I tried the Wilson Fifty ball in cold weather this fall and just loved it. I am looking at Wilson's other ball, specifically Zip. Anyone have any experience with Wilson golf balls. Wilson no longer seems to be talked about much in golf circles and I was somewhat surprised I was so impressed with the Wilson Fifty.

Talking about golf balls, I just bought a box of Prov1 brand new at a sporting good store for $29.99 with tax it was $32.24. They had a 25% discount on the $39.99 box.

I am going out to try to buy another box, since today is the last day for the sale.

I have not played the Wilsons and never heard of the Zip.

You may have had over 100 views but many are not members so they can't reply. I've notice some days theirs 4 members and 60 vistors.

I saw that, today, too. I think I'll give both balls a try. FWIW, I started a thread a few weeks ago which posed the question," which ball do you use in the colder months?" The Wilson ball may be the one for me. Now, if only I can find it!

FWIW, Crazy_Horst and myself both are Wilson Staff loyalists and play their equipment...to those that got game.

Find it? Hmmm...

    • 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.
