Hi there,
I'll start by telling you a little bit about me. I have about a 2 handicap, my driver swing speed is roughly 115mph, and I can't find a good ball for my game. I'm a senior in high school and I have used a different ball practically all 4 years. I just can't find the right ball for my game.
When I started high school, I used the Pro V1x. Then, my sophomore year, I switched to a Bridgestone E6+ and I never really noticed much of a difference, probably because I wasn't good enough to back then. My junior year I started with the Pro V1x and realized I was getting way too much spin on shots from about 100-150 yards. If I landed anywhere from the front of the green to near center, I would spin it back either off the green, or almost off the green. This absolutely killed me when the pin was in the back of the green. So I switched to the srxn Z-Star X, which was okay, but I never particularly liked it. It had a similar problem to the Velocity that I will talk about later in this post.
This year, I decided to try the Pro V1x again, (third time's the charm) in general, I am good enough now that when the pin is in the front I can throw the ball past it and spin it back, but I'm still not good enough to deal with center pins or pins in the back, unless I'm more than 150 yards out. I saw an ad for the Velocity and thought it might be the solution, so I tried it. I liked it to begin with, because it just stops within about +/- 1 foot from 100-150 yards and rolls out about 3-6ft with the longer irons, which is almost exactly what I was looking for, but I did find something I didn't like. From ~25-60 yards I get virtually no check whatsoever, and that is a problem. So, after writing this book, (sorry), I guess to summarize, I'm looking for something that spins more than a Velocity and less than a Pro V1x and is still a quality ball. I've looked and looked and never really found what I was looking for. I've played practically every ball out there and nothing felt just right for my game. I'm just looking for some suggestions on what to try, and also if you think I should just stick with what I'm already using (V1x or Velocity depending on the day or hole)
Thanks! Sorry again for writing a small novel.
