For anyone wondering about the 'dot' balls, I played a full round with a couple of them this past weekend, and they played as well or better for me than the non-dot balls. This was especially reassuring for me, as I seemed to get an inordinate amount of dot balls in my shipment from Woot. Still absolutely loving the Lethals.

Speaking of dot balls , anyone feel like these are lower spin then normal? Especially driver , though entirely anecdotal I've had two rounds playing a "dot" ball and getting more a lower flight and more distance.

I felt the same way. Others were saying they spun more, but to me they spun less.

I can buy into the lower spin angle on the dots, but again, that is purely anecdotal. Trust me, there was little to no difference in spin in the short game vs the non-dots. Approach shots, pitches and chips were all spot-on with the dots. But now that I think about it, I may have scored a better round with the dots because shots were a bit straighter and longer than usual for me. Right up my alley to be honest, as the regular Lethals can sometimes accentuate a spinny shot for me. Picking nits though--they're both great balls.

Me too. Actually surprised that there aren't a few more people looking to unload some of their "bonus" balls.

I keep hoping they might show up on the BST but thus far I've been disappointed...just a poor student who lost out on a crazy ball deal. And my penta tp3 used stock is running extremely low so this deal would've helped big time. I would've begged but I know how wrx doesn't like stuff like that in non-BST threads haha.

Have you guys seen some of the pictures in this thread?

Have you guys ever watched some of those TV show about hoarders? Have you seen what those people go through just give up some of their stash?

Good luck!

Some people who benefitted from the processing inadequacies of Woot sent dozens of Lethals to other WRXers at no cost and they also paid the shipping. They also donated several dozens to a charity golf event as a prize.

Relax. We know that not everybody in this thread is stingy and selfish........or has a pathological need to hoard things they will never use.

It's all in good fun........mostly. :rolleyes:

I will speak on behave of the people that received triple orders for I was one as well. 1st) You are so giddy from the sight of all the balls. 2nd) You tell your friends and family of the good fortune because all your life nothing like this has even come close to you. It has always been your friends and family. 3rd) All your friends and family become moochers and try to lay a guilt trip on you so you will give them your balls. 4th) You put your house up for sale and relocate to another state so you can get away from the "deadbeats". 5th) You join a new club and realize the course is much harder than you thought it would be causing you to not only loose your balls but drive your average up.

So the moral of the story is....I got my triple order!!!!!!!!


Just the other night I came home early from work and caught my neighbor sneaking out the back door. He tried to give me some lame excuse about "being sorry for sleeping with my wife" and this is " the only time, I swear" but I knew he was lying. He was after MY balls.

The pro at my course told me today that these balls cannot be used in tournament play because they have "Practice" stamped on them.

Can anyone confirm this?

The pro is wrong unless they have a local rule stipulated.
