Loads, never bought a ball in my life. Been found, won or given as a Xmas present.... Was given 24 srixon soft feel about 2 years ago and I've still got 2 boxes new left with rest banged up in my bag. Found a callaway soft which felt better than the srixon, pro v1 when the course is mega dry and hard and recently found a wilson staff soft feel which is really good... And they cost less than the other brands when I looked. And winter, hey anything goes there

I carry the Wilson Staff Fifty Elite balls in yellow and play them. I also carry Titleist NXT white in my bag and play them when I'm not in the mood to play a yellow ball. They are my two go to balls.

 

When I find a ball on the course I'll throw it in my bag . I'll carry the found balls in my bag until I have to many in my bag then I throw them in a bucket at home. I'll give those away from time to time. I usually don't lose more than a ball or two a round but on those days where my game is off I'll pull a found ball out and play that to see if I like it. You never know when you might find a ball you like better.

 

I was playing las Sunday and the rough was taller than normal. I lost a few balls right off the fairway on the front nine. I found a newer model Top Flite in the rough looking for my ball. I decided to give it a try and ended up shooting a great back nine with it. I won't switch to that model but I could play it if I needed a ball. Over the yrs. when I switch to a new ball it usually because I had found one, tried it out and liked it better than my gamer.

I often have more than one. But all of them will be one of 3 or 4 balls on the market. My scores might not care all that much but I dislike rock hard balls and balls that do not spin, and balls that spin too much, go too high, and NOTHING that is not round and white like a proper golf ball was meant to be :-).

I never play found balls. If I find a ball it goes in my donation bag for the First Tee.

I usually play yellow Srixon Z-Stars, but the 12th hole on my home course is to the right of the driving range, and always filled with yellow range balls. I carry a sleeve of white Z-Stars for that hole.
