GD – “I find this course highly navigable.” yes…I think that word will stick . You should check it out for sure, I will loan you a ball or two or three, whatever it takes.

Heather – You are basically ‘scratch’ in our book .

Hack: nice use of navigable.
Could that be a new golf word? New media journalism? Or, just Magellan navigable? Maybe….is that pot belly bunker navigable? You now need to use that word at least once on the course next weekend.
Nice review. I’ve been curious about Srixon but never used them beyond the driving range….and you obviously know range ballz. Agree that their marketing is as dismal as Furyk….not that I don’t root for the guy.
I’ve also been curious about Bridgestone and the new Taylor ballz.

Hack–Would that make my 14 turned 15-index a “low-high handicapper,” or a “high-low handicapper?”

Heather – Mid-High handicapper = 20-30 index right? Right…right everyone? Of course that makes me a ‘low handicapper’. Yanno, in my own mind.

Great review. The rough on my course when it is in full strength, is a repository of golf balls, and I find as many as I lose. The Srixon ball, though rare, is keeper. I think I overspend on “Tour” balls anyway, but it is important to be able to stop the ball like you have it tied to a rope, and this is where the “Tour” balls ($4/ball) shine. On sloppy days with soft greens, even a Top Rock will do.

Who are you calling a mid-high handicapper?

I really love my Callaway tours even though it is probably a better ball than I should be playing. Whenever I try something else, I always come back.

Nice review and NICE photo of the keys in the fish bowl!

Thanks for that thorough review Hack. I too have been looking for the right ball for me for some time now – this one might fit the bill. I think I’ll give it a try. You’re right about one thing for sure – I’ve never found one in the rough or the water’s edge for that matter – no need to mark them!
