What Ball is your favourite?

[asianpsuation]

i love the one platinum, not quite as spinny as the hex tour, but overall a good ball. prov's and the tp taylormades are sick too, but the good ol' range ball is a must when ur tired and on those pain in the ass driving holes.

Callaway HX hots when its cold out. But most of the time Titleist Pro V1's. Love that ball.

I like and play the Bridgestone E5 most of the time, I really like the way it feels coming off the clubhead. When I can afford them I really like the TaylorMade TP Red's, long and soft but a bit pricey.

I can´t stand the new type of balls like the Pro V1, I always get the Titleist Professionals off Ebay, thats the best ball ever I think.

Can you elaborate? Is the V1 too hard...has less spin...too expensive...not workable...etc...?

The "feel" is really awkward (spelling? i´m swedish... :D). I´t feels a bit hard, but it´s no rock, the spin i s enough, the price is terrible, as with all premium golf balls. It´s probably a terrific ball, but I personally don´t like it, then again, I still haven´t found a spoon I like more than the Orlimar Trimetal

Greatings all,

If I find a pro v1, I'll hoard it like a squirrel

Serioulsy, though I just buy what ever is on sale from the major manufactures. Last year consumer reports did a test on golf balls, and found that "Iron Byron" stuck balls, pretty much went the same distances. However, used balls retrieved from a water hazards are not good balls to play a round with. These balls however make a great shag balls!

So I started out using the Taylor Made Speed, at first the ball and I had a love-hate relationship. It loved the trees and I hated hitting it in there. It seems that the problem was not the ball but the monkey holding on the end of the club (ie. me). Since realigning my swing I have found that this ball is sweet! It goes long on the drive and stops on a dime!

I am sure that many balls will do the same thing, but I am a strong believer that if you have confidence in a part of your game and it is working for you, don't change it! If it aint broke, don't fix it!

Nike ONE black is my favorite but very close is Callaway HX Tour and about even with that is the Bridgestone B330.

The best new ball for the buck now is the TopFlite D2 feel. Amazing ball for $16 for 15 balls...

Thanks...I loved the old Professional too. Other than the ProV1...the Taylormade Red is a good premium ball...it's about 4$-5$ less than the new ProV1. The ProV1 is my mainstay for it's length and feel for me. However, the quality of balls out there at different price points is really great for any swing out there.

I have a tough time sticking with a ball but I mainly use ProV1X's

I like some of the other 3 piece balls (prov, nike plat, b330, hxtour) but I lose distance with them. The spin rate is just to high... if I play any tournaments or serious rounds I have to use the prov1x

[Rusterson]

HX Hots!!! Cheaper, longer and good feel.

[The Rambler]

NXT Tour by a long shot Golf Digest(something like)--- "hit these for a $3 less per ball and see if you miss it's older brother"

[Mongo]

What about Hogans? Does anybody play em?

[907golfer12]

NXT Tour, mainly because I love the feel, and I get pretty good spin out of them. Also they are cheaper then the ProV1/x. but like many people have said, if I have the money I will get ProV1/x's.
