~10 dozen ProV1x
~4 dozen Letahl
~2 dozen Project a
~2 dozen TP Red LDP
~5 dozen Cally Chrome+
~4 dozen Cally Hex Black Tour
~3 dozen B330-S
~3 dozen B330-RXS
~3 dozen Gamer Tour
~4 dozen Z Star XV

That's what I can come up with off the top of my head. I also have a grab bag of ~ 5 dozen NXT tours and other random balls. I'm a sucker for a deal on premium balls, but I literally dont need any for a long time

All I have are balls that I find.

3 dozen Callaways mix of HX tour & Speed Regime
4 dozen Bridgestone mix of the various 330's
4 dozen Taylormade mix of TP5, Lethal, & whatever last years name was
4 dozen Srixon Z Star mix
21 dozen NXT Tour mix
26 dozen ProV
21 dozen ProVX
250 dozen mixed balls; these are in bags of 120 that consist of all the other balls you can just about think of

Now all of these I will sell on eBay. I keep the older ProV & ProVX's from the 392 & 334 models & earlier. Then some of the Srixon Z & Q Stars. The old TP red & black, Bridgestone E5's, & some of the MG balls. I have about 5-6 dozen total of this mix of balls for myself.

Just a bunch of them that do not move very far from their carts. If you were to watch a lot of the swings, that would answer the bad golfer part. Most of the locals just play, the range is foreign territory. Rarely does anyone walk the course. The first couple of years I was just awe struck by the amount I would find. Now even on a bad year I will have at least 15-16 bags of the 120 mixed balls. Last year I didn't sell any ProV's so the amount is a 2 season accumilation. I am a happy camper!! If nothing else it pays for my membership every year. Makes the wife happy so all is well.

I blame golfwrx for my current accumulation of balls over the last year. Before joining this forum I never had more than two dozen new balls at a time. But hey, I'm not complaining either. My collection now consists of:

- 9 dozen lethal practice
- 3 dozen project a practice
- 2 dozen rocketballz urethane
- 2 dozen tour preferred x
- 7 dozen 20xi-x 2013 edition
- 2 dozen ndx heat
- 1 dozen Wilson duo
- and some random sleeves of Callaway hx bite and Nike pd soft

I'm the cheapskate loaded up on cheap golf balls until my game improves. Here is what I have so far:

About 8 dozen Top Flite XLs
5 dozen Slazenger Raw Distance
3 dozen Wilson Titanium
4 dozen Wilson Staff Duo

Might start looking at better golf balls in the coming weeks, today was the first round where I didn't lose a golf ball!

2 dozen Pro V1 with #69
1 dozen Pro V1X with a special logo from my daughters place of employment
2 dozen NXT Tours
2 sleeves of the new Callaway Chrome Soft
random Titleist, Bridgestone B30 RX and Callaway balls in boxes.

No way near as much as the real golf ball horders but enough for most of the season.

Also will try a box of the new Titleist Pro V1's when the weather gets warmer and my swing is better.

Just ordered 6 dozen Hex Blacks for $21.98 per dozen and have maybe a dozen Q / Z Stars left from last year. Oh and a friend who finds golf balls all the time has about 4 dozen mint Callaways he is giving me. So I check in at approximately 11 dozen.

Four dozen Tour Preferred, all number 5s (my favorite!)
Three dozen ProV1

One dozen of the ProVs have the TPC Sawgrass logo. I worked for the Tour for a few years and every Christmas in the pro shop they'd have a member/employee sale where you'd do all your shopping and then at checkout, you'd draw an ornament. Some were good for 30 percent off your order (which was the employee discount, so basically a wash), some 50 percent and a couple were 100 percent off. I had some family gifts in hand and at the last minute threw in a dozen ProVs. Of course at Sawgrass they're $60/doz retail, but the worst I was going to get them for was $42. But I drew a 50 percent ornament so they were $30. Of course I jokingly asked the checkout lady if I could grab more and she said no.

Geez I thought keeping 5-6 dozen B330-s sitting around was bad....

I also have a 5 gallon bucket of "practice balls" which are mostly old worn balls out of my bag or stuff I find. I keep an old range bag filled up with them for practice chipping/putting.

I've been trying a lot of golf balls last year to find a favorite. The Zstar, U4 and U6 have bencome my main gamers. U6 mainly when its windy. If I'm in a funk. I play the cheapy balls. Vacation destination courses: TPX U6 and Zstar. Twilight or overcast Yellow Zstar. Prov1 if the greens are fast.
