    Have you played this ball? 🤔🏌️‍♂️

    My wife typically plays the Supersoft and shoots around 105-110 on average. I bought some of the Chromesoft off the Good Good site for my son-in-law for Christmas, and she wanted to try a box because she liked the logos all around the ball (she chooses her ball based on looks 😂). Lo and behold, she shot her best round ever on Saturday with a 92. She’s convinced it was the ball and not the fact that she wasn’t chunking her shots all over the golf course. I guess we’ll give it some time 😉

    Thank you for the confirmation. I was playing Supersoft and changed to the Titleist Pro V1X left dash, to improve dispersion rate. I am sure it has taken a stroke or two off of my score. When you hit it straight, it should go straight.

    Callaway had this problem 3 or 4 years ago. They spent so much money to improve quality control. Looks like bad habits are creeping back.

    Supersofts are not part of the balls that use "precision technology", thats only on their chrome line.

    Mygolfspy revealed that Callaway's Chrome Soft had off center cores about 4 years ago. Callaway says it spent 25 million dollars to re-tool their ball plant and eliminated the inner core of their golf balls and went to multi-layer covers like Titleist. I do believe that you have stated in prior videos that you cut open found golf balls. If that is true in this case, the ball you cut open may be the old version.

    Salty balls time! I keep a sealed tuba wear box with enough espon bath salts to float a ball, mark the most raised floated with a sharpee. The repeat 2-3 times. A poor gravity ball show the same highest point. A good ball with have random stops so the core isn't bais.
    Don't scrap the off core ball either, just make sure you hit the ball with off core being the driection of the shot. At 2000-10,000 rpm makes no difference. Just a void that side for side spin! Then your shots are dead wim problem fee.
    Only 1in 10 balls a true centered gravity too! From ProVs to Slazanger V100s.
