I am also interested.

The Duo Spin is a 3 piece low compression ball, similar to the TF Gamer Soft that I currently play (and have had good results with). The Wilson balls are more widely available, similarly priced, and I have a soft spot for Wilson so I would not be disinclined to switch if I could get similar or better results. :banana:

So they've finally released the Duo Spin?

I suspect this is simlar to or even the same as the DX3 soft which they've been selling in Europe as the softest multi-layer ball since 2013. The Duo Spin actually showed up on the USGA conforming ball list early in 2014, but then it seems they didn't release it until now. I was thinking they were probably waiting as stock of the older FG Tours was selling off at around where they wanted to price this.

With the Duo selling well in the $20 range, I figured they'd what to price a 3-piece version in the $25-30 range, and then keep the price at $35+ on the newer 4-piece FG Tour.

Basically it sounds like a Duo, but with the DuPont HPF mantle layer presumably allowing for lower spin on drives and longer shots and higher spin around the green.

Just got back back from course the new duo is marshmellow soft not in a bad way feels like you can crush it. When I purchased them they gave me 2pk. Sample of the Chrome Soft this ball is sick good it stops on a dime and distance is amazing.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
