I'll bite... I'm starting to get low on my current gamer anyway and they're no longer made...

Driver SS: 112-113 avg consistently the last several times I've checked it.
Handicap: 11.2 last update
Current Ball: TaylorMade Lethal (ProV1x is my back-up)

And I am still playing now. Weather is a little cold, but we play year round.  

In The Bag

Strong 3 wood: Taylormade M1 15* w/ ProjectX T1100 HZRDUS handcrafted 75x

Have a ton of back-ups in all categories, but there are always 14 clubs in the bag that differ depending on the course and set-up. Bomb and gouge. Yes, I'm a club gigolo.

Handicap: UP 14.4

Driver SS: measured at 107avg, real world probably closer to 100.

Current Ball: Taylormade Project A

 

Additional comment. When selecting a ball, I generally don't care much about driver playability, as I generally only swing a driver 3-4 times a round. What I care about is iron playability, so if this is all about the old 'longest off the tee' schtick, I am probably not a great candidate.

Handicap 7.9

SS 106 avg.

Current ball is NXT for wet winter conditions and prov1x for summer.

I've tried the Srixon balls but just didn't feel quite right. Would love to try again and hopefully get the right feel. Play year round. Looking to play the next 3 or 4 days in a row.

Play a ProV1x on a normal basis for it's consistency.  Handicap is 5 and club head speed is 104.  I was a Titelist ball tester this summer and it was very insightful and fun at the same time.  Play golf year round .

Go for it guys!

 

Not sure what this ball is, but would love to hear how it compares to the Z-Star.  Hope someone makes that comparison.

Just had a mystery box show up today from Srixon with the new Z-star balls therein.

Last time I got some new balls from them I went out and shot a new personal best with the XV.

Crossing fingers for another spectacular round with these once the snow melts! (Sigh.)
