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. 
 
Still managed to shoot an 85 but it was the par 3s that saved me as ended up 1 under for those.

JK

So mark brown makes the cut in the open with rounds of 77 and 73. Ended up bang on cut line of 8 over

JK

A very inconsistent round today out at waiuku. Ended up shooting an 85 ( yep again) which included 3 doubles and a triple. Had 3 hole in a row where I lost balls grrrrrrr

JK

Also, played with the new srixon zstar balls today and they are very nice. Good distance off the tee but nice and soft so great around the greens too. I like

Hooroo

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. 
 
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. 
 
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.

JK

Yeah golf balls sure make a difference. I use to be bit of a snob and only played with Titlist Pro V1s or previously the taylormade system c balls but i like these new srixons alot. $79 a doz though......

Hooroo

I like the New TaylorMade replacement for the Penta. Good ball for $60/Doz. 
 
Rebel Sports now do good deals on ProV1's Just got to keep an eye out for them.

$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).

Hooroo

I generally pay $85 for a Doz Pro v and then I still feel like I'm getting a bargain.

mariner4life

I think it's pretty clear i am out of my depth in this thread

Hooroo

Nah mate, I'm all gear, look queer.

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) 
 
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. 
 
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=':)' />

Got some balls from a mate called 'The Big Yard'. He got them off trademe of $9 a doz delivered! Man they are ROCKS!

Chubbs Peterson

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. 
 
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! 
 
Has anyone tried the R1?

JK

Hows this for a variance between 9s.

Couldn't control the driver if my life depended on it so played irons only for the last 8 holes.
