I don't know what ball to try next...

TP LDP, AD333, HX Hot... others?
I'm nearing the end of my Burner LDP bucket from LGB and am looking to reorder something. Problem is, I THINK I want something 'new'. Not that there's anything wrong with them, but I'm never satisfied (and I get bored and like new and different things, haha). So option one is to re-up with the LDPs. Another is to go for the 'next level' and get a bucket of TP LDPs.

Of course, I played four holes of GREAT golf with a found Callaway HX Hot this morning. And everyone recommends the Srixon AD333 in this range as well. Any thoughts or suggestions on what else to try? I'm looking in the $20/bucket range on LostGolfBalls, FWIW. The most attractive thing about the Burner LDP and the HX Hot is that they come in buckets of 100, too...

Sounds crazy but best rounds I ever played were using the HX Hot, this ball for me is the longest and straightest. This ball doesn't want to get lost and I even putt well with it, tend to leave a lot less putts short.

Doesn't sound THAT crazy! Played the best few holes of golf in the past year or so with my found HX Hot!! Think I might split an order - bucket of TP LDPs and a couple dozen HX Hots. Already have a dozen AD333s at home and a few Burner LDPs left to burn through (get it?!).

bridgestone e5 is my new ball of choice but i would use the e6 if i was having trouble keeping my drives in the fairway, i bought a couple dozen of both, so far the e5's are working great and feels excellent

Well, as always I changed my mind last minute. Picked up a dozen 5A Srixon AD333s, a dozen 4A Srixon AD333s (these brought my total to almost the exact amount in my Paypal account... heaven forbid I not spend it all), and a bucket of... wait for it....

AAAAA Callaway Warbirds. I know this is supposed to be a rock, it's supposed to suck, whatever. But I've found a few of these on the course recently, played them, and hit it beautifully. Long, straight, you name it. I swing on the slower side, somewhat purposefully, so maybe that's why these work so well? And to me, they don't feel like a total rock of a ball, either. Not the softest I've ever hit, but soft enough. Now, perhaps I'll find that the holes I've played with this ball were a fluke and I'll end up hating them, but I had to find out.
