Srixon Z-Star or Bridgestone B330.  Pro V1s are overpriced and overrated.

First off, they're rarely more than $0-$5 more, and are almost never $10 except when someone's liquidating old balls or something. That's your opinion. The problem is you're sta

I went into GolfTown yesterday and almost cried when the guy told me they don't have the TP Black/LDP anymore....That ball plays like a ProV1X and is priced like the NXT Tour.

You might want to try the Bridgestone e5. it's a 2 piece ball I believe, but with a soft cover like the higher cost tour balls. Heard good things about them. I also buy used balls rated as mint condition. Quite a bit cheaper and basically like new condition.

My advice is to go shred some range balls, at least 100 or so, then play either the Pro V1 practice, X-outs or NXT Tours.  Those Vokeys really need a break in period anyway, although I find my red logo SMs bite nothing like my black logos did.  But that's probably due to a swing change on my part.

Possibly check out the Top-Flite Gamer V2s... good ball and they spin pretty well... not quite as much as a Pro V or something in that category, but at 1/2 the price nothing will.

The term *decent price* is all relative - generally you get what you pay for

Your looking for vendors that will ship to Australia.  Can't help you there.  In the U.S., GamerV2 are readily available on Ebay.  I just bought a case for 50% off list price.  How can you beat GamerV2s for $10/doz?

Are they somewhat durable? My Vokey is literally brand new and im just tearing up my NXT Tours..

The cover is the same material as tour balls I believe, so likely not much difference in durability. I play with Vokey wedges and they have a reputation for shredding balls for sure. I think buying mint used balls gets you the best of both worlds in terms of quality and price.

Thx for the tips about the stores.

I forgot to add "European" to online store.. (tristan, Austria != Australia *G*).

Buying from the US would be too expensive considering shipping and customs...

Srixon Q-Stars are decent spin balls and around $25/dz. You could also try lostgolfballs.com, you can pick up used but like new golf balls for A LOT less then they are new...for example, pro v1 for $10-$25/dz.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 1: After a long practice layoff due to injury, vacation, winter darkness, and work stuff, I'm trying to start back up again. Today I just hit balls with keys from my lesson 6-ish weeks ago; neutral grip and centered turn. Gonna work with that for a few weeks, see how it goes, and then get a lesson scheduled.

      The Ryder Cup Ticket Prices

      By Beastie ·

      It’s not live on free to air tv in the UK, and hasn’t been since 1995. ( I pay a subscription to Sky for generally good golf coverage). There are limited highlights on the BBC for some golf events, but that’s it. Are other/all PGA events on NBC?  Allowing ticket scalping is a systemic failure across sports and showbiz, which could be legislated against, but in the UK is not in any meaningful way. I don’t know much about the secondary market in the US or anti scalping measures.  Charging more to keep prices down is an interesting concept, in practice no doubt you are right even if It sounds a bit Catch 22  Do you think sports tickets and broadcast rights  should be sold on a purely capitalist basis, or is there an argument to say that some sports might benefit more from wider exposure and affordable access. ( golf in the US is apparently not one of these if tickets sold out at those prices so quickly)  Fans might benefit from cheaper tickets and in the UK at least, TV coverage that reaches a wider audience.
