I play the Titleist 695 Mb irons and I am having a great time with them (got them for Christmas). In the past couple of weeks I have really learned to laugh at myself with the bad shots. The main reason I wanted these irons is because I felt I could hit the same shot consistantly with cavity backs, but the lack of feedback left me wondering how good my swings really were. I got my answer :(

I have a collection of sea shells that my son put in my bag during a round of golf a few years ago. Everytime I clean my bag, as seldom as that is, I make sure I put my lucky sea shells back in the bag.

Ty - Thank you for the link. Based on that chart I have the correct balls in mind to test. golfchief - I am very jealous of your life. 6 days a week is amazing.

I appreciate the feedback. In face, I am forced to change my swing just to keep from chunking the shots. So in some way, I am fading the ball on purpose. My options are to fade the ball or chunk it, the fade usually ends up closer to the hole. For anyone that plays a draw with your irons - Do you play your right elbow as far inside on your iron swings as you do with your woods?

Thank you John Boy and puttmaster - Bridgestone B300S - I will add that to my list of golf balls to try. John Boy - How does the noodle compare to the Pro V1 as far as distance / spin? I am below average in driving distance so the distance is an important factor to me.

I am a right handed golfer. I have played for way to long to not know the answer to this... When using my driver / 3-wood my right elbow makes a right angle at the top and travels down close to my right hip on the down swing. This gives me a little draw and is exactly what I want out of my woods. When I try to do the same thing with my irons I chunk 50% of the shots and the other 50% are not solid hits. To stop the embarrassing shots my iron swings are less inside out and I have a little fade on the longer irons. What can I do to get my irons to react the same as my woods do?

Based on the following article, it depends on the situation. http://golf.about.com/cs/rulesofgolf...aq_oneball.htm

Thank you. I am in a price range only because it will get expensive really fast to test every $4 ball on the market. If I find that the Pro V1 is the best ball for me I will have no problem spending the money on them. I have used a Noodle before and it seems to be the longest ball I have ever hit. It is possible that I was swinging better the days I used those, but who knows. Thanks again everyone for all of your help.

Q3 - I was exaggerating. I'm sorry if you spent time searching your inventory for a matching quote. pmcarync - Thank you for your help. I have an aggressive swing to make up the distance I lose on off-center hits. Based on what you listed the HX Tour sounds like the best ball for me. I will try that. BB69 - I know that a lot of people play the Pro V1, including a lot of tour players. To me that means it must be a quality ball, but I'm pretty sure the way it responds to my swing is different than the tour players that use it. The Pro V1 and HX Tour are both on my list of golf balls to try in the near future. I hope the result is worth paying more than double my usual $19.99 for a dozen DT So/Lo balls. Does anyone else have any other suggestions?

I am currently using Titleist DT So/Lo golf balls because the price is right and it has "long" in the name. When you look at the packaging or advertisements every golf ball is the longest ball ever made and every one of them guarantees enough control to get a hole in 1 every time. It's like basing your dinner plans on who was voted the #1 buffet in Las Vegas. Who's telling the truth?

I'm too young to remember a lot of Jack's prime. I think Tiger's better today :)
