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.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By BabaYaga ·

      39-35 today for a +2 (74) on a 72.6/129. Struggled over the first few holes as I bogeyed five straight to start. Wasn't even striking the ball bad - just couldn't hit a green and didn't hit good chips + one penalty. Then I went -3 over the next 6 to save the round and then parred the last 7. Golf is fun.

      The Holdovers. Birdie. I’m a big Paul Giamatti fan and felt this was an exceptional performance. The film has a great blend of comedy and heart felt drama.

      I rewatched this last night on HBO Max, and I re-affirm this. I loved Dune Par 1. It finally brought Dune to the big screen in the best way possible. Dune Part 2 is so much better, which is impressive. I like the direction they went with the characters in the story compared to the books. It was brought up to date in a good way. Yea, I am glad to see that they are working on Dune Part 3.

      Louisville Golf - Classic 50s Series - 4 Wood Persimmon

      By gbdoc0815 ·

      I love Louisville Golf's Niblicks, which they made for me decades ago and I began using again, though I now replaced the shafts for whippier ones (see my recent post). Unlike your photo, mine had steel bottoms. Forget about eBay, Louisville still makes them. They work much better for me than the modern metal woods.

      Went to the range today at Scottish Highlands in Salem NH. Worked on getting my chest turning away and then through the ball. Worked out well as shots had a little more distance and more consistent flights. Gained 20 yards with the few drivers I hit. They have a pretty good short game practice area so I spent a good half hour hitting chips and pitches.  After the range I went to the gym for a back workout. Went well and I'm excited to move forward with this new workout program.
