Ok guys I am looking for players to participate in a small intial
Test Pilot project here in the forum to get as much feedback as
possible on my existing designs to help shape my next series
of design updates. :D

I am currently trialling product around the world and the
process can be a bit of fun plus there will be some interesting
proptotype testing later in the year where you will see some
of the results being dialled into these newer designs.

So the criteria is players that are happy to talk about how
the balls play for them no matter the results any feedback
is good feedback.

The current lineup does not include a urethane Tour type ball
so if this is an issue please let me know up front.

Please send me a PM after posting here and I will get more
info to those players looking to support this project.

Cheers, Boz.

I'd like to try them and write a review. Especially concerning performance on and around the green (< 20 yards).

Thanks for the notes so far and I will get PM's to everyone shortly.

I am looking to keep the group open till Sunday and then I will look
to pass on all the info for the post out.

Now remember guys I haven't got a Tour ball at the moment and I see
a lot of single figure players so please understand I am happy to
have you on board but you know what I will be showing you might be
more interesting from a fresh style view point than out and out performance,

But just so you are up todate with my R&D projects, I have a small batch
of prototype TV -One balls coming to me this week to analyse how the
new cover material works inconjunction with our mid compression 4 piece
structure. :D

Talk more soon,
Boz.

Boz, you already know I'm in. :D

Unlike some boards (which I won't mention by name), not everyone here shoots in the 70's and bombs 300 yard drives. On MGS, I think you'll find we have a fair number of mid to high handicap players who are fairly pragmatic about their games.

Thanks B, as I know my limits and have been making sure since I started this
business not to go beyond my limits in terms of performance levels.As player
expectations can be easily deflated and that is not going to help me in the
longer term. So like all things in life I like to tell it as it is.

Part of my approach is to get better players to understand my designs so that
when higher handicapped friends / family etc,, ask about balls that will help
them I hope my designs will be in the mix as I don't know of any other brand
that wants to talk about Game Improvement ball designs that are a reality.

So I am happy to share with players that are open minded to a bit change in
style for practical reasons.

Cheers, Boz.

PS you gear is coming direct from me and will be there by Friday (I hope)

Boz, not all of us in the 70s play tour balls. Since we dont all play bomb and gouge courses, and can often play pitch and run shots at the greens, I often foresake the ProV-1 genre for an NXT Tour (or equivalent) for accuracy on the long shots. Also, since many of us play the muny/public course circuit, I am sure I am not alone this summer in noting that spin is not necessarily useful at times. My Friday league plays on a course constructed over shale and clay. The greens hold very well at 10 or 11 am. Come 5-6 pm, I have hit three-quarter wedges that do NOT make a ballmark.

Hi P, great that is why I am showing my hand in the States now as I
have a good feeling about how things will be received as spin is but
one part of the equation.

The thing you may see with the current balls is that they have a drop
and controlled release performance that might be an interesting change
in format.

Cheers, Boz.

I'd also like to give these balls a workout. And, trust me, I'm definitely no tour player and the only thing scratch about me is my...... wait.. nevermind! :) :)

wdgolf  Managed a game of winter golf today. After practicing with the orange whip, my swing went from fade bias to draw bias. Scores were probably half par, half triple. So many fat shots on soggy ground, it wasn't pretty
