  It would be very useful IMO if we could change balls during a solo practice round.  (The one ball rule applies to competitions.)  Hit a shot, take a mulligan, change ball, hit the same shot again.   We could learn the effect of different ball spin or distance parameters that way.

  As usual, Andy is, oh so sharply correct. This common sense approach is why I went ahead and got the cashmere in 5 colors. I passed on the yellow.

  Yeah for sure.  In practice mode be nice to take everything, and really load that good for nothing else caddie up:).  How much time that would all that I have no clue, but would be nice.

  thanks everyone who looked that up and responded.  So a rule is a rule even tho it's kind of a funny one.  So even a different color means a different ball so be it....Play On !!!

  There should always be a default system that takes you to the next nearest ball in your inventory.

   

  Having said that, it's probably a messy technical programming change,

   

  Whatever, the pink Volvik balls in Pink I was gifted today are every bit as good as the Nike L47's as I shot a 28 first time out with them.
