I just thought I would post my recent experience...

A few years ago a golf friend and I discovered how great this ball is, however my back went out last year... and apparently I forgot. I started this year playing with my old usual... the prov1x... and the ball performed as great as always. A few days ago I saw the d2feel at dick's and got a box. After lots of short game practice comparing the D2, zstar xv, and bridgestone b330 I've found that there really isn't much difference. In fact I've left pitch shots short as we all have... :) so I thought I'd put it in play for a round.

It only took me 2 holes to realize that I'm always going to be playing this ball. In my opinion the fact that this ball holds its line so well, makes it superior to its expensive counterparts. I know this ball has been talked about, I just thought i'd add my thoughts. I should also add that I shoot typically between 75 and 80 at a fairly tough course.

Just buy some and try them... I bet you can still leave a chip short :)

I'm gonna order a top flite towel and glove to show my true colors.

I'll admit that I'm not overly fussy about my golf ball.  But I still agree that Top Flite is making fine golf balls these days...and hopefully Dick's continues the trend.  I often play the D2 Feel and Gamer and like them both.

On full swings the D2 flies high enough to stick to a green.  It's the close pitch shots where I notice the benefit of the golf balls with urethane covers like the Zstar.

      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

      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?
