  Callaway HEX Chrome Balls (L33+) 250c

  Best value in the pro shop, and capable of very good play even from the tips.

  Main thing is to remember that good irons demand specific play, and so swapping ball types will put huge pressure on putting.  Learn 1 club ball combination for optimum play.

  Depends what you want of course.  Just banging round low end, low precision clubs a beer ball is more than enough.

  I know I like the Nike and that's whether I really need them or not:)  Nikes though get fussy in that in that tiny adjustments can make big differences, and off Master tees the L33 is cream + anyway.

  Srixons are ok too. Well worth a try.

  I found the meter speed of the Top Level R11 Irons way too fast for me. So I was using the Max balls and they were pretty good  Very good set of Irons, but meter speed way too quick for my old brain to handle.

  I have the Nike Irons now and using the Nike L90 golf balls.  Just keeping a close watch in multi player games...  there is not much difference in distance to other balls, but every so often there is a 5-10yrd longer than others.  In saying that, there is  5-10yrd less in distance sometimes too.

  The only bad thing with both those type of balls...  is the cost.

  This may seem ridiculous to some......but I have been using the WGT "baseballs" and find they perform well for the price ( $1.50 / sleeve). The meter is decent and distance is usually 280--300. They are worth a try if $6.50 / sleeve for high end balls is getting annoying. It hurts a lot less when ya dunk one in the pond too.   ;)

  NIKE 20XI-X RZN (L81+) 550 c, 4 spin, 5 distance, 3.5 meter.  

  Good performance to cost ratio.

  I've been using the NIKE 20XI-X RZN (L42+) Red Vapor 700 c, 3.5 spin, 5 distance, 3.5 meter balls WGT gifted everyone - and like them, except for the cost. I won't be buying any of them.

  break out the,,,,,,,, RED vapor NIKE'S ...

  ^^^^^   extra sauce balls ^^^^^ ....  bad azzball.. meter...makes me a DING machine...or tad b4 or after,,,,,, which ever i want.... deadly... ..they can be lil tricky... if ya go messing around with full botttom (backspin ) ..   ,, 

  they last a long time .. just play'n em on weekends....and really ,,,just cost me,, a few more survey's a month,,,, well worth it tho ....funn ball....   

  for BLITS...usually any promo ball,,,.that i have two of... .. and  has 1 dot feel ... at least.. . meters fast ..but its a challange  to ding....  after i play em a few holes...  usually can  get neer the  ding...for aheartbeat or two...

  these also come in handy.... the two or three time a year i play ...after drink"n...and  i don't wanna loooz any nike's or call'y balls ....

  Nike 20XI-X RZN (L61+) 500 credits good distance spin and durability. The meter is a good speed. Got my wedges and Nike irons charted fairly well with this ball. My average has dropped from 62.8 to 61.55 that it is now since switching to it from the slow meter Calloway ball.
