MY Golf Spy live ball testing?


Recommended Posts

Latest tweet from My Golf Spy. No doubt I’d watch this.

 

 

Thinking we should do a LIVE Golf Ball Test. What do you think?

 

This would end the debate once and for all.

 

Soft is slow.

Would love to see it. I definitely trust the data they already provided, but would be awesome to see live.

I don't need to see a live ball test, on Saturday I played beautifully and hit the ball really well and my longest drive was 263 yards. I played on Monday, hit the ball just as well but my longest drive was 313 yards!! The difference was Saturday I used a Chrome Soft and Monday I used a Srixon Zstar. 50 yards difference and the conditions on Monday were colder and damper 😵😁😎

How many more rounds for your baseline? Also remember to play your normal game to set your baseline, then Unleash the beast.. LOL

Clearly those 50 yards were all due to the ball, and nothing else... 😁

Knowing Nunfa he is juicing for the Cobra Challenge. Probably going to need him to pee in a cup before all is said and done.

That wasn't the Z Star XV but the softer Z Star?

So no more "Callaway chrome soft" as in soft balls don't go very far, but 50 yrds less, that's amazing. I just looked in my bag and there were a couple of the CS, into the garbage they go.

Got a box that I’ll be gifting away

If you gained 50 yards you must have had a sleeve of duds. I've never given up or gained anywhere close to that kind of distance from any modern and current issue ball. Maybe it was your breakfast or something. LOL

Gotta say, I've been playing z star all year. Been struggling with iron distance so a friend told me to go back to duo. Got my distance back immediately. Did multiple on course tests, and while some were even, there were some holes where I just couldn't get the z star to the green. Tried as many as 5 balls on some approaches. 

 

Z star also feels like eating a jawbreaker in comparison. 

I'm going back to duo. No need to further test for me. I know not everyone can do a real ball test like this but if possible you should. 

 

Low single digits. Swing speed at 105 or so. Just wanting to say if soft balls work for me and my speed they should work for most people

A live video of the entire test would be mind numbingly boring. A short, edited video detailing the testing approach and a few sample shots would be more useful to most people.
