Did anyone here actually try these balls ? what did you think about it?

Anyone out there try the Slazenger Golf Balls that are available at Dick's Sporting Goods in the US. I was at a Dick's today in Michigan and picked up a dozen of the Slazenger RD Tour. They are a three peice ball. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with these balls?

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, wasnt sure since I'm not real looking to discuss the balls themselves. I found a guy on craigs list who is selling a dozen balls for $2 so I was thinking... balls never go bad and since I am not good enough to tell the dif between a prov1 or a xl3000 why...

So while I was in Arizona, I picked up a dozen Nike One Platinums and a dozen ProV1's. These were both the newest offerings from each company. I found the Nike One Platinum to be deeper off the tee than the ProV1, but the ProV1 definitely spun better on iron shots and wedge shots from the...

So today at the Players I noticed a few different things. I noticed a lot of putts were rolling cross-axis of the equator. Sergio in particular sunk a few where the ball was not rolling along the equator of the ball. I noticed early in the round, Mickelson was rolling his the same way, then for...

Hi; I have a chance to get some NXT golf balls with my name on them, or if I want, some clever line instead. Any suggestions for a quip that would be better than just my name? I can get 3 lines, 17 characters each line. So far I have come up with This ball was 4 holes old when I lost...

Hi All, On the weekend at Hammond I noticed my golf balls were continually scuffed or marked up and had notches, scratches, or part of the cover ripped quite often and figured this could impact the flight, and roll of the ball. They were brand new opened that day and were getting banged up...

Anyone play or tried the HX Hot ball? Was wondering what he thoughts were on this ball? Would like to know how it compares to the Nike Ignite ball.

Anyone play these balls, if so how are they?

Anyone tried these yet?

Got a couple of sleeves of these given to me so I've been playing them the last couple games. I have to say they are pretty decent. These have some spin on them and my irons distances come out right more or less. I typically hate mid range balls from titliest, and these have some of the same...

CRAPOLA!! I decided to try them out for fun and they were horrible! These obviously aren't seamless, and when I say obviously, I mean OBVIOUSLY. You can run your finger along the ball where the seem is and go across it. When you do, you can feel the seam is raised almost like they did not match...

Has anyone played a Pinnacle lately? On a recent trip, I found a Pinnacle Power-Core and an Exception while searching for my ball in the woods. As punishment, I decided to play them until I could hit a bloody fairway. I was shocked - they were actually pretty good - much better than the...

Has anyone tried this ball? If so, how does compare to Srixon AD333 or other soft/low compression balls such as Dunlop Super Loco, Noodle, etc. Thanks.

Has anyone here purchased balls from this company? I thinking buying some but would like some feedback...thanks. Scott

Anyone try these balls last year and have any comments?

What is the difference in the new pro v1 and pro v1x versus the old ones? Also the difference in the new nxt tour versus the old one? How much is a marketing ploy just to charge more for a ball versus actual improvements?

Bought a dozen the other day to try them out. Although I only got to use them for four holes before being rained out, I found them to be a pretty decent ball. Distance and trajectory off the tee was good, spin and feel around the green was good. Feel while putting was also good. My only problem...

My mother-in-law just got these 'new' balls at Costco (in Montreal) for fairly cheap, and she gave me a dozen. They are advertized on the box as distance 2-layer balls. Have anyone played them? Do they compare to the 'old' CB1? Thanks François

having gone through a few boxes of d2s, and my local shop being out of the feels I picked up the maxflis on sale, 19 bucks for 12, somehting like that. The D2s are a cool cheap ball but I was starting to want to hit something with a more meaty feel anyhow. I'm pleasantly surprised. After they...

As a long-time Pro V1 user, I would not have thought it likely that I would be inclined to change to another brand of ball. I was wrong. This morning a friend of mine lent me one of the new Wilson Staff 50/50 balls. Wow. What a discovery. The ball has a soft feel, and rockets off both woods...

If you want to try a good, cheap, durable, good looking ball, try the Wilson staff 50 ball....Very soft to touch, feels good off the club, putts well and is cheap!!!!!! My two cents worth anyway.... have a good day..:-)

the tp red is my annual box of "good" balls this year and I grabbed some of those Wilsons. For any interested the repackaged tf ds balatas are at GT for 12.95. Haven't played them yet but they "spin" model promises to spin so... probably not as long as the D2.

Head's up for you Taylormade fans. Just got my Leaderboard email and the TPs are on sale for $35. In store and online.

