    All golf balls are the same. Hit it wide enough and you won’t find it.

    Z Star XV FTW; just works so well for me, low spin, penetrating ball flight. Picked up a heap of the GCO stock using the GCOWELCOME code on top of the already discounted rate. $54 for two dozen.

    Gone stale on the Fortes. A good ball but not as much distance as the Z Star. Using them for hit and giggles.

    Keen to try out the new Snell ball once I run out of Z Stars. That along with the Q Star tour. I believe that ball to be a reincarnation of the former Z Star SL

    Looking at doing the same in neon snot green.
    Do they ever do promo's like free hat or such?

    Z-stars are the go generally for me, found the same as you described - tour performance (i.e. penetrating flight, checks on the greens), but a lot cheaper than most other balls of the same ilk if you get a sale at GCO!

    Anyone had much experience with the Bridgestone Tour B line?

    Yeah, there’s a ball fitting tool on the website but I’ve tried several fitting specs and the pro is the one for me.

    Just got an email from Bridgestone that I've won a box of the new e12 Soft in some give away they were having. Be interesting to see how they go compared with the Srixon Q Star Tours I'm currently using. I also still have a couple of boxes of an older model Callaway Chrome Soft in the cupboard as well.

    Golf is, in part, a game; but only in part. It is also in part a religion, a fever, a vice, a mirage, a frenzy, a fear, an abscess, a joy, a thrill, a pest, a disease, an uplift, a brooding, a melancholy, a dream of yesterday and a hope for tomorrow. - New York Tribune, 1916.

    I played the Z-Star over the weekend and wasn't really impressed with it's durability. Will give the Z-Star XV a go though.

    Really? I've played 39 holes with a Z-Star XV without a blemish on the ball. If I hadn't dumped it into the ti tree it would still be going.

    I've got a dozen of them so I'll keep using them and get more feedback. I think the Z-Star is a bit softer than the XV and has a different skin altogether I believe.
