I was on a golf weekend a few years back, on the first day my four ball were on the 12th tee and we decided to let the pair behind us play through, whilst hanging around on the tee waiting for them to clear the fairway, I was playing keepy uppy with an old ball on the head of my driver. We were stood on top of a very steep hill which dropped away to the left of the tee and wasn't part of the golf course, I flicked the ball up, took a running swing and absolutely nailed the ball about 300 yards off the top off the hill. Whilst feeling very smug and holding the baseball style pose watching the ball disappear into the ether, I heard a thunk as the top half of my driver landed at my feet, leaving me standing there holding just the handle. That resulted in a severe drinking fine later in the day.

Had my first round with the new irons on Wednesday. Found them to be really nice to hit and easier too control than my old ones. Still adjusting to the distances on them and struggled with the wedges alot. But overall I'm very happy with them. My driving was woeful though - kept pushing it down the righthand side and ended up losing 3 balls during the round.<br />
<br />
Still managed to shoot an 85 but it was the par 3s that saved me as ended up 1 under for those. -
I hate Srixon gear for some reason and will never play with a Srixon ball. Stuffs me mentally just seeing it on the tee. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Played a corporate day last week (i love this time of year). 4 part timers in my grioup and we managed to hit 6-under. Even with max handicaps, we came nowhere, too many serious fullas at this one.<br />
<br />
Did have my best ever golf moment though. On the 10th they had a "pay the pro" hole, where for a $5 donation you could get the club pro to take your tee-shot. We all paid the money, so we could pick the best one, but i decided to hit my own as i shanked the previous hole. The pro hit first, and split the fairway, 100m from the green, great shot. I hit 2nd, and fucking smoked it, possibly the best drive i have ever hit, 60m from the green, dead centre of the fairway. The pro got the shits and refused to hit the other 2 shots we paid for! i didn't care, i was stoked as fuck.<br />

I have been using Adams balls for about a year, and i love them. i always thought different balls affecting your play was marketing bullshit, but i seem to hit these balls better than any others. -
$60 a dozen??!! fuck me! even though i don't lose anywhere near as many as i used to, that is still an outrageous amount of money! i wait until Golf World have one of their many, many sales, and get those Adams for about $24 (normally down from $40).

I generally pay $85 for a Doz Pro v and then I still feel like I'm getting a bargain.<br />
[/quote]I have about 100 prov 1's left from my last company just kicking around at home. Used to pick them up 50+ at a time for free, I miss that job. -

I'll flick you my address to send them to. -
I use Prov v's mostly, have tried the Penta, a bit so so, if I am hitting the ball well, they go great, but found if I wasnt timing it, they werent that great (I know) Think I got a doz Pro V's for $60 on special at Rebel (about 6 months ago)<br />
<br />
Bridgestone also make some great golf balls, but I find I have the same problem was I do with the Taylors, not usually a fan of the Srixon balls, although I havent used the new ones.<br />
<br />
Corporate days are good as you can use a rock off the tee for distance and change to a soft ball into the greens <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> -
I was a staunch Pro V1 user until last year. I had a crack for a while with some Bridgestones and Z stars. Hated them both.<br />
<br />
I have gone back to the new pro v1x and love them. I cant see myself playing another ball. Get them on the cheap at Rebel sports when they have a 25% off sale. -
Have just got a new RBZ stage 2 'tour' driver (previous driver was a Cleveland Launcher). So far have had 3 rounds with it and I have definitely seen an increase in distance. At the weekend I even cleared a fairway bunker with a miss hit fade - I have never cleared this particular bunker. It was cold too so it is fair to say I cant wait for summer!<br />
<br />
Has anyone tried the R1?