So who other than me has tried a 15-pack of these? I think they're freakin' outstanding! They have the feel of a premium ball, and check up quite well for a 2-piece. They'll never beat a urethane covered ball for spin, but when I can buy 45 balls for the price of 12... well...

Saw the new bags at GT. NICE!!!! 14 dividers. Anyone have one?

I was just wondering if I can have some feedback on good rain gear. What do people use and how satisfied they are? Make and model please? Also, has anyone bought rain gear from ebay? Thanks

My brother in law says he likes Rhino balls... I can only assume that these are what he is talking about.. http://www.dealsdirect.com.au/p/golf-balls-rhino-rifle-titanium-pack-15/ However, I would hate to order them from Australia... Are these the balls John uses, and if so... does anyone...

Very funny stuff. :-) http://www.pinnaclegolf.com/news/tvspots.asp

Which one is best suited for high handicappers with low to moderate swing speed (95-110mph) with decent straight drive ? Trying to gain a bit of distance with the ball :)

Well I hate iron covers too but take a look.. I played 75+ rounds this year with these irons and they still look great!

Looking to pick up about 75 decent balls for a new shag bag? Any thoughts on where to look for volume purchases? Or any suggestions on ok balls to use? I typically play nxt tours but don't think buying a 5-6 dozen at that price is smart for chipping / putting practice. Second hand options also...

so I bought the M3. I should have it in a few days. From the pictures below you can see that the little flip on the back has to be open to enable the GPS. How and I supposed to walk around with this thing for 4-5 hours and keep that flip open? If I get a case for it and clip it to the bag I...

Hey does anyone know much about these indoor outdoor putting greens? I'm thinking about picking the following one up from Home Depot for winter practice. ...

Just about have made up my mind to purchase the Bushnell 1500 Pinseeker Tourny, haven't seen one of these things in action and was curious what peoples thoughts are on them. How many shots do you think it might help per round/ handicap wise? Are they really as helpfull as everyones hype says they...

Has anyone tried this ball? 3 piece with urethan cover. Aren't these high end ball characteristic? SportChek got them for $12 a box...

Hello all, I'll be purchasing Intelligolf as soon as I get my new M5 (garmin... now the BMW). I have never used intelligolf so don't know much about it. I've read the FAQ on the website and its look interesting. 1. Birdie or Eagle. THey are all pretty cheap so I was thinking of going with...

If a buddy of mine usually plays ProV's then which TP ball(red or black) is similar to it? I'm thinking its the red but not sure.

Well Merry Christmas to me. I bought myself a SkyCaddie SG5 as a gift and used it for the first time today. The course I play has been plotted to include IntelliGreen which allows you to see any point on the green. Allows you to see how far you hit the Ball (watch out all you long ball hitters,...

I am looking at buying this unit since the price went down so much (GT $248). Anyone owns one or have used one, any info would be appreciated as I went to their web site and found next to nothing on the SG2 and when I looked at the courses they have mapped, the ones that I play here in St-Jean are...

The green ones everyone puts out on the curb on garbage day... How many golf balls would fit in one of those? I have so many golf balls sitting around my place in boxes, bags, egg cartons. I was thinking of just dumping them all into a big garbage can and leaving them in the basement. Grabbing...

I'm wondering if they are legit? I've heard stories about people being ripped off with golf purchases on the web. I'm looking for a Ping G2i Craz-e head cover for my putter. Its the all blue stiff cover. I see that they have them for sale but I don't want to waist my money. Any insight would be...

Can anyone tell me if the intelligolf software will work on a Garmin nuvi 660? or do I need a PDA device ? Thanks Dale

I did a search of the forum on the subject and found the forum split on whether to use them or not. I received a set of Iron covers this past christmas and am sitting on the fence whether to use them or not. Visually I don't mind them as they fit well, have a zipper for making on and offs easy....

Has any one used these, they are discontinued but I would like to try them. I am trying to get a bit more spin but not sacrifice distance. It is alwer compression which is what I need but your input would be greatly appreciated.:)

Has anyone locally used this unit, I notice that there are quite a few courses in our area that can be downloaded. Any negatives or thoughts. Thanks

The swing glove stops you from cupping your top wrist. The refiner keeps your swing on on plain. I can swing a normal club with the swing glove no problem. I can swing the refiner without unhindging it on the most sensitive setting almost at full speed. BUT when i wear the swing glove with the...

I am in the market for some shoes.... any recommendations on where and what to buy? thx
