    Yes I was surprised as well, one of those rare swings where everything just came together.

    I play them almost every time I play and they're fine. I'm not going on tour any time soon so they work and if I put one in the lake, I'm not going broke.

      I would definitely recommend trying a few other two piece models. You can still save great money but you won't have to sacrifice performance.

    Hey sir! Congrats on improving your swing speed and congrats on your new gear. Looks like things are looking up! Thank you for the review as well. I have never had the desire to try the warbird and now it'll definitely stay that way.

    I find a lot of these on the two courses near my home! I hit them at the range to see what they can do! They remind me of a range ball. Thanks for the review.

    • @GolfBallAddict

      Honestly if these were range balls somewhere I probably just wouldn't use the range LOL

    Interesting. (60 yr old / 12 handicap / golfing 2 years) I found two of these and gave them a try and really liked it. My average driver swing speed is 96mph. The first three practice drives I hit went 245, 247, and 251 total distance, had almost too much height and were all fairly straight. I usually average 215 using a Srixon Soft Feel. I went ahead and used them in my weekly scramble league and had the same results with my driver. I had both good distance and a higher trajectory with my mid-irons as well. Being a scramble league I switch (legal by our local rules) to Pro-V1 for anything

    • @zwaager
      @zwaager 7 днів тому

      @mikeburch8467 they don't spin well but they're incredible for distance! By far the longest ball I've ever hit. I find the srixon soft feel similar to Kirkland in that it loses a ton of distance. Maybe I just overcompress it. But it's kind of like hitting a pillow as far as feel. Same with the Q star. 🤷

    • @GolfBallAddict

      They do seem to work for some people. I just didn't have that good of results.

  • @ludblight
    @ludblight 3 місяці тому +1

    Interesting results. I'm a high handicap and a slower swing speed and these are the balls I used most last year. For me, they help with the distance but putting leaves something to be desired. Putting is when I notice the firm feel.
    On another note, thanks to your review, I'm trying out the Wilson Staff Zip golf balls. Those are nice!

      Agreed. I don't see any way they could be part of my game. Even in a scramble if I'm hiting over water.

      ​@GolfBallAddict I actually love these balls off the tee. They absolutely fly and sound incredible off my driver. Using a Nike Ignite 460. I get a huge amount more distance with these than any other ball. Don't like them around the green tho. Prefer a soft ball. TP5 is my top choice.

    • @zwaager
      @zwaager 7 днів тому

      @saltysteel3996 amazing for distance. Best out there imo. But horrible for spin. Luckily I hit a very high ball so it'll still stick but not when chipping or shorter pitch shots. Thoroughly enjoying the Bridgestone Tour B XS lately. Seems to be pretty similar distance to the Warbird (not quite as long) but has way better control in every aspect. And super consistent.

  • @starks1974
    @starks1974 3 місяці тому +2

    I have never thought of buying a Warbird and your analysis proved my assumption. And it's odd that it's marketed for high handicappers that would not swing that fast. Maybe the ball should be called Oxymoron.
    And can't wait for Vice week and Snell!!!!

    • @GolfBallAddict
      @GolfBallAddict  3 місяці тому +1

  • @bobwehner7881
    @bobwehner7881 Місяць тому +2

    I'm flummoxed by your review. I'm 74, a 20 handicapper, and I really like the Warbird. My swing speed (with driver), might be 90 on a good day. Distances are slightly better for all clubs, as compared to other balls, and all are hit high. I didn't notice anything either way around the greens. Our mentalities must be completely opposite since I also like 3 of your 5 most overrated balls. :)

    • @GolfBallAddict
      @GolfBallAddict  Місяць тому +1

      LOL Fair enough. I always tell my subscribers all the time, that every golf ball will perform differently for everybody in some way. We've all got different clubs, swing styles, etc.

    • @GolfBallAddict
      @GolfBallAddict  3 місяці тому +1

      There's a better way to give feedback. A lot of golf balls that are medium to firm compression offer a nice firm press and click when you hit it well. This is straight up rockish. But I agree I love having feedback

      That's the problem with not marketing your call correctly. If I was Callaway I'm specifically putting on the box that is for fast swingers. Otherwise you have a bunch of people play them out of the woods and just think they're terrible. I wish some companies would be more transparent
