I read an article on cold weather balls. Northern Indiana it's cold in November and in March when we normally start. This article tested balls and said that the Bridgestone E6 was best for cold weather. They also liked the Titleist True Feel.
I had hip replacement and it is really hard to tie my golf shoes. I bought the Skechers slips in and love them. They are light and comfortable and are very stable. I was skeptical but the have been a God Send.
