    Right, you can see on my stats that I played hard from the last 2 years accordingly it is obvious that I have tested almost all the balls available in WGT. But now, after almost one year of important use of Nike L71 and L84, by choice I decided to try the TaylorMade Lethal, but so just to try. The first attempt was made all'Oakmont Sweeps, not a good result, but in my usual average that includes little attention and little desire to stand to do the calculations, the second attempt however was excellent and almost played on Kiawah B9 RG.

    Honestly, I never expected to find a set of 8 birdies with a ball that is worth half of those who habitually purchase. Taking into account that reconciled with Callaways are different only a few dots and Nikes, both price and quality, I wonder ( think about it, I got there after almost 2 years) if indeed the latter can be considered top of the line .

    Surely they are, probably in windy conditions such that "miss the ding" is necessary, but on medium/fast field and "controlled" wind speed I have to think again, or better, for now I have to think again. I will continue to use this Lethal received a couple of weeks ago in tribute and only then I'll pull the sums on how much invested in the purchase and eventual percentage of revenue from the various tournaments.

    In the meantime, I ask You like your opinion.

    I know there are many threads like this, but what leaves me thoughtful is always find different currents of thought, and share is definitely a way to correctly choose how to invest own money.

    Cheers,
    David.

    The Nike balls I have no interest in using so I don't really know what the big deal is about them. I was using the Legend only Callys for 250 cred a sleeve and found them to my liking. We received one free Lethal from something that totally changed my mind. I'm 100% sold on the Lethals now. I find the distance to be most accurate off the irons and wedges. I can give up a little driver distance for the scoring clubs to be much closer. At 250 cred per sleeve, IMO they're the best ball WGT offers.

    I recently wrote my praise of the Lethal. I had been using all of the highest priced balls assuming superior results. I settled on the Lethal then went naturally to a cally chrome that offered a couple of more dots for the same 2.50 price. It is also a very fine ball. But again, for my overall needs the Lethal seems to deliver the better service.
