In the kids' world, probably. In the slightly more grown up world, not so much. If Ricky attracts a younger audience, great.

If you first look like a traffic cone, I don't believe using an orange ball would make a whole lot of difference.

It's kinda fun though, the only difference between Ricky and Gary Player is the color.

Wearing all orange is a bit louder though.



Yes, the only difference between Rickie Fowler and Gary Player is orange versus black.

You don't think that the fact that he is using one might give you a clue?

Were you expecting someone to say. "No. Balls have to be white."?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Player wore black to "absorb the energy of the sun".

Fowler wears orange because it's a lucrative marketing ploy. Not quite the same.

Gary Player was (and is) a very kooky guy. And I mean that in a nice way. He had and has some very odd beliefs.

Not the least of which was being the first pro to really embrace working with weights. That exercise would explain those calf muscles!

Yeah I know, but some don't. Did you check that list? He put his senior skins games on there too.

    • I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family
    • First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
