Top Two Balls you play right now...

[Is Golf Fun or Work]

Non-winter balls:  Bridgestone 300 XS and Chrome Soft X

Winter:  330 RXS or anything urethane low-comp that's yellow and on super sale

Chrome Soft

Pro V1

Chrome Soft and Oncore Elxir.

I haven't hit a single shot in my last 20+ rounds that wasn't a Pro V1x. So my two most played ball models would be Pro V1x and Pro V1x. 

 

P.S. I do have a sleeve or two apiece of AVX and Pro V1 in the bag that holds my travel set of clubs. So next time we go to the beach I'll use those just to get rid of them. And believe me, that course at the beach is mighty good at getting rid of golf balls. Either OB left/Water right or Water left/OB right, depending on the hole.

Maxfli Tour, with Tour B RXS for winter. The Maxfli tour has been unbelievable, second only to ProV1, and spins plenty so that  the small amount of less spin compared to ProV1 is not an issue at half the price point.

i started this post, and I am only playing the 2022 AVX yellow, incredible ball, but want to toy with the  2022 BRX yellow, and see how that works

Not sure #2 but ProV1X Left Dash has been best ball I've ever used. I guess something similar to that if I can't find them - probably regular ProV1 is safest as the new X spins a little too much for me right now.

Pro V1 is a my go to standard, but the new CS X LS is a very interesting ball for my game.

[NoTalentLefty]

E12 contact and the TruFeel.

How do these compare? Current ProV1 player, but during my Callaway driver fitting the fitter suggested I use the CS X LS. Might pick up a sleeve and try.

TP5 love this ball from 150 and in.

Z Star Diamond fairway finder for sure

Current PROV1

2022 Chromesoft X LS

 

Different balls, but when it's windy out, the Chromesoft XLS shines.  To me, it's like the left dash, but just lower/piercing flight.

 

I hit the ball quite high, so my preference is low flight balls.  AVX would be number 3 on my list.

[Hat Trick]

Pro V1X and TP5

[scottaz]

Left Dash and the 22' CSX LS. Similar enough that I can swap them out during a round. I use the LS when I want a lower flight. LD is so hard to beat and usually what I go with, when it matters.

I play 3 usually at the same time.

 

Currently:

Titleist NXT 

Srixon Q Star 

Spalding Pure Speed

 

 

What do you think of the Spalding?

The Pure Speed was ok but I really like the SD Tour and I got a couple dozen off eBay for cheap.

 

Currently in my bag:

Spalding SD Tour in white 

Inesis Soft 500 in both matte white and matte orange

Honma D1 in gloss orange 

 

I can say I play all 3 about the same. Since spring I've been playing mostly white unless I get paired. The Honma is still pretty new to me but so far so good. The others I've been playing a few dozen rounds on.

Bridgestone BRX

Maybe a AVX......

Unless it's a brief try-out of a new or different ball, I actually play with the same model ball consistently for months at a time. So my "top two" is always a "top one". If I find one I like better then it's a new "top one" and the old one isn't top any more.

Exactly with you. Most of my bag changes every year or two (or less), but keep the same ball and putter for a long time - removes a variable I have to think about. Played the ProV1x exclusively for years, changed to the Prov1 a couple years ago (mostly because the recent Prov1 plays a lot more like the Prov1x used to - weird, not sure why Titleist did that). 

 

A lot of golfers have relationships with their balls (no, that is not nearly as weird and dirty as it sounds). You get to know exactly how they will behave when you want to draw or fade, and controlling backspin is huge. Identical swing going for a stop, hop and roll will produce very different behavior with different balls. 

 

I do have a few friends that are indifferent. Ask them what they play, and they'll say "whatever was on sale on the used golf ball website", or "the one I just found in the rough on the last hole". 

 

Personally though, of all the equipment in the bag, there may be nothing as important as the golf ball. Its the thing that's actually supposed to go in the hole.

Maxfli Tour and not sure on 2nd choice yet. Need to try a bunch of balls this year.

[deepred]

I’ve made a commitment to high visibility yellow or green this year. Bought up several dozen of the Wilson Duo Pro balls and back them up with the Titleist TruFeel. I was going to play the Tour Speed but the difference in performance vs price just isn’t there. 

[AP76]

Srixon z star xv or AD333 

[rd1959]

Wilson Staff 50 Elite. My game doesn't require any more than this ball delivers.

I've been messing around with W/S Triad, Duo, Smart Core, MG Golf C4 senior, Volvik Crystal, and Bridgestone E6. So far none of them has been able to replace the 50s.
