Would love to test these balls but I already have. Best ball out there for me. I play ZStar and QStar tour. Q gives me a little more distance with the needed spin. Z gives me a little harder ball for the hottest part of our Deep South summers. Have fun testing and I hope they work for the testers as well as they do for me.
