I was given 3 boxes of these for helping some chick in my neighborhood with her computer. I wasn't really even going to play these because I knew they weren't really that expensive so I just figured they wouldn't hit very well. Anyway I took them out on the course a few days ago and I was pretty surprised by the distance I was getting not as long as my Callaway Wrabirds or my Top Flite XL3000 Super Longs, but good enough to keep me happy. I was kind of surprised that I could putt these pretty good and was able to make 3 birdies in a row and kept my score at a respectable +10 on a par 72 course. I probably won't buy anymore of these when I run out but for a beginner looking for an inexpensive good ball I would recommend these.

I love this ball! It's supposed to work to keep your ball long and straight. Well, I would say that it's just average as far as distance goes, but I have never hit the ball straighter! In fact, I stumbled onto this site while I was trying to find somewhere to buy more of them. If you don't mind giving up a little distance to hit a straighter ball, then buy these.

I definitely agree with some of the previous reviewers - the ball hits like a rock and I found it was quite difficult to generate any spin. However it was fairly cheap @ US$8.50 a doz. I was actually given to me as a gift. Much prefer a softer ball.

Surprisingly equal in performance to some other more expensive distance balls. Great value.

I found this ball not particularly long, which is odd because it feels like a rock when you hit it, which usually indicates a long ball. Just doesn't feel like it compresses at all. I think it is a bit straighter than a normal ball. Spins OK for a ball of this type, which is to say not too much. Also seemed to scuff more than you would expect from a ball of this type. Summary: OK for a real cheap ball, but if this is all I can afford in the future I'll buy "reloads."

Ball has great feel and distance for a very affordable price. You can pick up 15 balls at Sports Authority for $10...great bargain.
