    If it landed on the fairway then it wouldn't say ball lost..

    More likely your ball had run out of life...you only get so many hits per ball

    Yep, and to take it a step further, the little meter to the right of the ball that says "hits" shows you the approximate ball life left - red indicating it is nearly used up.

    For the record, I would use cheaper balls at your level and with your clubs. For a start you will tend to lose more balls as a new player and secondly you will not get the full benefits the ball offer with your clubs. Personally I would use one of the cheaper WGT balls that offer a bit more spin and distance.
