Right on post. I have been playing for 55 years. When I was in my 20's I routinely shot in the mid to high 80's. Yet in my whole life I have never broken 80. Not once. The frustration of that caused me to quit the game for years at a time. Now I am a hacker who routinely hits in the high 90's.My game is still crap. So why on earth if I can get a ball that does not put me in the desert or the ocean as much... why on earth shouldn't I use that ball? Since I too don't bet on my game or play tournaments, who other than me really gives a damn about my game? If you care so much about my game that you want to dictate what ball I hit, then your sphincter IS too tight.
