Playing today made me realize why I took a 4 year break from this game. It’s immensely frustrating to not be good or even decent at this shyt and have no real path to getting there. If you played as a kid you have such a leg up

Have you filmed your swing bro? It helps out a lot. Stick with it

Shot 80/75 this weekend. Same course both days, both from the "tips" which doesn't mean shyt on this course tbh.

Doubled the 18th to blow my best round of the year It is a 230-yard par 3, but the ditch I hit it in was only 100 yards in front of me lol

What balls are you all playing right now? [][]

I play (re)load and usually try to find a bucket of Bridgestone's if they're available.


I lose too many to try anything new

I’m a chromesoft guy. But I don’t really buy them much. I lose my shyts far too often too. Wall Mart got a dozen titleist for 9.99. Obviously not pro-v 1’s, but they’re soft enough. And damn sure cheap enough. So they’re my go-to’s.

I've played Vice and Snell from the direct-to-consumer brands and have been impressed with both. But I'm in love with the neon Vice.

And getting 5 dozen for $125 is impossible to beat for a top of the line 4-piece ball.

Haven't bought golf balls in years. I typically find enough Pro V1s or higher end golf balls still in good shape while I'm out there playing (typically in out of bounds areas). I also come across some high end balls at the golf course range I go to.

My game isn't consistent enough for me to invest in high end balls. Maybe if I shoot under 80 consistently and getting new high end balls will make a difference in shooting close to par.

Snell Golf Balls. Owner was original creator of Pro V1. $32 per dozen but very close to Pro V1 in terms of performance and I can always tell which ball is mine.

Slowest round I ever played was with some pro v1s, made sure I left with every one of those expensive mfers. #NoBallLeftBehind

Yeah I'm not a good enough golfer for those high end balls. Pro V-1, Pro V-1x, TP 5’s and other tour balls can actually hurt your game if you don’t swing right. They’re made for low handicappers. Tour balls spin more, and since I tend to hit a strong fade (slice), a tour ball will just make it slice more and lose distance. Better off with more forgiving equipment until I improve my game.

Any of you guys used mScorecard app? I installed that and used it the first time this weekend. It was really helpful to get distances to greens since i couldn't use my range finder because of a fog. It's also got a feature where you track each shot and record your distances. It was a wet morning so i didn't get any rolls on my drives, but i was getting 280+ with drives that I hit in play.

I use ProV1’s but I’ve never actually bought them myself. I always get a dozen every year from my sister in law for Christmas and I normally find someone when I play....you just gotta know the spots to look. I was playing in a tournament last month...hit my tee shot OB in the trees to the left...second tee shot in down the middle. I was in the woods for a few mins and found 5 ProVs all in good shape. If my group wasn’t calling for me I would have stayed in there for like 10 mins

I have a Garmin Approach A6 I got off Amazon for like $120 four summers ago. Totally Changed the way I play...I pay more attention to how far a have to the front and back of the green then I do to the middle. You can measure off distances on the A6 too and add them to your club averages.

I use SwingU. Never had the need for a range finder. Pretty rare I don't have a distance within 5 yards or so. Only when I have no clue where the pin is, depth wise. Plus, I like using the shot tracker to walk off the distance on my bombs off the tee

I'm cheap man, straight Top-Flite lol. Can't be losing 4$ golf balls with the way I drive it sometimes.

Do you guys use range finders? I'm about to grab one. No more guessing yardages.
