  About how many hits do you get from a ball that has a ball life of 2.0?

  I usually say if its 2.0, its 200 hits to keep it easy. 2.5= 250.

  I'm not getting into math calculations figuring out ball life. lol

  Ok, thanks, but would suck to pay the same price or more for less ball life.

  While some of the information in the following thread is a bit out of date, the chart should give you a decent idea of number of hits to expect. I would guess that for a ball of 2.0 durability, you should get between 100 and 125 shots, excluding putts from on the green.

  I have been told that ANY ball life is between 100-120 Hits, Tee to Green, Putts do Not count.... Hope this info is valid and it helps..

  These are wet dreams only ;)

  The other numbers, 90 to 125, should be more precise. We should note, though, that the strokes haven't been counted (in public view) from 2012 - with most modern balls, it's in a misty cloud...
