Vokey Spin Milled

They are ripping my balls to shreds.I had 6 shots under 80 today an each one ripped the ball,one actually left white on the face! The ball was in tatters by the end.I am sure that pros will need to change balls after each 40+ shot.They stop the ball dead,but at a price.

I know the feeling!! My Clevelands rip the ball too.
The range I practice at uses Srixon Range Balls.
I am always picking white lines out of the grooves.
Its not so nice when your going through 1 or 2 ProV1s a round though!!
Still, it is a nice feeling when you check one up from 60-100 yards.

Nothing worse than having your balls ripped to shreds. A friend of mine got divorced and had the same thing happen.

I keep the important balls well away from anyone's clubs, but I have noticed that my Hogan Edge CFTs like to gnaw away at my Titlelists. The hybrids in the set don't seem to be as bad as the conventional irons.

dave, do you find that the face gets dinged up on them pretty easily? I've heard that about the SM wedges....due to the supreme softness of the face...?

Yes I do,but only from the sand.It seems the tiny milling can get dented when hitting larger grit fron sand.Thats what I have found anyway
