my normal ball is a 330rx

but I can hit other balls and they feel heavier?

Am I imagining it?

In my head a srixon z star feels "light" and others feels "heavy" off the clubface

make sense?

Golf balls may not weigh more than 1.620 Ounces. Slightly smaller or heavier balls go farther so the USGA and R&A; regulate the maximum size and weight. The British ball used to be smaller but now the rules are the same. I believe more manufacturers make balls as close to the maximum weight allowed.

would it be the density that makes a ball feel heavier?

    • I am listening to 23rd Street.  24 hours a day of cars, trucks, planes, sirens, and neighbors who start lawn mowers at 6:30am. I try to drown it out with 7,600 WAVE music files on a huge USB drive.  Mostly 1950's through 1990's music.
    • Thanks! Evolvr, for sure. My indoors setup is pretty close to ready. I want to add a few more lights as it's a pretty dark place to begin with (old barn). Plan to use my iPhone 14 Pro, 720p 240 FPS. I think I got a tripod somewhere, but I nail everything down so I'll make a small box I can just plop the phone into. That way I know it's always in the same spot and level. How does the setup look in terms of angles and stuff.  I saw that topic and bookmarked it for later. A technique where you want the head to move forward and down? I've been doing that for twenty years! (not on purpose) 😛 Looks fun, I'll certainly try it out. £7000. That's certainly "down the line". What would be a good price? Thanks. I'll probably hold off until at least winter comes and see where we're living at that point. For the next six months I'll combine indoor practice with the range, which helps.
