-flex
Wedges: Wilson TW9 GW, Ping Eye 2+ SW, Vokey SM 58.08      Putter:TM Rossa Spider Ball: TM TP/Red LDP, TF Gamer v2   Range Finder: GX-I

Noodle Tour LTD.  I only bought a dozen though and now I can't find them anymore.  Its a shame they are pretty nice and I only paid $12 for the dozen.

Probably going to get some Srixon AD-333's from lostgolfballs.com soon.

I use TaylorMade Burner Tour for general playing and Srizon Z-Stars/TaylorMade Penta for any tournament rounds.

It's a toss up between Top Flite Gamer V2 - $20 a dozen and Precept Laddie X - $24 for two dozen.
I got a bunch of the Gamers the other day for $8 a dozen because they were on clearance.

      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

      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?
