Decent ball offers?

@jacko totally agree but the black ones I'm currently using are so much more durable for some reason !
Now them callaways are the ultimate crap ball. Literally unusable after 9 holes (but very good for them 9 holes)
Completely ruined mine after a few full sand wedges.

Awful ball, was like going back to using a balata the way they split and cut up. Returned more than a dozen balls that had been damaged to Callaway

I have to say my experience is totally the opposite to this. In fact I would say the Callaway Hex Chrome are one of the most durable balls I've owned. I've used them for several rounds with no major signs of wear which is more than I can say for other premium balls. Are you sure we're talking about the same balls? Maybe the Hex Chrome Plus have an issue? I believe some of the early ones had an issue but Callaway made a new cover improving on this. Maybe there were some bad early batches.
Now mine are the yellow ones so maybe they last longer but I also have friends who play the Chrome soft and get many a round out of them.
