Ever since I started playing, I always considered myself not good enough to play with brand new balls. That, and the obvious price point. I play with second-hand or even older balls, which end up like 30 to 40 cents per ball. I like pro-V's, so if I play with new ones, that would set me back around 4 dollars per ball, a x10 price difference per ball. I usually consume around 3 to 4 balls per round, so that would end up 16 dollars a round if I lost 4 balls.
I've been given some new balls in the past, but I've not been able to find noticeable differences in performance, perhaps because the new balls did not last very long.
Someone gifted me with a sleeve of new pro-v's on my birthday, but I'm still too cheap to use them.
So my question is, are there considerable advantages with using new balls? Is it quantifiable? Is it worth it?
