What ball???

[bigballer69]

So I went to a club fitter today and found out that my club head speed is around 110-120 and that my beginner driver is crap but my question is what ball should I be using?  I'm still a 20 handicap player with a slice and some* straight drives that are bombs.  I hit irons very good but that doesn't help when my drive is in the woods/water/rough and I like to have feel around the greens.  Also I can't afford a ProV1 or any crap like that cuz I'm only 16 and ain't got the dough.  Help please.

Try the Topflite Gamer V2.....it's a 3 piece ball for about $20/dozen

If you're looking for Titleist, the NXT series is sub $30, but the Topflite Gamer V2 is a good inexpensive ball as Fozcycle says.

Yeah I've heard all good stuff about the Gamer V2.  Lately I've tried the Nike Mojo and the Top Flite D2 straight and they were both good but I think my swing speed is a little to fast for the 2 piece.  I like the sound of going to a 3 piece.

At a 20 handicap, I suggest going with an inexpensive, distance ball (something in the $10-$25 a dozen range).  At this point, your ballstriking isnt consistent enough to get everything out of a premium ball, so youre better off with a more low-spin ball.

Granted, it wont check up on the greens as much, but right now youre not at a level where your short irons and wedges are precise enough to need that.
