Samuel Camazzola Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Would have been good to have seen him in competitive action again this month to gain some momentum. If he avoids injuries, he'll pick up a title or two next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armageddon Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Anybody interest in a Titleist 915H #3 (21 degree hybrid with Diamana Red regular shaft). Golfclubsforcash in Edinburgh have 2 for ?109 and ?119 and this is in much better condition. A JKB member can have it for ?80. Gents - you're brutal. I'd take ?70 from a jambo for this.

Also felt like they have the finish all wrong. The little par 3 beside the clubhouse should be the 18th. Can't grumble, rare to find a parkland course on full greens and no mats.

He's off 2 and if it's good enough for him I'm guessing it's decent?! They look crazy when they spin on the green out of a bunker. I like to draw a line on my ball for putting, which is why I've never tried using one of those Truvis fellys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armageddon Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I used the Srixon Z Star last season, committed to 2 boxes (or should I say I was given 2 boxes!) I love a solid straight line for putting but hear the football markings make the ball look bigger - or am I being fed duff info? 2017 will be back to the ProV1x I think.

Before you revert to a ProV1, have a shot with a Vice Pro. They are only sold directly through their site and are a lot cheaper. The more you buy, more the price per ball drops. I went halves with a mate to get 30 each. Cost just over ?50 each. A dozen ProV1's can cost ?40ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sten Guns Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) The Nike RZN platinum that Rory uses is only ?24.99 a dozen just now. They were ?40 like Pro V's but you can pick them up cheap now Nike are exiting the hardware side of things. 2 boxes are ?45 at American Golf. ?22.50 a dozen for premium balls seems reasonable?

Not sure if they make the ball look bigger, they are certainly advertised for that but I'm not convinced. They do look great when chipping and putting though. Winter ball though and I will also be returning to pro v1x start of the season. I got a great deal the past couple years for them. Sure it was ?110 for 4 dozen from scottsdale golf, which has ran around easter time, however you had to get them personalised. Two simple initials doesn't look to wanky though.
