I found some on ebay, brand new, 12 for £27. Free postage. Quite pleased. I was going to risk 'lake balls' or whatever but decided against it, I've never used them before and would like to see a set of lake balls before buying them.

I get mine from AG, the manager always does a price match for me. I tend to be a loyal as possible as it stands you in good stead I think for future purchases or problems.

Great ball, will take something quite special for me to move away from them.

I have to admit out of the mid range balls I prefer the feel and performance of the Srixon AD333 and the Wilson DX3 especially when it came to touch and feel around the greens.

Hex Black Tour isn't a midrange ball

Sorry to me they felt like a mid-range ball. I've only used them in cold temperatures to date and they may be much better in temperatures above 8 degrees however I wouldn't pay the extra over what I'd pay for an AD333 or Wilson DX 3 to put these in my bag.

According to Callaway it's their most highly engineered tour ball ever. You wouldn't be alone in not liking Callaway balls though

Picked up a box at my place for £25, cracking ball but prefer the Chrome version even better than the B33O RX that i've played for a few seasons now.

I get the Dx3's for £10 a dozen at my local AG, which is ridiculously cheap. However, the Hex Chrome and Hex Black are noticeably better balls IMO and deserve to be listed as premium balls. I would put them in the bag ahead of the Wilson's when the Dx3's price goes back up. Definitely worth the extra tenner.

I also rate the Dx3 far higher than the AD333, although would put them both firmly in the mid-range category.
