I think the only rule is that the same ball has to be used for the entire hole that it's started with.
Looks like I will be putting in some practice with some Q-stars!

Here's a question, and maybe I'm over thinking it. But let's throw out a scenario. dhill tees one off dead straight in the fairway with his Q-star. Me with the second shot, I put it promptly right into the woods OB. Now do I drop an e5 for Derek's third shot or does he have to pull a Q star out for his third shot to keep congruent with using one off the tee?
Is my question clear as mud?
First of all that crap ain't gonna happen. And 2nd of all you'd owe him a freakin ball dude that's what would happen!!Here's a question, and maybe I'm over thinking it.

I think the change in ball could play a huge role for some teams, but have a minimal effect on others. Should be interesting to say the least.
Captains could have paired their players that were sponsored by the same company. While balls might have been a bit different in a few cases, it could have been largely the same for all pairings.

True. I know I am paired with Kelly. We are both Callaway and play a similar game so I do not think it will be an issue for us. Heck, we may just play the same ball the entire round.
If my biggest worry is the type of ball we're playing, things will be going VERY well. :banana:
What ball are you playing Wade?
Is it possible that we can just use 1 ball for the whole round? Instead of switching every hole? That might be more of an issue then the ball itself.
Mine was pretty darn close.Captains could have paired their players that were sponsored by the same company. While balls might have been a bit different in a few cases, it could have been largely the same for all pairings.
See below.Was thinking about this.. I dont recall a decision being posted about teamates for the AS that were repping different brands.
That would make the most sense to me, JT. I believe that is how they do it in the Ryder Cup and other Alt Shot events. Pre-round decide on one ball to play, that way it stays consistent.Is it possible that we can just use 1 ball for the whole round? Instead of switching every hole?

Yeah, but, your Alt Shot partner is pretty awesome.I'm surprised how much is being made about the ball stuff. Not saying you guys are wrong or anything, just surprised. I had a quick chat with my partner about ball selection and the decision was pretty easy..
That, and most companies have balls that offer good similarities between their competition. Just match it up and go for it.
