  1. Exclamation golf balls

    Hey guys! The best ball is the one that suits to your game!!! I've tried much of those actually available on the market. I still play with the old Strata Professionnal 90. Distance isn't everything if you are not able to control it and you fly over the pin at each shots. You will...

  2. Ball, balls, and more balls!

    Is it just me or can anybody make any sense of all the new ball releases. The worst offender (if that's the right term) has got to be Nike. The March issue of Golf Magazine announces the release of two more models, Double C Tour and Double C Distance. This following on last month's...
