  1. mina its sam i suggest a srixon zurc or zurs they spin but also give u a good distance average


  2. totally use the titlest

  3. if you want a soft ball, hit MC lady. im a guy and i use them sometimes and they feel really soft off the club head. but i like the Pro v1/v1x. i only hit the pro v1's  that i find(find like 3 per round) because im not good enough to spend 3 dollars per ball.

  4. My daughter is 14 and a 9 handicap.  She uses the Callaway ix.  No problem stopping it on the greens and she averages about 230- 240 on drives and as long as 260. She also uses the Nike Power, long and soft (green box) and likes those as they are less expensive.

  5. Hey mina it's Nathan. Mina use a Top flite D2! man up and go for it!

    My real answer is Maybe callayway ix?

    (PS i know this girl.)

  6. Callaway HX Hot Bite would be a great golf ball for you because you get green grabing control and softness.  The Callaway tour ix and tour i gives you green control too. I believe you should stick to callaway but try these golf balls. You may also want to try the HX tour and HX tour 56.

  7. I'm not a junior golfer. Actually, I'm almost four times your age.

    From the way you phrased your question, it appears that you desire a ball that gives you both distance and control. You, therefore, need a ball that spins low off the tee, but spins high with a wedge.

    I use the Titleist Pro V1x because I have determined that it is the best for me. What is good for me, however, may not be good for you. The best way to determine which ball is best suited for you is to test golf balls and see which one works best with your swing ang game characteristics. This, however, takes a lot of time considering the number of balls in the market.

    If you do not subscribe to GOLF Magazine (published by Sports Illustrated), try to find a copy of the February 2008 issue. The cover story is "Revealed: The BEST BALL FOR YOU!". The magazine tested 54 models using a robot. They crunched the results and came up with a grid of products and their characteristics.

    Based on your apparent requirements and the results of the magazine tests, the best ball for you is a Titleist Pro V1x or a Nike One Platinum. Both spin low off the tee for distance and spin high for greenside control. There is a some distance loss but it is minimal which a controlled pitch or chip can make up for.

  8. use the PRO V1x.  Its longer off the tee than the pro v1 and it gives me a lot of spin.  Titleist, the #1 ball in golf.

  9. There are soft callaway balls out there. If you want more control (which you should be looking for when playing off 10) then don't use Callaway Big Bertha, or Warbird.

    Callaway have HX Tour, HX Red and Blue which are really good for spin aswell as giving you the distance just like ProV1's.

    I know that this is going off topic alittle bit, but I just want to mention it.

    Just because ProV1s are "the best" it doesn't mean it will make the ball the most suitable for you. To make the ball fly further and get spin you need the ball with the correct compression to match your swing speed.

    For golfers with slower swing speeds, the high compression balls do not benefit them at all. They simply do not generate enough club head speed to compress the ball enough at impact to get the required response. The balls will feel very hard to hit. Golfers with slow swing speed will find they get better overall playability from lower compression balls.

    That are alot of golf balls out there that will be soft and react on the green well. Try using a Pro V1 and see how it feels around the green.

    Otherwise try something like:

    Srixon Soft Feel

    Callaway HX Red/Blue or Tour

    Maxfli A3 have a soft feel to them.

    I hope I have helped you, and also try this website using the chart to see which is better for distance, spin, price etc etc.
