Its because range balls fly straighter and further.

and you are probably relaxing in your shot a lot more. Sometimes your mind gets the best of you on the course.


And skuter, nice round

Trying to get off this ship and head to LSU

I would think range balls had reduced distance due to worn dimples.

And you're right Nico, if i can get over that I would be a lot more accurate on approach shots and would spray less off the tee.

Yeah I was joking about range balls. At the range, you usually think to slow down the backswing and not swing so hard. And I have the same problem, as do a lot of amateur golfers.

Not for me. Looks distracting. I don't see how Bubba swings a pink one.

I saw someone using the pink Bubba driver at the range earlier this week. It was a female college golfer.

The guy at the counter said they were going for 600-650 on eBay

So that's the key to control, eh?

Seems like when I try to kill the ball I get the same distance just hooks show up.

Is it really that simple?

Grey callaway but gone now. Course was in nice shape. There are some holes that need some trees removed to get greens better but I like the course and played pretty well
