I'd try them I think. I'm sure at first it could take some getting used to, but it seems like a neat concept.
Agreed. The Qstar is a solid ball. I am not sure I will play it but I might get some to hit some putts with.

I mean, golf is fun!
On the Putt Putt course?
. I’m not playing w/ you anymore if you break these out on the 1st tee. Just because I won’t be able to concentrate.
These look phenomenal- can't wait to grab a few of these to try em out.

I'm not sure I good game these. First thought would be that they would be too distracting for me...but I am open to giving them a try to see if they change my initial perspective.
If they ever make a red and white one, it'll be in my bag for sure.
The 2019 Maxfli Tour is available in matte green and matte white, and the Tour X version is available in matte white.
Honestly, while they look cool as a souvenir, I'm not a big fan of the split color ball. Found a few on the course and tried them, but i cold not get used to the color separation when lining the ball up to hit. especially in the fairways when you couldn't adjust the ball.

I used to love the two color balls as a kid! I used to think it was the coolest thing ever even though I didn’t play. Awesome to see them coming back in a really solid ball! If I wasn’t set on my ball this year, I’d for sure try out a sleeve

You know I need every advantage I can get to take down Big Time!

I understand that. I was just stating my opinion on how I see it.

By calling out THP for being factual? That’s just confusing to me because if it’s the case then it’s a lose lose no matter what is written, which is interesting.

So I just spent the last 15 minutes rolling putts with them and I have to say I really dig watching the ball spin and realizing maybe I need some work with the stroke. I enjoyed that with Triple Track as well and think this could really help me with some putting practice.

Ill get some good ones later when GG can record, but here is a quick 3 second sample.

Put me in the camp that loves this idea! I am a fan of the QST and the built in putting alignment of a 50/50 ball will add another element to an already great performer. I can't wait to try these on the course!
As much as I enjoy using the Truvis balls, part of me says this Srixon offering is just a bit too much for me to play these on the course, but I could definitely see the appeal for putting practice
The on-course issue to me, based on initial impression of the ball, is that the solid distinction between both colours could mess with my head when the seam is pointing in a completely different direction to where I intend to hit it
Before anyone says anything about alignment markings on a ball, I don't see those as an issue as they are always on a solid colour background and never circle the entire ball that I use
Maybe my opinion could be changed if I gave them a try, but I won't be rushing out to buy any when they hit the UK stores

The original Ping balls similar to this always split on the seams. I don’t see myself playing these. I love the yellow Truvis, but after a couple years I’m going to try something different for a few rounds.
