Yeah, i told you to excuse the unusual English.  But i really like how those folks manufacture the ball.  A nice photo display of the process makes it very clear that they start with a blob of super good Nobel prize chemicals and either vacuum or inject: presto, a complete seamless ball. Amazing.  If you look around at that site you  will find many other balls including a Ruby colored. I have a pea-green golf ball so i know it's all possible. We can  have a chuckle at the Japanese golf nuts but in fact are they any different from us?  A new hyped up product, ball/driver/putter etc hits the US market and suddenly everyone wants one. The herd mentality runs through every human.

Rather than writing a new thread, I did a search and dug this thread up.

I had a chance to compare Lethal with Titleist Tour Distance (TTD for short) ball for a round.  Clearly, Lethal is a high launching ball and straight.   Although the ball seems to jump out of my club, due to its high trajectory, I would not consider this a long ball.   My mishit TTD often rolled further.

My old Nike Tour D was definitely longer than the Lethal. However, I did notice the Lethal checks up considerably more on pitches and chips....

      Hey, thanks for the feedback. I do lift weights but I’m also adding yoga or Pilates for mobility and flexibility to my routine.

      Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.

      It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.

      Maintaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.

      Golf Workouts

      I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
