Yes I'm sure
Do premium/urethane balls really benefit *everyone*??

Well I used the Inesis 900 today just see if I had different feelings on it this time. I did notice it check a bit more on pitches and chips, which admittedly was handy on a bone dry course, especially when I overhit a couple of chips that then stopped only 6 or 8 feet past when I thought they'd be long gone. So I think I'll keep using them, until we get into winter golf anyway. I didn't lose one either so maybe they really don't spin off line more.

Hit the AVX today which is a urethane cover. Definitely a lower flight but I was surprised how grabby it was on firm greens. Hit a couple of decent chip and runs and they bit on the first bounce and didn't run out as far as I hoped. Hit a lovely lofted pitch over the pond at our last and it stopped nice and quick to set up a birdie. Very stable in windy conditions and I was impressed. For my level, I would argue it may be far better for my game than a ProV1 or ProV1x

Yeah I did have that issue as well once or twice as I'm used to more roll. Something to get used to.

He’s off scratch with a AD333.
Why would he want to change.?

Having seen how it reacted I will adjust where I land it tomorrow (or take loft off). Very impressed with it for my level of golf

lol, if he's off scratch I'm sure he could play with any ball, it's just about preference. I was curious what he particularly liked about it.

But he has it under control so if he changes he might go up not down.!To play off +2??

He might like the fact it dosnt grab and hold.
Players vary so much.
My mate is off 1 he plays AVX because he spins them less with the short irons.
He just likes it that way.
It also depends on the greens you play on most of the time.
If they are soft but quick backspin is the last thing you want unless your yardages are spot on.

I think Mark Crossfield has recently uploaded a video about the Srixon and Callaway range of balls, can’t remember exactly what was the outcome but I’m sure they essentially were all very similar in length and spin.
