K7JBQ:
Thanks for the friends invite.
I've played the level 90 Nikes, and done well with them, but they're just a little too "high strung" for my game on an every day basis. What I mean is, they react very strongly to slight differences in spin, and I have trouble getting consistent, predictable yardage with them. With the Volviks, what I lose in yardage I gain in consistency on the approach shots. And it's the approach shot that sets up scoring opportunities.
That said, if I'm playing a tournament on a long course like Chambers Bay or Erin Hills, I sometimes equip the Nikes. On a course where accuracy is more important than distance, such as Pebble Beach or the Olympic Club, I'll go with the Volviks every time.
But it's great that we have a variety of balls available. Makes the game more fun.
Thanks for accepting the invite. I thought maybe we can play a round. I play on mobile though.
You're absolutely right, having variety of balls makes it more fun to play. It could also be a problem, because they react differently, requires testing for every brand of ball. So far, I'm quite content with the Callaways L34, till I tier up, and try the Nike L90. I like the 4.0 meter on those Nike balls, just strictly use them for tournaments.
