Locally I can get Vice Tours for $23.86 a dozen.   Multiply by 5 and a get sub total of $119.30.  In my area of North Carolina, state and local sales tax is 7% bringing the total cost to $127.65.  \n\nOn Vice's website I can order 5 dozen for a cost of $109.95.  Add in shipping to me for $6.99 and tax that Vice calculated at $8.18 and the total is $125.12.  Saving me $2.53.

I've been in the process of testing balls to be able to use one consistently. Been using the USGA certified ball list to compare spin ratings vs price of ball.\n\nI'm a high handicapper noob so I don't have big demands on performance. I prefer balls with medium or high wedge spin, mainly because I prefer to use my SW to pitch my balls around the green and have them roll a little to the hole rather than chip them with something lower lofted and have a bunch of roll out. It's just what I feel most natural visualing and executing and its the strongest part of my game, so I see no reason to change it. The higher wedge spin is also convenient for stopping power on the rare occasion I hit the green from 100 yards and out.\n\nMy favorite ball so far has been the Srixon Q Star, I also have a batch of mint used Q Star Tours to lose after my last few Q Stars find the woods. I am open to using used balls but still prefer to using that $20 new guideline since I've noticed its harder for used ball companies to keep good stock on balls that aren't as widely used as ProV1s or TP5s.\n\nOther balls I've tried or are on the test list include the MG C4 Tour.

Stumbled upon the Maxfli Trifli and while not cheap at $30, only $5 more than the Callaways. Played it yesterday and fell in love. Soft off the clubface, great sound off my driver. What really got me was the increase in distance. While I don't want to say because I need to play a few more times to confirm it, the increase was considerable. Like I drove one through the end of the fairway and into the drink which I have never gotten close to. And it stops pretty well. Not as well as a tour ball but good enough to be able to adjust for the 10 feet roll out. It seems to be so new it's not listed on Golf Galaxy's website yet, it is on Dicks.

My current gamer is the chrome soft, and while I'm absolutely in love with the ball, the cost is unreasonably steep for my small golf budget.

The vice balls are $25 a dozen at the bulk price while the cut balls are $17 at the bulk price. The vice balls are definitely better than their cut counterparts, but I don't think they're $8 a dozen better. I know every once in a while you can find the urethane top flites or maxflis for around $15 a dozen on sale, but you kind of have to be patient to find those prices which I am not.\n\nSo is anyone aware of any decent urethane golf balls that are cheaper than 17 dollars a dozen?

They're some of the best quality per dollar balls in the game in my opinion. \n\nAt $40/doz they're already a great value option.  But buying four dozen at a time takes them down to $30/doz, which is $2.50/BALL) - but that's a daunting purchase if you're not sure if you'll like them or not. \n\nSo here's a tip I just used when moving from the regular Tour ball to the Tour X, unsure if I'd like it enough to go all in: buy one dozen, play with them and see if you like them, and then if you decide you do you can go back to Dick's and buy three more dozen. As long as you bought the first dozen on your membership card they can look it up and add the other three dozen so you get the bulk discount on all four dozen.

Particularly felt the standing behind the ball and raising your hand towards the flag then using your fingers to determine how far outside the flag to aim was a bit awkward and takes too much time for someone not winning millions on the tour. Took a shot at 3d printing a prototype and played my first round with this and wow did it build my confidence on the greens.

Check out Mac O’Grady – the wild genius from the 80s/90s PGA Tour. Dude had one of the purest, most powerful swings out there (pure ball-striker legend), failed Q-School 17 times before earning his card, but his ball-striking was elite. Short game/putting kept wins low, but man, that motion…\n\nHis killer trick? Practicing and playing left-handed (opposite side) a ton. He got so good he was scratch-level lefty – there’s stories of him shooting 62 righty and 69 lefty in the same day. \n\nIn Golf Digest back in ‘87: He said used “ambidextrous training” – experimenting with new swing thoughts left-handed first, then bringing what worked to his righty game. Why? Swinging opposite forces perfect positions – no cheating, everything feels awkward, so it locks in real feel and symmetry. As one of his former students put it: “If you can’t swing lefty correctly, how are you gonna teach/fix someone else’s swing?”\n\nIt can be fun also, because remember the saying by , David Leadbetter “Takes about a hundred hours to groove a good move… but a thousand hours to unlearn a bad one.” It really alows you to feel like a true beginner.
