Dazed & Cornfused
I'm sure this has been brought up before so please move it to another thread if needed. But I was reading the article in golf digest about their hot picks for balls. I realize I should not seriously take anything the magazines say about equipment but one thing got me thinking. Someone was saying how even high-handicappers get benefit from using tour balls (pro v's, etc) instead of the usual distance rocks most of us hackers are "supposed" to play.
I have been told numerous times that I "don't have the game" to use a pro v. I have tried several of the new distance balls lately and havn't found any of them to help my score in any way. If anything I believe they hurt my score. I'm not a long hitter at all but my short game is fairly good. I havn't found the distance balls to give me any noticeable difference but I do notice their shortcomings around the green.
Last couple of rounds I have played a few holes with some used NXT Tour, Pro V1 and B330RX that I have and I noticed a definite overall improvement on those holes.
Thoughts, opinions, advice?
