Looking forward to your thoughts when you've had a chance to evaluate.

vandyland Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I am on the opposite side, I think I like having something to focus on. Strange as this may sound, at times I feel like I am not looking at the golf ball (or really anything during my swing) it is almost like my eyes are blurred and I realize after I hit the ball "I don't think I ever looked at it." Also, I am hoping the alignment feature is helpful on putts (in that you can see it as the ball is rolling) to tell if you putt stayed on line. That was on reason (the only reason really) I contemplated buying srixon DIVIDE golf balls. brogies, jbern, tdc1 and 1 other 4 Quote STZ 230 9.5* PinHawk SLF 16* STZ 230 Hybrid 21.25* MALTBY TS1-IM 5-GW Equalizer II 54* Glide 4.0 (S) 58* L.A.B.

Hoyoymac Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Congratulations to all of the testers. Been playing the Maxfli Tour ball for couple of years now after it was my top recommendation from the Ping Ballnamic fitting and the MyGolf Spy ball tests and ball lab confirmed it as a quality option at a great value. In the winter when it is colder to counteract the loss of distance I generally revert back to my previous gamer the Bridgestone Tour BRX ball because its a bit softer and doesn’t spin as much so it ges a bit further than the Maxfli Tour once the temps drop below 60 degrees. The Maxfli Tour X ball flies a bit higher and spins more for me than the Tour ball. The newer Tour S flies lower and spins less for me. Doing exactly what they claim. I preferred the previous generations alignment aid with the two lines over the current generation. Very curious what everyone’s thoughts are on the new max align markings.

Popular Post EnderinAZ Posted March 1 Popular Post Share Posted March 1 For this post I will attempt to explain my testing plan for the putter. I now know I will have 24 of the Tour X balls. In order to keep it as straight forward as possible and so I do not mix balls up on the initial unboxing I will mark a sleeve from each box with a separate color and number to identify the ball and lot. Move the A&M 9000 Putter Chipper Ball Tester to one of the practice greens at the Coyote run golf course. Use a plastic clipboard as a shim and set the putter head to that height. In this way I can set the head to a consistent height where ever on the greens I set the test up. Taking a non test ball and choosing the lowest setting on the 9000 run several test putts to establish both path and width of path I expect the TEST BALLS to travel. I will mark the path with plastic golf tees. Once the path has been established I will run several of the TEST BALLS to insure the path and width of path match the TEST BALLS path. Run each ball through the ball striker putter. Note, with a separate tee, any outlier ball travel. Either a ball that goes outside of the path or rolls significantly less or more than the others in the test run. Note the outlier ball and set aside for retest. The putter tester has three back swing distances. Run each test group through each back swing distance. Note outliers. Retest outliers. See if they repeat as outliers. To remove errors in the controllable variables I will use flat plastic ball markers to encircle the place where the ball will be positioned so the putter head can strike the ball in the same place on the ground and on the putter face. To remove errors in the uncontrollable variables such as the height of the grass or the wetness of the grass all 24 balls will be tested in the same test session. No tests will be conducted during strong or gusty winds. No tests will be conducted if the greens have been recently (under 1 week) cross cut, hole plugged or sanded. The 9000 is fairly heavy but in the case where movement of the entire tester might be in question I have made provisions to stake it down with large nails or tent stakes I really expect these balls to repeat flawlessly. If they do I will take the 9000 out onto the course in the evening when it clears of players and set it up on some really sloped portions of some of the greens of Coyote Run. Then run the tests again, and note what I find. brogies, buckpillar, BreakfastBall15 and 11 others 7 1 1 5 Quote Driver Sim Max2 Hybrids G430 2, 3, 4 Irons ZX4 6-PW Wedges Hi-Toe 50, 54, 58 Putter 2Ball Ten ArmLock Golf cart MGI Zip Navigator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to add more data points for you to look at, but I'm going to throw this out there anyway... Supposedly the CG is perfect when the alignment aid is pointed at the target. What if the alignment aid is perpendicular to the target (or some other angle from the target)? Do you think you'd be able to see the difference in your A&M 9000?

