Titleist NXT tour golf balls

Advantages: Soft, feel, distance
Disadvantages: A bit pricey

...Having taken up golf in the last year i've lost (and found) alot of golf balls on the local fairways as you might expect, most of these balls are then hit and lost again for someone else to find and so the cycle continues. That was at least until i slowly showed signs of improvement and treated myself to a sleeve (pack of 3) of Titleist NXT tour golf balls from my local pro shop for £4.99, i must admit i wasnt keen to part with almost a fiver for 3 golf balls but you know the way it is... better equipment will make me a better player right? well funnily enough it may have helped a little. So what is so special about the NXT tour series of ball? Well, firstly its round (which helps) so nothing special there then, its when you first tee one up and hit it - that's when you know you've just hit a great ball, when you manage to tee...

Titleist Pro V1X

Advantages: Great name in golf balls
Disadvantages: Not really for high handicappers

...I'm not really into the science of golf balls, all I know is that there are good balls and not so good balls. I wouldn't play with golf balls that cost 20p per ball such as Donnay because they don't feel nice to hit and yes on the golf course you just don't use Donnay to play low rounds and in tourneys. I tried a titleist Pro V1X today in a Stableford tourney off white tees so I had a little extra yardage to play, I mostly use Titleist PTS Solo because they are designed for mid to high handicappers, and I can hit them, so they work for me. Titleist have brought out this new breed of ball, and as i said I don't know the science so i'm not going to say there is this and there is that, etc. All i know is that these balls are designed to cut out spin, have a lower flight and create more distance, however, I never saw any of that. To me...

Titleist DCI 962

Advantages: Great Value at under £500
Disadvantages: Not for high handicappers

...I have been the proud owner of a set of Titleist DCI 962s for two years now. Having been advised by a friend that these were the best clubs on the market I now believe this to be true. The DCI 962 is a superb set of clubs designed for the mid to low handicapped golfer. The clubs are based on the bladed clubs of yesteryear accompanied by the modern perimeter weighted clubs of today. Each club, from the three iron to the sand wedge, is a wonderfully crafted club for the serious golfer. These clubs have helped me to reduce my handicap by a couple of strokes. I bought the clubs with a handicap of 11. Soon after using them to good effect I won two club competitions back to back and got my handicap down to single figures. This must be partially due to the wonderful set I use. The sweet spot is not as large as it’s...

Titleist Pro V1 - the best ball yet

Advantages: great feel and distance
Disadvantages: cost

...I have been playing golf for 15 years and always play with a Titleist ball. It's something of a habit, but the ball suits my game. In cold wet conditions I'll play with the pts wound ball, and in dry summer conditions the professional balata. That was until I tried the newest product from Titleist, the pro V1. It is the tour professionals choice of ball combining both distance and feel.It is longer off the tee than the balata ball but gets enormous spin around the green. I'm not sure how Titleist have done it, but I was amazed at the extra length I got off the tee and the control and spin I got around the green. Putting with it is a dream, the ball doesn't fly off the putter like the wound ball. At the moment the cost of the ball will put off all but the most accomplished golfer, at £35 a dozen you don't really want to 'lose' a ball...

Titleist DCI 962's

Advantages: Nice feel, good ball flight
Disadvantages: not for the high handicapper

...I have been the owner of a set of Titleist 962s for about a year and a half and have to say that I am nothing but impressed by them. Being a 9 handicapper at the time I was after a set of clubs that would allow me to hit a variety of shots but also was not keen on having to use blades to achieve this. The 962s are definately worth spending £500 on if you are serious about spending this sort of money. They have a very nice look and look good behind the ball - they are smaller in size than say a wilson iron but not as small as a blade so you do not worry about mishitting it! The produce a quite a low ball flight and are very easy to move both left to right and right to left. In conclusion I would say that these clubs are perfect for someone who is a low handicapper who is not looking for blades. Very highly recommended indeed....

Nikon Coolpix 775

Advantages: It's small, attractive and takes great photos!
Disadvantages: None that I've found so far.

...I won this camera in a prize draw and although I already had a digital camera, when I opened the box and had a look at this one I was delighted. The old Ricoh RDC-6000 I have looks so drab compared to this nifty little Nikon. The two are similar in that they have a resolution of 2.1 mp's, but the 775 has the added bonus of the optical zoom (x3)lens. I've seen it on sale in the shops from £280-300, so it has fairly typical specifications for that price range. The one thing missing in the box is any kind of case for the camera, and the soft leather one I bought cost about £12. It was easy to set up using the included Quick start guide which comes in poster form, and I was taking my first pictures as soon as the battery had charged up ... only an hour or so later. Transferring the images to the computer is very simple using either...

TITLEIST 975D DRIVER

Advantages: eliminates high right
Disadvantages: costy

...Having suffered for the last couple of years with the classic "big-right" shot and having put the pro through many strenous unsuccessful lessons i decided that having spent as much on lessons as a new top of the range club would cost i decided that now was to fork out the price of these lessons again and to buy a new driver to try to eliminate this ever growing problem preventing me from decreasing to the single figures which i knew i deserved. naturally when i was looking in the market i was drawn in by the titleist 975D driver as its promise to eliminate thew "high right" shot from your game. Naturally when i first found out that it had not eliminate it from my game i was very dissapointed and was on the edge of giving the game up. However my pro said that i should stick at it and amazingly within a few rounds my slice became...

Cheeter Line Ball

Advantages: More ball for less
Disadvantages: Durabillity

...Titleist makes the best golf balls, and has proven them selfs on the pro tour for many years. This is a Titleist budget ball with almost the same performance and feel as the more expensive brother the Pro V1. The Cheeter line is very helpfull, for somone that struggles to line up his putts and can even be used to line up the driver giving you better acurisy ultimitly saving you shots on a round. Launches good from the club face and has good controll arrount the greens, nice soft feel on irons giving you the confidence of a tour player. I woeld recomend this ball for the mid handicapper looking for a better ball but does not whant to pay the full price for the Pro V1 range....
