I found a yellow Srixon - it just looked hard and shiney
The yellow Z-Stars certainly don't look right, they remind me of the balls you get at crazy golf courses.
just new to this thread, but Golf balls should only be white unless your on a concrete crazy golf course.
Really ?

I'm curious, why should golf balls only be white?

Slightly away from the OP's question but why are balls predominantly white with a few yellows and oranges available. Why not red or blue or purple or whatever? Would no-one buy them? Or would it be a colourful addition to the game that encouraged a more youthful, modern, fun outlook on the game and maybe could tempt more kids to play?
Saw 2 guys arguing at the weekend over who's White Titleist Pro V1 Number 2 with 2 Black dots was who's when they landed within feet of other....

I'd buy different coloured balls...not very traditional, but as it's been mentioned it would add some fun!

Absolutely. Yellow balls, or any other colour for that matter, are just a gimmick. No increase in performance, no discernible increase in visibility (IMO).
If a different coloured ball is all it takes to attract someone to the game, in the curious expectation that it would somehow make the game more 'fun', then I'd say they don't understand the game at all - golf is not meant to be fun :angry:

Because it's on my personal list of things that should just be so...
1) Golf balls should be white
2) Ball retrievers should be banned
3) Pre-shot routines should be, well, I dunno, I just don't like them.
4) No man should get more than 1 shot per hole
We don't need to discuss any of these except for number 1 in this thread

Then said two guys should have identified their balls to each other on the first tee and ensured they were different. Presumably, since neither could positively identify his ball, they took the appropriate action under the lost ball rule?
yes really!

A reasonable answer. I'd agree with 3 of the above, ball colour wouldn't bother me. Overly keen practitioners of a prolonged number 3 should be horse whipped off the course and publicly flogged at the nearest town square........not that PSRs bother me.
I'm curious and I'm assuming you don't agree?

The day that Titleist release a yellow Pro V1 will be the same day that they release a white driver with multi-coloured alignment aids. 
There probably is a market for them (very small) but I cannot see Titleist making them.

Ain't nothing wrong with yellow balls at all.
They do show up better in dull or wet conditions.
. Easier to find amongst the billions of lost white balls....you know from yards away it's yours...don't get the "no, that's not mine...no that's not mine either...what you playing....<repeat>"

I like the Srixon Z stars in yellow but there is no way there will be a Pro V in yellow anytime soon. I do think Hawkeye has "issues" but having seen him close up recently you can rest assured he is swinging well in that straitjacket

They didn't tee off together. One was playing down the 8th and the other up the 13th that runs parallel. Both were in the semi rough between the fairways. I have no idea what they did but I had a laugh watching them while waiting!
