i game AD333's there my prefered ball, but as i won a dozen trispeeds just wondering how the 2 balls differ from each other?


Posted

a buddy of mine who has a lower handicap than i was playing the ad's and couldn't generate any spin at all. He had quite a few errant drives as well. I played a round with trispeed tours a few days ago and I felt like my drives were staying straighter and even put some good spin on the ball. Sports Authority has em for 20 bucks right now, i may need to stock up!

The worst day of golf beats the best day of work!

The TriSpeeds are a little bit softer and spin a little bit more than the AD333s.

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

Personally, I used to love the TriSpeeds. Great distance off of my driver with low spin off the deck. Easy to check up on the green with moderate roll out for what the ball is and what it costs.

I now use, what for me is basically an equal but for some reason I hit it better, the HX Diablo by Callaway. Similar pricing (perhaps $5.00 cheaper). Not off-topic because my point is that if you end up liking the TriSpeeds, check out the HX Diablo. Similar results and less on the wallet which is always a good thing. See Srixon Q-Star vs similar quality balls at $10.00 more per dozen.

I found Trispeeds to spin more around the green and feel a little softer, otherwise I saw similar distance.

Depends what you want: distance or spin and even then you arent giving up much spin with the AD333.  Ive tried both and I actually prefer the AD333.  It goes farther, flies straighter and if you hit it crisp it still gets plenty of spin to stop on the green.

got some ad333 as a gift and used them on Sunday. decent ball. spun one back 10 feet on a full shot but didn't get much check on chips. I will probably use them up on first time courses.

I have 8 dozen of each in my garage, and have used nothing but SrixonAD333s for 15 years. Slow senior swingspeed, 20 handicap. Have tried many other soft golf balls, none better than AD333/s.

The Tri Speeds have better spin, however, I get same distance from both balls. Trispeeds cost 50% more than AD333 ($30 vs $20 MSRP).

Presently, AD333's can be found for $25/2doz.

The reason I bought Trispeeds was price. I bid on EBay and bought 6 doz for $14/doz including shipping.

Srixon is going to replace both TriSpeeds and AD333s with Qstars. Bad marketing on their part. See my comments under peartree.

The AD333s and TriSpeeds were nice but the Q-Stars are vastly superior.  Unless all you care about is cost, I dont see whats not to love about the Q-Stars.

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • 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?
