Golf Ball questions....What one to choose??

Pro v1, callaway tour i(x), Bridgestone??

Well, first off I would like to say thanks for even looking at this post.

Ok, so here is the deal. I live in the middle of Kansas, and my high school team still plays sand greens. Yes the greens are sand... We also have grass green meets too. I really like the feel of my Callaway HX Hot Plus off my driver and irons. It absolutly bombs and it works well on sand greens because the ball just rolls to a stop in a hurry. I wont even go into putting on a sand green because it is so different.

On grass greens, however, i absolutly HATE that the ball wont stop. I got it to spin back 3 feet last week after a 180 yard 7 iron, which was the first time I ever got backspin, and I have tried alot. I also dont like how hard it feels off my putter... Anyway, I was looking at some new balls, those being the Pro V1 (found one last meet), Callaway i series, and the Bridgestone B330/B330-S. Which one do you guys prefer? Those Pro Vs are alot, and there are cheaper alternatives out there.

I planned on buying 12 of each from lostgolfballs.com, unless you guys said something to change my mind... Thoughts?

EDIT: Forgot to mention that these need to be durable. I have callaway X-Tour irons, and will most likely be getting volkey wedges soon... Plus sand is a killer...

Don't forget the Srixon Z-stars, the most durable premium golf ball available (IMHO).
