Are these golf balls any good?


I currently play Bridgestone e7's and have never really liked any Nike golfballs. The reason I ask this question is because I won some at a golf outing and want to know peoples opinion on the ball before I decide to play a round or two with them and go on to post my scores for handicap. If they have worse greenside spin then the e7 it may not be worth playing. I also realize they are a very cheap balls but sometimes the cheap ones can surprise you. Any information regarding Mojo's is appreciated.

I played mojo balls at the start of the summer as they were given as a gift from my parents. The green side spin leaves a lot left to be desired. I usually play a pro v1 and where the pro v1 checks the Nike mojo glides another 5-10 feet across the green. I can get plenty of spin on them from 100+ yards to stop it on the green but green side shots roll out quite a bit.

For me (13 handicap, 93 MPH swing speed), it does not do much.  It's not long compare to other balls I use.  And if you have been using Bridgestone E7s, you will be disappointed with this one.   I'd use Mojos on new courses with lots of water hazard .

So from the sounds of it these aren't worth hitting, lol. I'll probably give them to a coworker. If you're swing speed is in the low 90's and you don't like them then I for sure won't.

Theyre OK.  Nothing special but they are low spin, so if you struggle with a slice or hook they should work well for you.

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • 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.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • 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?
