  I had a Callaway Tour i(z) Slow Meter Ball (L34+) taken out of play after just a few rounds when it says it has unlimited durability.

  Why??

   

  Thanks Tom

  All the paid for balls have a limited life. It's one of the ways the game is paid for.

  This is what it says about the balls you have.Copied directly from the Callaway Tour i(z) purchase page in the pro shop.

   The Callaway Tour i(z) provides a significantly slower WGT swing meter, making it easier to hit more perfect shots. In addition, these upgraded Callaway Tour balls provide more distance and durability.

  Notice is says more durability not unlimited durability. No where does it say unlimited durability. As Courteney said all balls that you buy in the pro shop have a set durability rating. I don't know what you read but it was not about this ball.

  last time i buy them

  They weren't really intended for you to buy and use, I would guess. Level 7 availability says WGT is catering to the players that used to have to wait until Level 33 to get a premium ball.

  I was reading it wrong, thanks. So when you're just playing a few rounds by yourself you should probably just use the starter balls but the flip side of that is that it's more difficult and your score reflects that.
