OK seen to thread on Lake balls and a lot of sensible comment about deterioration and inconsistency - makes sense. Why, however, do the top balls have such a following?
1. Yardage. At amateur level, the difference cannot make a stroke in a single hole. Putting aside mis-hits, I might have to take a less lofted club but in distance terms I can always get to the green in regulation with my cheaper balls (new ones)
2. Putting. Can't see how it makes a difference once you are used to your ball of choice.
3. Back-spin. Maybe some day!
