STUDque Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 I got mine yesterday. It's definitely the fanciest box I've ever seen for golf balls. However, the actual ball markings don't seem consistent with the box. They remind me of Top Flight. The looks are all I can comment on now as we've got snow on the ground at the moment. Will try to add my thoughts once I get to take full settings. Another box on the stack. I'll never use all of these. Luckily, I got much better about keeping balls in play this year.

Cajunone1983 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 You will really like those elixr balls. I got a trial sleeve and had a friend get a trial sleeve for me and they flat out perform. I shot some of the best rounds of my life with them.

Cajunone1983 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 They have what they call heavy particles in the outer mantle which helps with a riffling effect like the metal core ball. They do go really straight and stop extremely well on the greens. I have to do some more head to head testing against the tp5 which I found to perform really well. Sucks bc I just got 6dz 2015 b330-rxs balls.

If I shoot the best round of my life with these, I'll be in the coveted 70's. I play a lot of different balls and will try to stick with whatever gets me below 80. Never been down there but the ProV1 has gotten me close twice.

BIG STU Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 What would be the deal breaker for me is how they sound and jump off the putter and on close chip and runs like with an 8 iron.

The noise off the driver I can handle The Caliber is the hollow core version, and that's the one that has the wonky sound. The ELIXR has a solid synthetic rubber core - don't think there will be any sound issues there.

BIG STU Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 As fate would have it I stopped by a golf shop after church that I do a lot of business with. I traded him out of an older Adams 22* hybrid with a Pro Launch shaft. Now he has lots of used balls different grades etc. I just happened to look in the $4.95 per dozen bin. Saw 2 On Core Elixr balls on the top. Dug through the stuff and found several Snell MTB and Get Sum balls got those too. Finished out the dozen with some MG Tour C-4 balls and one MG Senior which is non conforming. I asked him WTH? those balls were in great shape. He told me if he put them on the 9.95 a dozen bin people will not buy them because they are not one of the big 3 brands. So I got some balls to hack around with and try cheap Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- 5W TM V-Steel Fubuki 60r--- 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R----- 9 W TM V Steel TM MAS stiff---- Irons 2015 TM TP CB Steel Fiber 95 R--- GW Callaway Mack Daddy 2 52* shaft unknown junk pile refugee.

STUDque Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 Had this pop up in my inbox this morning. Perhaps this promo puts the price point purposefully more palatable and purchasable. 1@ $35/dozen 3@ $32/dozen 6@ $28/dozen Sent from carrier pigeon using MyGolfSpy In my Pisa, riding on a 3.5+ G410+ EXS 5W King F7 Hy i500 5-GW Equalizer 56/60 Heppler Ketsch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUDque Posted June 9, 2018 Author Share Posted June 9, 2018 Gotta give it to Oncore. They're really investing in their marketing to get balls in players' hands. Here's a big one they're offering through Twitter: https://twitter.com/oncoregolf/status/1005124756872617984?s=21 To claim the balls, you need to create a Draft Kings account, deposit $5, and play one game. By default, Draft Kings refunds you if you lose your first game (under $10) so you could theoretically get out of this deal with a dozen balls for free. If you can't help yourself, a $5 dozen is still a really good deal. I have an eBay auction closing tomorrow night so I'll probably take some of that PayPal money and give this a shot. I've never played Draft Kings before and now seems like a good shot. Hope they have yellow!
