Advantages: Good feel, Shiny, bounces well, good value for money Disadvantages: Being a golf ball - none really...
-worlde kitchen scales are anything to go by.
It is blessed with the same colour as those yellowish striped visibility jackets worn by police, builders and increasingly by young children walking to school with their mummies, at least where I live. (Essex)
Hang on, it's that special high-visibility yellow? This must be revolutionary. A golfball looking like a tennis ball?
There must be a rule about this. They're probably making one now.
On it it says: "Pinnacle 3" (turn around) "Gold~Distance" (Whatever that means) and (turn around) Pinnacle 3 again.
(Eyes stop spinning)
I don't actually see how this ball can go any further than the rest, considering they all have to weigh within 3 grams of the standard weight. Maybe the little round Hexagons on the surface of it (Roundagons?) are smoother, thus more aerodynamic.
However, the funnest ...
Advantages: Soft, feel, distance Disadvantages: A bit pricey
Having taken up golf in the last year i've lost (and found) alot of golfballs on the local fairways as you might expect, most of these balls are then hit and lost again for someone else to find and so the cycle continues.
That was at least until i slowly showed signs of improvement and treated myself to a sleeve (pack of 3) of Titleist NXT tour golfballs from my local pro shop for £4.99, i must admit i wasnt keen to part with almost a fiver for 3 golfballs but you know the way it is... better equipment will make me a better player right? well funnily enough it may have helped a little.
So what is so special about the NXT tour series of ball?
Well, firstly its round (which helps) so nothing special there then, its when you first tee one up and hit it - that's when you know you've just hit a great ball, when you manage to tee ...
Advantages: Extra distance with the driver. Excellent control and spin. Well priced high performance golf ball for the average golfer. Disadvantages: Meaningless advertising.
have we never heard of them before? For decades they were content to simply rake in the massive profits from the sale of Dunlop golfballs, and it's only in the last seven years or so that they have began to market golfballs and clubs using their own brand name of Srixon.
They were actually the first golfball manufacturer to pioneer the use of soft balata rubber in the manufacture of golfballs when they brought out the Dunlop Maxfli Balata HT ball, which until Titleist caught up a couple of years later was without question the ball of choice of all better golfers. I used the Maxfli Balata ball successfully for many years.
~ ~ There were two major problems with balata golfballs. Firstly, they didn't go as far as a conventional two-piece construction ball, and secondly they were so soft that you were lucky to get one full round of golf ...
