I admit I have a little troubling following the flight of my ball on drives.  I was using the lime color Callaway Supersoft and found it easier to see than the white, so when they introduced the bright orange I bought a dozen of those.

I don't know if any of you have used the orange balls, but I find them extremely hard to see.  Not only in flight but even when they are lying on the fairway.

So now Callaway has yellow and blue.

What ball do you all find easiest to see?  (I'd make this a poll question but don't know how)

Thanks

Click edit, the little pencil at the bottom of your post and then once in edit mode look at the bottom of the page (lower left I believe) and you see the "add a poll" option. I prefer white so, no help there...

I 100% love that bright yellow Sirxon Z star XV....  I bought a few dozen at Dick's when the new ones came out ($24 a dozen compared to $48 for the new ones)...  I accidentally bought some of the tour yellow... and now I'm hooked.

I put this in the wrong place, how do I move it into "Balls, etc."?

I can definitely see the bright yellow better in low light conditions.

There are days where the white balls disappear in the clouds.   On a typical cloudy Michigan day though, I like white.    I do like the bright yellow as an alternative.

I like the color of the Pinnacle Bling purple, but man that ball is hard to see. I really like the green Volvik Vista iV. I posted this in another thread. :-) It really is easy to see.

I do have to say, Yellow is a pain in the arse if you hit it by a driving range with yellow golf balls....  that doesn't help.. Steer clear of range overflow!!!

brightest ball I've ever played - I play these when playing alone - only ball I can see in flight (its completely different than any other orange ball on the market - it practically glows )

^Thx Phil ... I like white balls too but can't pick them up if there's clouds in the sky & I keep my head down like I'm supposed to ... those orange balls are amazing against a cloudy sky
