Your 2016 golf ball

potbunker

So what is your ball for 2016?

I have played the B330RX with good success and like the fact they are now made in the US.

I usually buy last years version / urethane model (discount pricing on closeout), but this year there seems to be too many good upgrades.

Plus, my bag will be 100% new, so why not the ball also?

For this year I am going to do a shootout with starting from the green and working back to the tee:
2016 B330RX USA made
2016 B330RXS USA made
2016 Callaway Chrome** USA made
maybe: Wilson Staff Urethane Duo

Just saw the price of Pro V's..........................$48, don't think so.

Release

Got lots golf ball still in the boxes.
Some from 2015, some from a few years back. I don't think I'll add to these since I don't play any high sloped rating golf courses from the back anymore.

The only "new" golf balls I might be interested in trying could be something soft and with a little control.

Was looking at several labels but the guy I know behind the counter told me the Pinnacle Soft is as good as any of those..... ?

darpar

Agree on the B330RXS!
Been buying these for a while at Kohls with NO issue regarding quality.

Love the B330S and as a cheaper alternative, the E5.

I have some TM Lethals to use up and some Callaway Hex Controls.
Also have some Callaway Hex blacks and Chromes I use for "tricked up" greens on fancy courses.

I miss the Strata Tour Ace golf balls and the Srixon Hi Spins.
Both were my fav all round golf balls for playability and price.

CallMeAl

Been using the Gamer Soft for awhile now. Cost/Performance wise, it's one of the best balls for my game. Besides, I have 8-9 boxes to use before I go looking for something else.

I do like the Chrome Soft and the E6 as well, but they're pricier than the Gamer.

As long as I keep winning bets with Pigdivot, I'll be playing Pro V 1's.

pike51 with as many balls as you lose per round, we'll need to make a lot more wagers, and soon. 😉

FauxAmish

Sticking with TM Project (a). Just ordered two more dozen.

FauxAmish I snagged a dozen of last years model of the Project (a) for $26. should have bought two. Very nice urethane covered ball.

I've been playing the Wilson Staff FG Tour for several generations of that ball and love it. When they introduced the FG Tour X I switched to that but they have now just gone to one model. I still have about 2 dz of last years model and at the rate I'm playing I'm still good for a bit.

Still have a mix of 30 or 40 old balls to loose before I go buy new. Was cleaning the garage a couple weeks ago and found a box of Dunlop Super Locos. I had bought some many years ago when I was playing the standard Loco and put them aside when I found I lost 20 yards off the tee due to too much spin. Been so long since I played that it doesn't matter anymore - those will be the first in the rotation this year. Like the hype around the Chrome Soft though and will probably try it after I clean everything else out and knock some rust off my swing.

I found some of my favorite balls on line that are no longer made by Srixon. The ZStar sl yellow so I bought 3 dozen and am set for 2016. If I run out I have a couple dozen of the Callaway Chrome Soft yellow to back them up. I forgot I also have a dozen Titleist NXT Tour s yellow balls.

Weirfan

Same ball I've used for 3 years.
Srixon Z star
Sometimes the Q-star

Won some of the New Taylor Made tp's and my course was giving them out at mens night each week, horrible ball IMO.

Tried a Snell in Zona last year, that wasnt a bad ball.

PIGDivot

It's still in the testing stage, but I bought a dozen of mggolf.com C4 tour ball that they say is as good or better than the ProV1 for $19.99. So far I am impressed; I got some wicked spin and stick out of them around the greens. Seems better than the two piece Titleist I am currently torturing myself with.

mcflog

Whatever is on sale.

Gamer Tour .

Just picked up 6 dozen Strata Tour Advantage for $6 a dozen. One round played not disappointed

LogicalOne

mcflog I was curious about this ball. I see them for $7.96 at budgetgolf.com and was going to pull the trigger on a few dozen. Where did you get them for $6.00, if you do not mind me asking?

d5n03

Been using Srixon AD333's & QStars the last few years. Found & used a ZStar late last season - liked it around the greens. Going to try TM Project a on a friend's suggestion. Also going to try some Maxfli U6 balls that I picked up at GolfWorks last fall for cheap - see if I like those.

sdandrea1

Whatever I can by with Dick's store credit or GlobalGolf reward points. Right now I have 2 doz Nike PD Soft and 2 doz Cally Super Soft. They work as good as anything I have tried.

raggmann54

$19.95 a dozen or less. Got some mggolf I can't wait to try. My game isn't good enough anymore to pay more for a golf ball.

LBlack14

Srixon Tri-speed Tours
Cally HX Diablo Tours, Chromes, Hex Controls
B'stone E5, E6 & B330 RX
ProV1 & X

mulegolf

I agree with the Z-Star SL's. I have a couple dozen of those to use this year, as well as 3 dozen Callaway HX Diablo Tours and a couple dozen Srixon Tr--Speed Tours. All of my Srixon balls are the bright yellow versions. I really like them in the spring after a long winter off. It seems easier to follow them off the club and in the air than the white balls when we first start playing each spring.

TF d2+ feel, Snell MTB, and Maxfli u6 LC (original model).