Do you think you'd be able to see the difference in your A&M 9000? Also, where'd you come up with the name? If the CG is good the alignment arrow will start out at an angle and if the ball is rolling straight it should finish reasonably close to that same angle. It most likely will change as the ball speed ebbs and the grass itself begins to apply directional slowing of the ball. If not and the ball rolls wanky then that will require more in depth testing (and more fun!) I will give that a try. Thanks for the input! The name?

I have seen testing when a golf ball has been balanced and some say big difference and some say no difference. If Maxfli is going through the trouble of aligning every ball, I figure it sure can't hurt to line up tee shots and putts when I have the ball in my hands. I don't painstakingly actually line it up, I just put it roughly on my line. To actually have the ball tested in real world conditions to see if it can wander off line when it isn't balanced is such a treat. I am looking forward to following your findings.

GolfSpy_APH Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 On 2/28/2024 at 5:05 PM, EnderinAZ said: Hey Spies, I have been playing golf pretty steadily for about 33 years and my handicap bounces between 8 and 13 depending upon which part of me is broken. Last one was a bicycle crash that, well, kind of rearranged my right shoulder a bit. That said I am thoroughly addicted to this silly game. I play mostly at a semi private course three to four days a week. My ball of choice is the Srixon Z Star divide. Maxfli, according to the write up above, claims: Center of Gravity Balanced with MAX ALIGN Technology. To me this is like a Heinz commercial that says they have made a “better tasting ketchup”. I mean how do you know? Better than what? According to NASA the center of gravity is the” average weight location an object”. They also say that determining the center of gravity is a complicated procedure because the weight may not be distributed evenly within the body, And Maxfli has balanced the center of gravity? See what I mean about a better tasting ketchup? How do we test that? Especially in a real world non test lab environment. I am pretty sure I have figured out a way, at least for putting and chipping. If you have a few more minutes I will introduce you to the A&M 9000 Portable Putting and Chipping Ball Tester. It started with an idea, then a couple of drawings like this one. 11 Then I headed to the garage, hardware store, and a thrift store for some bits and pieces, a couple of eye bolts, and an old bed frame. I am using an old wedge and an older Ping putter head as my impact devices. Some cutting, and fitting, and a bit of welding, and the 9000 started to take shape. Not the final product, but some crucial testing that told me this will work. I still need to add some stops to set the putter head to a repeatable distance from the ball. I am going to do 3 stops. The wedge tester will also have three drop distance stops. I will finish the construction over the next couple of days, then figure out how to put youtube videos up so you can see exactly what I see as we put these balls through their on green and green side paces using a 99% repeatable stroke distance and impact strength. In my next post I will explain the tests I intend to do, how I will use 2 IPads for cameras, and the comparison groups once the balls get here. Wow....

Shrek74 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 (edited) 15 minutes ago, EnderinAZ said: Oh this is excellent, I had no idea what the salt water test was! Yeah, most do the drop and spin multiple times to see how unbalanced a ball is. The farther apart the dots are, the better balanced they are. Gabe on Let's Play Thru did this too, last year. Although I don't exactly remember his results. I'll have to watch it again. And looks like AJ did this test a couple years ago too.

Regardless I can't wait to see the results I definitely don't think you need to try to live up to the A&M 9000! Since @EnderinAZ based the name on Home Improvement, he's more than likely going to be sending the golf balls from Az to Mi with that thing! Based on your profile, your hdcp, swing speed, biggest strength and biggest weakness are very similar to mine (other than you swing from the wrong side of the ball haha). I will definitely be interested in your numbers, on-course results and feel results. Have fun and enjoy the test!

It's a follow-up Gabe did with the balls that were not balanced.
