Slazenger Money - Golf Balls

A golf ball takes between 100 and 1000 years to decompose. If a golf ball is not old and battered through play, it will be fine!!! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/earthnews/6540852/Golf-balls-take-1000-years-to-decompose.html

I just went on the Wilson website (7/6/2010) and Wilson says that even stored well tour typical golf ball will start to deteriorate (less bounce) after 2 years.

When golf balls sit around for a while, they start to feel lonely and feel neglected and ignored. So be sure to comfort them and take them to conseuling before you use them. Golf, Ball

I think that golfballs don't really have a shelflife. I have some really old callaways lying around i could still easily playthem

Golf balls certainly do have a shelf life. Ever been to the driving range, and no matter what club you hit, 4 iron to wedge, they all seem to travel the same distance? I play to a 10.3 index and hit 5 irons on average about 225yds. I hit range balls and I'm lucky to get 175 to 180 out of them. Same with a pitching wedge. Normally with Pro V1's, I have a range of 140 to 150, at the range, lucky to get 100 yds. out of them. Bottom line to your answer is, call UCAL Berkley or MIT to get the

Comparing golf balls in a controlled climate - on a shelf in a closet - to balls at a driving range is ridiculous! Range balls are hit hundreds (if not thousands) of times, run thru a cleaning machine and hit again. They are likely to be hit off of various equipment, run over by mowers, etc. The comparisaon you make is foolish!

I'm guessing Jake could very well be at a range with Limited Flight (LF) range balls. To that end, Keith is spot on. Range balls take a beating that no other golf ball on earth will take through its lifetime. Not only that, but range balls are typically stored...wait for it...in UNcontrolled environment

there are a ton of like polish everywhere

for you to hit a 5 iron 225 on average you must be playing on a parking lot, what a joke or jerk

...as for Jake (or Joke whatever)! if you don't already know this -you cant get accurate reading of distance when ball is in the woods!! Omg, 225 average? REALLY?!? Seriously, the well kept ball should be fine to play with. If you have that great of a concern with them, then dont use them during a tournament, but for recreation only

Are not range balls manufactured differently for the extra abuse they receive? I factor in the difference from 'range distance' to 'course distance.' My course distance will a 'normal' ball is always about 10-30 yards better than the 'range rocks'. For fun, take a range ball onto course and compare. At PGA events, the range balls are new Titleists to match the course balls the pros may use. Pros switch out balls after they go 'out-of-round' which is determined by a Acu-Check tool. I think the

I love Jake. Bubba Watson hits a 5 iron 225. Maybe Gary Woodland. No one else. He forgot to check his math too. But his standard, his wedge should go 170. I think his 5 iron actually says "Driver" on the bottom. I was a plus 2 and I played mini-tours for a while. Golden State, etc. None of those guys hit 5-iron that far, much less a 10 handicap. I don't know if he's hitting limited flight golf balls, but he's definitely a limited intelligence player. Maybe he's Canadian and plays on a

OMG!! Jake sounds like 80% of the members on GolfGWX....maybe they should just give everyone the screen name Jake0001, Jake0002 and so on and so on.... LOL!!! 5-Iron 225 yrds, REALLY!!

Golf balls stored in a controlled climate, (not outside in the elements, not stored in a 100 degree temperature,)will lose ONE YARD per year. That means, obviously, if you store your golf balls for ten years they will lose only ten yards of carry. Most of us could never tell the difference until it reaches that ten year mark.

Michael, Where did you get the info on the yardage lost per year? I am curious as to how you arrived at this...

The Bridgestone E6+ has a urethane cover. Check it out.

The e5 has the urethane cover not the e6.

