  1. I'm finalizing takes on Strok, Cut and Wilson balls atm. Immediately impressed by the Wilson Duo U, hit some shots I didn't think I'd be able to pull off.
  2. May the 4th be with you

  3. Sun finally came out here. Sent from my LG-H812 using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  4. Augusta St Andrews Pine Valley Cabot links & Cliffs New South Wales DLF Golf & Country club Shinnecock Lofiten Golf Links Kuari Cliffs Cape kidnappers
  5. Nice review Al. Would you categorize it as a gamer or casual ball?
  6. THIS. IS. EXCELLENT. I decree, on this day the 27th of April - THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE Nice fricken job Ty.
  7. What is a man card, is this a common type of thing I'm your area? Does it have something to do with locker room privileges etc? Haven't come across it at the courses I've been a member of.
  8. That ball is like a 5 year old version of the FG Tour, I haven't tried any of the new stuff. Sent from my LG-H812 using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  9. Got it to the course today, much ball feedback cometh. Sent from my LG-H812 using MyGolfSpy mobile app

  12. Thanks Although it's still a little cool and soft greens, I really impressed that the Q Star Tour is playing like a tourish ball. Think Bridgestone B330RXS. And would love to see your review once you've played em.
  13. Sounds good, look forward to your review. Please refer to the template and instructions in post #1 of this thread for guidance when you do.
  14. Few balls I'm playing around with atm: Srixon ZStar & XV Cut Golf Cally Chrome Soft X Cally Supersoft Oncore Avant Strok Snell MTb and Git Sum
  15. It's cool and great job. We could have explained better in the first place
  16. I guess we're hoping people will write a more flushed out and detailed version of their gamer using the template and contributing to the thread, but please feel free to add this if you like.
  17. We've added some explanations to the first post better explaining the template naming conventions etc. Here's a recap: Distance It's hard to tell if a ball is going exactly 2 yards or 6 or 10 yards less or further, but most will be able to say "same, better or less" Trajectory - high, mid, low Should be self explanatory Spin Suck back - high spin Hop & stop - great spin Release some -trends to run out a bit Roll out - there's no coming back Feel - firm, crunchy, soft, mushy Should be self explanatory Durability (1 round) - like new, scuffed but payable, rough shape Should be self explanatory Rating Gamer - could replace or become part of current rotation Casual - would play again if given or found Avoid - do not like Notes or writeup: Use this section to tell us everything you thought about the ball, compare it to other balls and all other observations
  18. Review your current gamer seperately, link to it with each new review and then do a comparison in your additional write ups?
  19. Oh why yes Glad you like! I think we could build the ultimate ball guide for our members, by our members. The key will be sticking to the template and using the same naming conventions.
  20. Let's get the "ball" rolling The player Current gamer - Snell MTB Handicap or Ave score - 7 7 iron distance with current ball - 165y Trajectory - Mid Putter - Cleveland Tfi #1 copper face (medium feel) The ball Srixon Q Star Tour - 2017 Distance - Same Trajectory - Mid Spin - Hop & Stop Feel - Soft Durability (1 round) - Like new Rating - Gamer Notes: - Except for a tree it would look brand new after 18 - Driver spin appears quite low - Good workability - Spin Skin seems to have an affect as pitches grab on first/second hops - Wasn't sucking back full swings 3 feet, but stops right away - Able to control trajectory very well - Nice and soft, but never feels mushy - very pleasant feel - Excellent alignment aid on side
  21. MYGOLFSPY MASTER GOLF BALL REVIEW THREAD Purpose: To become the Internet's number one source of truth on golf balls and help the MyGolfSpy community members to find the right ball.
