The big difference is the amount of spin you can put on the ball, and the feel between the two balls around the greens. My experience of using Noodles versus more expensive 3-piece balls has convinced me that a 3-piece ball can be worth a few strokes a round if you have the ability and need to play certain types of shots.Hangfire said:Most of my golfing buddies use Titleist Pro V1's, I use mid-priced Noodles, Callaways, and Mojo's. What makes the Pro V's worth the extra money, can you really tell that much of a difference???:smilie_ti
Yeah, that's my basic assessment. They are terrific balls which I've gotten to try thanks to someone being kind enough to gift me a dozen, but at nearly $45 a dozen, way too much money when if you keep an eye on things, you should be able to get a dozen 3-piece balls for under $30.ualtim said:Personally, I do not find the Pro V1's worth it as you can find other premium balls for less. Don't get me wrong, the Pro V1's are a great ball. I would use them if they did not cost so much, but I have found alternative balls that perfrom just as well for my particular game that are significantly cheaper to purchase.
The are probably no longer available and sold out, but the 3-Piece Maxfli Rev Tour for which the Black Max Replaced, was $11.99 at Sports Authority. I would opt for 4 dozen of them over 1 dozen Pro-V1's anyday. In all likelyhood at my home course, I would spend more on Golf Balls than I do on a round of golf on some days if I played Pro-V1's. Although I would probably consider using them if we still lived down where we use too. I rarely go through more than 1-2 balls at any other course.Ravenous Bugblatter Beast said:Yeah, that's my basic assessment.
