If Wilson had brought this ball to market in yellow two years ago it would have been a tremendous success. Perhaps with Callaway upping the price of their premium balls they may still have an opportunity to make more of an impact.

can anyone compare Duo U to V1 or MTB Black/Red?

Softer and great feel. A joy off all club.

 

The cover is VERY thin, so a bad tree or cart path can really jack up a cover. Good part is the thin cover helps with the soft feel, bad part is durability.

 

Really like this ball I must say

I play it occasionally if the temps are a little colder. I play the FG Tour more than the DuoU

The Duo U was featured on the Wilson Facebook page the other day and I commented, “if this ball came in yellow it would be the number 1 selling ball!

Wilson’s response “stay tuned”

I also purchased 2 dozen. I’ve got about 10 dozen balls laying around and told myself I wasn’t going to buy anymore. This deal is too good to pass up.

 

Only 10 dozen....amateur! JK. I have like 20 dozen so I didn't buy any! :)

If this happens, I may have to try them!

Has anyone else noticed how easily the cover acquires permanent grass stains? Well, if you leave an uncleaned ball in the bag for a few days anyway.

 

Also, it's not very durable. I might still end up liking the ball, but those are two quick impressions.

Not usually a fan of really soft balls but couldn't pass up 2 dozen for $29 shipped. I'll give them a whirl.

 

Where did you find them at that price ?

I don't know about bigmoney but I got 'em first off the Hurricane Golf website for $12.49 plus $9.99 shipping and again off of eBay for $12.49 and $3.99 shipping. Bought four dozen the first time and seven the next time as I gave a couple from the first batch to my brother and a neighbor friend to try and they each wanted a couple dozen so I added them to my next order.

 

I normally play Srixon XV's and although I do think that the Duo U feels/sounds much softer than the XV I can't tell a lick of difference in performance.

 

Distance, spin and trajectory seem the same to me.

 

Also a little surprised to hear some of the negative comments regarding durability as I thought just the opposite. I absolutely drilled a tree dead center the other day and there wasn't a mark or discoloration visible anywhere on the ball. I've also bounced two off of concrete cart paths and while one showed a minor scrape the other one was perfect.

 

I have noticed a bit of the grass stain effect that some alluded to but it wipes off with a damp towel which I always use prior to putting anyways. Just seems to be a little different look than normal grass stains - a faint green hue that almost looks like paint to me.

 

As I said though, no big deal as it comes right off for me.