Go to USGA.org and check on golf balls. Every week they post conforming balls that are legal to play by USGA Rules. There you can get what the cover material is and how many layers make up the golf ball

Thank you for your question. A Logo Overrun is a New golf ball that has a company logo or personalization on it already. Logo Overruns have some of the best deals that you can find on golf balls period. Please let me know if I may be of any other assistance. Play Well, Johnny

Thank you for your question. This is a perfect question for a company that started out selling used golf balls! Really there is only one down side; the length of time the ball spent in the water. If it's one that has been in the water for months then it stands a much better chance to become "out of round" so that the performance of the golf ball is compromised. This is rare due to the fact that used golf ball retriever is a big time business and ponds/lakes have balls fished out of them

Thank you for your question. It's nothing more than a simple number system developed in case golfers in the same group are using the same golf ball. This way those golfer could use different numbered golf balls and be able to identify their golf ball easily. I hope this helps. Thanks, Johnny

Mike, thank you for your inquiry. Moderate club head speeds are closer to the 85-90 MPH speed zone. Anything 100+ would be considered high. Thanks. Andy

Where have you been, or did you have to see in print.

Thank you for your question Eddy. If you store golf balls in a climate controlled environment there really is an unlimited shelf life. At least this is what I'm told after speaking with a few major brands who make golf balls. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you, Johnny

im scared they whant to f*** me up plus i toatal chowed up some of there divices earlyer they think im noiding out if i start doing normal tweek stuff i will look more normal to them

Nick, Thanks for your question. Right now we can not pull that one off. Our machine is specifically set up for 3 or less. Anything more falls outside of our printing parameter and you wouldn't see the whole line. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks, Johnny

Thank you for your question. This is not a problem at all. The charge for what's called a "two-pole" print would be an extra $5 on top of the personalized ball price. You would need to call us to place this order as this would be a custom order. You may reach us at 1-800-372-2557. Play Well, Johnny

Mr. Mazzone, Thank you for your question. Where is the value? 1) Not spending the gas to go to the store to purchase golf balls 2) You are not charged sales tax on your order which to purchase locally would push you over the $44 threshold. 3) Convenience - 24 hour shopping I hope you would view these as a few reasons to consider purchasing online vs. purchasing at a retail store. Please let me know if you have any other questions or if I may be of any other service. Sincerely,

Absolutely, You will need to add the Pro V1 - Personalized four different times on your order to be able to personalize each dozen individually. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks, Johnny

Thank you for your question. You may certainly request this. During checkout there is a space to add "additional comments." Please make your request there. But also please note that the being able to enlarge your personalization is based upon 1) there being a limited amount of text that you want on the ball 2) knowing that we have a limited amount of space to print on. If you max out all three lines with text then we would have no room to grow, so to speak. I hope this helps and pleas

Jim, Thanks for your question. Golf Ball Manufacturer aren't required to put a compression on a golf ball and many of them don't want to be segmented by giving that information. In regards to dimple designs there are multiple dimple designs on golf balls and there is also not set number as to how many dimples a golf ball will have. It varies on every golf ball. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Play Well, Jjohnny

Thank you for your question. Storing golf balls at room temp in your house is ideal. In regards to storing golf balls in cold temperatures or hot temps for that matter, temperature will eventually have an effect on a golf ball but only after a long period of time. Moral of the story, try not to store golf balls in your trunk! I'm guilty of that one! Please let me know if you have any other questions. Play Well, Johnny

Regarding the storage of golf balls room temperature is fine. If you are playing in conditions below 50 degrees. I recommend that you use a lower compression ball: Wilson Staff Zip/50, Srixon Soft Feel or perhaps even a woman's ball. In harsh/cold conditions a lower compression ball will compress easier -- thus hoefully giving better control. Also, on the way to the course, I keep a few balls by the floor heater to keep them warm. When on the course keep a few in your pants pocket so your b

Thank you for your comments, and you're right it certainly does feel that way. I can't tell you how many calls or emails we receive stating that just when you get used to playing a certain ball they change it! It's enough to drive your crazy! For a golf ball manufacturer it's about doing their best to keep their product relevant and fresh. That is why their product gets tweaked every 1-2 years. While I feel your pain I don't think there is anything we can do about it! Please let me kno

They are always playing around with the balls. Why do they play with the balls-don't they undestand that you should not play wiht the balls you only get them excited Stop playing aroudn wiht the balls You can hurt the balls
