Dunlop DP1- V3 golf balls

[palindromicbob]

Which are best; the dp1 or the nz9v3

Based on sportsdirect prices the NZ9-V3 is probably offering better value. If the DP1-V3 is £15 in store then you'll get a slightly better feeling ball that I would personally choose over the likes of the AD333 or other similar price range balls.

The NZ9 is a 2 piece, it feels pretty rock like and is nothing special.

Genuinely impressed by the DP1 however.

Hi.The nz9v3 is a three piece. The v2 is the two piece

I got a dozen of these for Christmas. Very, very impressed with them. Great feel off all clubs and was getting spin on the greens.
Much better ball than Srixon Soft Feel which Fat Ashley sells for £13.99 per dozen. For an extra £6 you het a 3 piece ball.
The DP1 V3 doesn't mark or cut up unless you smack one into a tree

Been Using these for a while and i really like them. give me plenty of feel around the green and they don't feel like your hitting a concrete block with everything else in the bag.

Dunlop are making great strides with their top end products (using the NZ9 iron's which have seen decent reviews online for a 2nd season) but sadly , they will always have that stigma of being at the bottom end of the cheap market, and that's a shame.

Back in the day Dunlop made some great balls. If it works for you does it matter who makes it or what name is on it? Heard about a blind ball test recently where the DP1-V3 actually came well inside the top 10!

Must reiterate how impressed I am with the DP1-V3. I really like the noise it gives off the clubs. Hit a full 56 into a flat green on my 18th. Landed a foot from the pin, took one bounce and then zipped back 4 or 5 metres. Really has all the attributes of a ball 3x the price!

Used the NZ9v3, which definitely is a 3 piece ball for the first time Saturday. Very impressed and thought it a better ball than the Srixon AD333 so very good value for the price

The DP1's were £19.99 in store

Popped into European Golf yesterday to restock - priced £19.99 on the shelf but got them to check their own website price and they dropped them to £15. Not sure if Sports Direct stores would do the same but they are the same company.

Also, speaking to the guy in the shop, he said he's gone on the launch monitor with them and compared them to other 3 piece balls and he said they were 'uncannily like the z-star' and that they were from the same factory. You can take that with a pinch of salt but I was already buying them so there was no need for any sales guff.
