I found a deal for 24 Tommy Armour balls for $20, so I went with that.

Usually, given my high handicap and my talent for losing balls, I haven't had the nerve to spend a lot of money on balls. As of right now, my bad is mostly full of the Nike Mojo (which I can't stand), and the Tommy Armour (which aren't nearly as bad).

The Nike Black Vapors are on sale at my local PGA Tour Superstore so I may try to pick up a pack or two of those and see how it goes.

Srixon Q stars are good balls for players that need less spin and titleist NXT are good also just a bit more expensive but have a softer feel. I play z stars but if I were to downgrade I think it woul

No real assortment. I play the Penta TP5 almost exclusively. Though I have a couple of boxes of 20XI-S balls, and will take a sleeve of them once in a while. I rarely lose a ball, so once I open a sleeve, they are what i'm playing for 3 rounds with. After 18 holes, the ball is either thrown out or thrown in my practice ball pail. But the Penta TP5 is the best ball i'veevr used. Nothing else I have touched compares, ot the ProV1, not the Q-star, or the 20XI, or Tour One. None of the come close. The Penta is longer off the Tee, better around the green, and feels perfect off the putter. It is my go to ball.

In the Ogio Kingpin bag:

Titleist 913 D2 9.5* w/ UST Mamiya ATTAS 3 80 w/ Harrison Shotmaker & Billy Bobs afternarket Hosel Adaptor (get this if you don't have it for your 913)
Wilson Staff Ci-11 4-GW (4I is out of the bag for a hybrid, PW and up were replaced by Edel Wedges)
TaylorMade RBZ 5 & 3 Fairway Woods

Cobra Baffler T-Rail 3 & 4 Hybrids

Edel Forged 48, 52, 56, 60, and 64* wedges (different wedges for different courses)

Also tried some Nike PD Softs and they were nice too. I like a soft feeling ball.

Going to pick up a dozen Srixon Z-Stars tomorrow. Dicks has them on sale for $30 (usually $45).

Usually a ProV1 guy, but I've played the Srixon Q-star for two rounds and I liked it. So I figured I'd try their premium ball as well.

E5.. but after finding a qstar on the course I bought a dozen to put in play. Seemed to compress real well with irons and felt a little softer off the driver for me..

Now is a great time shop if you're a golfer. This is better than Christmas. I've never seen so many clubs, balls, and apparel on sale so early in the season. Too bad I shot my wad earlier in the season for driver ,fairway and a couple of hybrids I picked up two dozen RBZ urethane balls at Golfsmith. With the coupon, I got them for about the price of the TP3 now.

Ping G400 Max 9/TPT Shaft, TEE EX10 Beta 4, 5 wd, PXG 22 HY, Mizuno JPX919F 5-GW, TItleist SM7 Raw 55-09, 59-11, Bettinardi BB39

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
