FWIW I've never paid for a golf ball... living adjacent to a golf course had its perks
It's bad luck to use a golfball you find or scavange out of the water.

That could explain why my life has generally sucked.


My mom's old house was next to the tee box for #2 of the local municipal course. My brother and I retrieved balls from the lake along 7, 8, and 9, as well as the ponds/streams near 3, 4 and 5. Very few people could drive the stream that crossed 1 (who puts a stream at 285 yards on a city course?) and 2 was an easy clear (180 from the white tee), 6 was a dry par 3. The back 9 had very little water in play (lots of trees though ). We'd sell anything we could match 6 or 12 of (we used old egg cartons) by #2; everything else we used to play. The balls we retrieved when I was 10-13 lasted me until I quit.

Most recently I've been using Titleist NXTs which I really like. I always hated the DT or HVC.

I thought you wanted forgiving.

I was thinking MP-30 or MX-23. I don't like the oversive MX-17

Lesson learned:

When playing with 3 women you just met, never pull out a pink ball at the first tee.
