Best ball under $25

[BlackDiamondPar5]

Seems like last year I could get nxt tours at Dicks on sale for $25 fairly frequently. Is my memory wrong? Nxt and nxt tour is a great ball.

For $20, give the Wilson Duo a shot.

these are supposed to be good, I actually want to try some I think.
Ebay and golf etail also have great deals, especially in bulk

[mozgolf]

I have had a good run with the DX3 Soft from Wilson, seems to do all it says on the box, as a three piece ball it stops pretty well and is discounted anywhere you can actually find it

Gamer V2 for $10/dz on the bay FTW.

I was wondering the same thing a couple of days ago.

 

If he's not, at least we've been productive practicing our splendid typing skills

Macgregor VIP. It is a premium[color=#1C2837][size=2] urethane ball that golfsmith tried to sell for $39/doz. Some stores have them for 2 for $30 right now. I have played it and it is a VERY good ball and can't be beat for the money.[/size][/color]

I'm on a similar hunt, so the responses have been helpful to me... other than the fact I have a box of the V2s and just wasn't that impressed with them.

 

I like the E5 alot, but wasn't getting as much spin as I usually do... then again, the last time I played I missed the green alot, so my sample size is small.

 

Once my game gets back to being consistent, I will find the "right" cheap ball for me.

$25 for a ball is pretty steep...but seriously I echo what others have said lostgolfballs.com. Callaway Tour I, Nike One Tour or 20-XIs, Titleist Pro VI, etc. all would suit your needs for under $25.

[aiyyer]

Please - Gamer V2. If your game is self assured and you are comfortable with the Top Flite moniker, nothing beats the gamer for the Mid Capper

[stasek]

Surprised nobody mentioned this.... Penta Practice $20/dozen at Golf Galaxy.

[jonn443]

Wilson FG Tour...$20 on the bay

I went to golf galaxy last week picked up 2 dozen for $35 and also got two bag towels. Pretty good deal.

I cannot believe noone has mentioned the srixon qstar .. 24.99 and is a great ball.. But ny second favorite by far is the gamer v2. If u haven't tried this ball for the price.. Ur missing out

[nvmyprixgt]

Gamer V2 no doubt. In Golf Digest, they rated it as the best ball under $40 and said if it just a little more spin it would be as good as any TOUR ball.

Gamer V2 cannot be beat for the $$

Nothing else is close...nothing

Shot even par on the front 9 this weekend with the V2

The back 9 was not so good...but it was not the balls fault !

The only reason I ever look at other balls is to avoid saying I'm playing a "Top Flite" but the truth of the matter is the V2 is hard to beat at any price
[/quote]

The Gamer V2 is the sh@#!!!! Nothing is better than out-driving and out-playing everyone in your group while rocking a Top-Flite. Say it loud and say it proud. Top-Flite!

[gohatters]

another +1 for the Gamer V2 Let's just hope they stay in production after Dick's Sporting Goods bought Top-Flite from Cally

Callaway HX Diablo Tour $21 at local walmart.

I normally play proV1x but at the start and end of the golf season or when My game is off I will play these.

For the money these are hard to beat - good distance off driver, very long off the irons and more than enough green side spin for normal condition greens. IMHO these are superior to NXT Tour. The only real negative is they feel a little hard and hot off the putter but you quickly get used to that....

That's interesting that you say they feel hot off the putter.
I'm running out of the gross of TP reds I won and I'm looking for the "Pro V" for $2 as well. I've been intrigued by the Diablo tour so I went to GS and took some to the putting green and they felt like a marshmellow that really rebounded.
Think I'm going to do a 6 doz deal on ebay.

This ball is currenty marked down to $12.97/dozen at my local Golfsmith. They have 2 versions of the ball. The older version (made in Japan) is clearly the old Srixon URS ball in disguise. This was Srixon's top of the line ball 4 years ago.

The newer version of the VIP is made in Taiwan. I have no idea who makes it. The newer version has a different dimple pattern, and feels "tacky" out of the box vs. the older ball which feels "slippery."

[ed27063]

My store has it the other way around I though. The Taiwan version where at 12.95 and the Japan version where the higher version.

Have to take the kids down for a hair cut today. Will stop over and double check after dropping them off.

[ed27063]

Both the Taiwan and Japan manufacture version are now 12.95/doz.
