The most visible golf ball

My buddy was playing the orange version of Volvik Crystal. I think it’s easier to see than any other ball color I’ve seen. It’s more melon color rather tha...

None of the current lineup is similar enough? That seems weird...

JoeHatesSnow the black is similar but not as good....not as much spin into the green, notice it more on those partials, chips and pitches! And the MTB is a tad longer. Black is good but not quite MTB good. Haven't tried the MTB-X to compare....likely next year!

Maybe MTB-X is the one for you then. I have been using Z Star for a long time now, nothing I tried could touch it for me but ProV1 X and I wasn't going to pay for those as Srixon would always have a deal at some point. Plus I got used to yellow. The Snell spins just as well for me but still seems better in the wind for some reason than the Srixon. It also seems to be longer off the driver, and as Rickochet mentioned the color is a little brighter yellow-green. I will do some more comparison in the spring as I still have some Srixons left but I feel like the Snell has dethroned the Z Star for me.

Mtbx I think you will like. Played it all this year after a short test against the Cut golf ball. Have about two dozen left and will add some Snell yellows for next year. The spin into greens is the thing that has convinced this old timer.

The z star has always been short off the driver for me.....otherwise really like how it performs in every other category.

Sarnella I can’t believe it took that long

I'm not going to a high visibility ball. I can only imagine seeing the ball, shining up at me in all its vibrant glory, at the bottom of the pond, mocking me.

Here's one for Spuzz.

Rickochet Sadly - that is my wife's current favorite ball and in that color. Happily, she seems to hit it better than any other ball she's ever tried.

I play both the Red-ish and Neon Vice balls, I find them both easy to read but does require an adjustment the first couple of time playing.

My whole thing with colored balls is being able to see them in flight. I like matt green. I have been playing Zero Tolerence green and love em. Bought a glove( also great, one size fits all and I have big hands) and it came with 2 balls and some tees. Ball plays great and I ordered another glove and a dozen balls.

is the green easier to see in flight? It’s not good in the grass for me.

Humble brag

Tinker

DonM hate to say it but I find pink easy to see in flight. Green is good for me and there are many choices

If I tried the blue ones I'd need about 50 of them to get through the round as I'd never see them.

I don't like blue balls either.

DID YOU KNOW: A golf ball will perform differently if it is wet vs. when it’s dry. Golfers need to know how much difference there is and why it matters.
WET WEDGE SHOTS:
Carry increased by approximately 2.5 yards
Spin decreased by approximately 2500 RPM
Launch angle increased by over 5°
Peak height increased by 5 yards
Also, cheaper (2-piece) balls and matte finish balls are affected more significantly by moisture.

my buddy Chad is a huge human being. He wears a 4xL in gloves and he’s a size 18 in shoes. We had him lay out his hand on a piece of paper one time and traced around it. It took up the entire 8x11 sheet of paper 😱

for some reason when he was single he was very popular with the ladies 😂

When. After all these year, did white become so hard to see that we all of the sudden needed 90 colors for golf balls?

I know years ago they had yellow and Orange but it went away.

But the colored balls are so purdy

Par4QC

Typhoon When everyone on forums started hitting them over 300. I've lost sight of far too many, in my forum years. Still do/am, in fact. 😁

Typhoon I remember they had a bright neon pink ball that had the name flying lady on it. I found a few of those in the riverbed next to the course. A buddy and I used to scrounge up OB balls, clean them up and sell them to the course for about $.25 ea. We made enough that it was worth the extra cleaning, we were screwing around in the riverbed anyway.

The most visible golf ball? One in the middle of the fairway or on the green, Duh!
