Has anyone else played these recently.  I would like a comparison between the penta tp and the penta tp5.  I am almost out of the tp which I like so I am trying to decide between the old penta to save a few dollars and the tp5.  Thanks.

Are the Pentas still for sale?  Where and how much?  Fantastic ball; can't really compare it to the Penta TP5 as I haven't played the new ball.

I haven't seen the 2011 Pentas in stores since ~ February.  I'm sure you could buy them off of Ebay pretty easily though?  I've played both the TP 2011 and the TP5 2012 (bought a dozen when they first came out)... And couldn't distinguish a difference.

I still have 4 dozen of the TP 2011's though to burn through before I buy more balls.  And currently playing with a dozen Tour Z premium balls which I will be doing a review of shortly.

I've now played 3 rounds with the new TP5's and I have to say I'm quite impressed.  They seem to be noticeably longer off the tee than what I was playing before (Nike Tour One) and also longer than the original Penta TP.  It's been a while since I've played the Pro V and Pro V1, so I don't have that to compare to.

If anyone is wanting a premium ball at a non-premium price, and you can still find the buy 2 get 1 free deal, I'd definitely recommed the TP5.  For an average of $30/dozen, I don't think you're going to find anything that can compete with them.

    • I'm at 330 I think. I have a spreadsheet with all of them in it. It helps having lived in two countries. 159 in the US and 136 in the UK. Then a handful in Europe and a few in other countries (Canada, Australia, Mexico). 
    • First Birdie of the year at Links of Sandpiper in Lakeland Fl, 450ys Par 5, Pulled driver to left rough trying to cut corner, Left myself 194 in uphill, hit my 5 iron to 8 feet. Unfortunately greens were in terrible shape and it was a sliding right to left putt, hit a nasty piece of dead spot and hopped left for a missed eagle putt with a 6 inch tap in for bird. 
    • Was Talking with a buddy last night and got to thinking how many different courses we have played and was a little underwhelmed at my count. I assumed I was around 100 give or take. After about an hour of racking my brain I realized Im right at or just above 60. There could be a few that I cant recall or don't have record of but overall felt like that was a decent number. 55 in Florida, 2 in Arizona, 1 in New Hampshire, 1 in Michigan, and 1 in Indiana.  Now a new goal of getting to that 100 courses. Plan is to get to 75 by end of year and have dates of courses already set to get me to 70 so 75 shouldn't be out of question.  Below is the list of courses:  State Courses AZ Phoenician AZ The Legacy FL Abbey Course at St. Leo FL Babe Zaharias FL Bardmoor FL Bent Tree FL Big Cypress Exec FL Big Cypress South FL Bloomingdale FL Bobcat Trail FL Champions Gate FL Chi Chi Rodriguez FL Clearwater Country Club FL Club Renaissance  FL Copperhead FL Countryway FL Cove Cay FL Cypress Creek FL Diamond Hill FL Falcons Fire FL Fox Hollow FL Freedom Fairways FL Greenfield Plantation FL Hawks Landing FL Heritage Harbour Bradenton FL Heritage Harbour Land o Lakes FL Heritage Isles FL Highlands Reserve FL lake Jovita North FL Lake Jovita South FL Lexington Oaks FL Links at Greenfield Plantation FL Links of Lake Bernadette FL Links of Sandpiper Lakeland FL Northdale FL Plantation Palms FL River Hills FL Rocky Point FL Rogers FL Saddlebrook- Plamer FL Saddlebrook- Saddlebrook FL Sandpiper Lakeland FL Sandpiper Suncity FL Scepter Golf Club Falcon FL Shalamar FL Seminole Lake Country Club FL Silver Dollar FL Silverado FL Streamsong Red FL Sugarmill Woods Cypress FL Sugarmill Woods Pine FL Summerfield FL Temple Terrace FL Waterlefe FL Wentworth FL Westchase FL World Woods Pine Barrons IN Rock Hollow MI Ravines NH Brookside  
    • Shoot, forgot to post for day 20:  hit a couple of buckets at the range just focusing on form.     Day 21:  putting practice in the garage gaging my speed/distance.
