Sacrifice FEEL for FUNction

[MBGLvr13]

I'm more of a feel player, I can feel when I do some thing wrong but can't replicate it when I feel that I'm doing something right. However, I love the feel of softer golf balls like the Wilson FG Tour and DUO, but they just don't hold the green like some of the other firmer balls, (Callaway Hex Black). I picked up a box of refurbed 20Xi-Xs recently. The feel of this ball is awful, the flight is low, but the spin back is ridiculous. I played a par three course recently and could not believe how much i was backing the ball up. My question to you all out there is, how many of you play a Pro V1 type ball over something softer b/c its more fun to watch it back up or b/c you think that it will give you better results when you feel that its not the ball for you?

I don't spin the ball back. I typically stop the ball close to my ball mark, but almost always past it. I play tour balls for this reason. If I play the "feel" balls, they don't stop. I love the feel of the NXT Tour S, but they don't check on the green for me. They don't check on pitches as well.

I love the NXT series of balls, I can't tell the difference in the Tour and Tour S. I don't seem to stop the S any quicker. They do a little quicker than the Velocity which is hot but doesn't stop very quick. Of course they're not advertised to either. I Iike the old Hex Chrome, it seems to go pretty good and stop fairly well.

I felt like the NXT TOUR S was a softer ball after finding two on the course and trying them out then i did some research and found out that it is a softer 2piece version of the NXT, i guess its a little firmer than the DT Solo, but anyway you'll love the new chrome, its soft and stops pretty well
