Could have been Titleist, but I was thinking he might've played Maxfli in his prime.

Who is most famous pro who played Maxfli?

The HT Balata was abetter ball,than Titleist until the Earthquake in Kobe Japan in 1995destroyed the plant they were they were made. It also coincided with the Titleist proffesional balls release.

I liked to cut the balatas open and slowly cut the rubber bands.

Also, Ray Floyd kissed his son on the lips.

Those wound Titleist balls were a trip. You could hit a sweet shot down the middle. Get up there and it's got a happy face.
