Worst Balls Ever

I bought two dozen of the Kirkland Signature 4-piece and never figured out what the hype was about. Not classifying as "worst" but any ball I play, don't like, and never will play again can be classified as "worst". Regarding the Top Flite, 25 years ago when the Oldsmobile was played at the Disney courses, I came into a few dozen Oldsmobile logo Top Flites (bequeathed from my  brother who would not play such a ball) and actually liked the ball. Don't remember the design of the ball but perhaps playing steel woods over titanium made the difference. Never found a Nike or Bridgestone ball I liked. My go to ball of choice is the ProV1x or the TP5.

OMG I still have nightmares about the Oldsmobile logo Top Flites. A course I worked at briefly the owner got a smokin hot deal on those. He bought 3 boxes about the size of a 55 gallon drum each full of those loosly packed. He had a heck of a price on them and the hacks bought them. That was all you found around there then even years after I left there. I think some how or another a lot of them ended up in his range balls.

The top flite titanium is the worst ball I've ever hit, it feels like a rock. The newer ones feel like a regular cheap ball, so they are fine.

Any ball you find is a good back yard practice ball imo

You're probably right, but I find a lot of ProV1s at my club and they go in my bag unless they're scuffed or look like they've been there for awhile. 

I bought a dozen Wilson balls three years ago because a friend recommended them. Cannot even remember the name but they were not very good around the greens.

There are a lot of spoiled rich kids at my club. They don't care because Mommy and Daddy will buy them another dozen.

More like a dozen every round it seems...
