Best Value Golf Balls Of 2023 

Tried the zip golf ball after your review, absolutely love them ,my new golf ball.

Happy to see a new video! Hope the new job is going great!

Srixon soft feel are great

I have had good luck with the orange maxfli straightfli. Love the ball.

I really enjoyed using the Wilson Smartcore this year. Great value!

This was interesting and useful. Thank you.

Great video as always !! Thanks !

Would love to see the Wilson Chaos tested, which runs about $1 a ball for a 24-pack and can be had for even less when on sale. I've found a couple of these out on the course, put them into play, and was surprised at how well they performed for me.

I'm a 9hcp, 93 swing speed that has been playing the Maxfli Straightfli. These are the straightest balls I have ever hit to reduce the annoying fade or draw. Discovered these balls with your review on them.

Been waiting on these!!

I started playing the cut red after watching your review. My favorite ball by far

Fathers day sale, get the Encore Elixr, 3 dozen for $60. Great ball and super deal!

Some of us go to the two courses in my area, walk the course and pick up lost balls clean them up and give them to our buddies. Of course I keep my share of performance balls! Thanks

Did you do one on the wilson triad ball? I love that ball. Great video as always.

Buy in the off season. Ive found Wilson Staff Duo soft+ and Wilson Duo Optics for $13 and $14 a dozen but you have to be diligent looking. Rock Bottom Golf is off season good site.

I got a box of Nitros. Was expecting to lose them all by now, still have around 20 after a year. I only use them at one course that has a high probability of me losing balls. Nothing like having a forced carry with OB behind the green, or OB behind the green, or just forced carry. Sounds like a redesign is in order...lol The ones I play most are Srixon Soft Feel. I've got some Volvik Vivid, which is like hitting a chunk of ice and 2 boxes of Bridgestone X (red). I have a few TayloMade stripes for putting practice.

Purchase? I haven't bought a golf ball in over 50 years! I find so many and I've been given some on the high school golf team and in scramble tournaments!

Been about 20 years since I last played as a kid and picked up the game again this past year. Bought a hodge podge of used balls to see what I liked, always noticed I wasn’t losing Wilsons at the same rate as the “best” brands. Didn’t know if it was just a placebo effect like trying to not f*ck up w the “good balls” (Titleist, Callaway, etc) or if the Wilsons were actually legit. Thought I was crazy for noticing till I saw the Todays Golfer robot video and your reviews. Thanks for confirming bro

Would love to you get and review some Seed balls. They are an Irish company running between $29-$34 a dozen depending on amount you buy. I saw a club champion video where they had Max Boucher hitting them and there was minimal difference with Pro V1s. I finally ordered some and I have a local simulator place with a Trackman. I have seen no difference in my numbers from Chrome Softs to the Seeds (other than the price)

Well done! I need this vid LOL Why no Bridgestone E6 on the list? I like them, they are my fav...

I'm still a big fan of the Vice Pro as it appeared to me a very consistent ball. But for a cheaper ball the zip was not far off. I've mentioned before, have you tried the Piper balls which they recommend fit based on handicap? Which does not make sense as you could be a 20handicap and have a 110mph swing speed. I tried the Blue(sub $30 3piece) and they worked great for me on course versus a pricier Callaway. I literally watched the ball straighten in the air.

I love my Kirklands.

Sam’s had the Vice Pro this weekend for $39.98 a 2 dozen pack!!!

Maxfli StraightFli... $15/dozen. Slightly harder than a Callaway, slightly softer than a ProV1. More roll than spin, so good tee balls, but they still work around the greens. You just can't beat them for the price.

Another ball to try is the Chaos. I believe it is a Wilson product but seems to be a good 2 piece ball at a cheap price.

Miss when Freddie was bombing the Maxfli Revolution back in the 90s😢 that was my favorite golf ball in high school, but too expensive 😅

I had the Srixon soft feel as number 1.

9:28 if Taylor made put the stripe, they use on the tour response on the soft response ball it would triple their sales I think. It is a great ball

If precept put a little work into there, logo or and brand marketing, they could be a top ball, but they are basically what Pinnacle is to Titleist as they are made by Bridgestone or vice versa

Looks like the Cut site is fully stocked and operating. Also, have you tried the Legato balls? Thanks and best of luck in the new job

I purchased 2 boxes of Cut Red off Amazon based primarily on your review. 2 balls literally cracked in half while I was playing them -- brand new, out of the box, not even a whole round with either one. CUT agreed to send me another box of balls (Gray, this time). But I don't have a lot of confidence in the brand or the product.

Gotta try the Spalding tour. Cheap, durable and feels great.

Anytime I can save money on equipment that can go to greens fees or lessons. But I still like good stuff.

OnCore elixr and VERO 1x!!!! These are the best value balls I use!!

Have you tried the HONMA TW-S and TW-X balls? Three piece golf balls. One ionomeer the other urethane, marketed at 85mph driver speed and 95mph+ driver speed.

I am a 75 year old +1 handicap with a driver speed of around 97 Mph and I play the Maxfli Tour X golf ball. I did some very thorough testing against the Titleist Pro V1 and couldn’t find any difference (except the price).

Would be interested in comparative distances off the tee for the value balls. The big golf ball testers focus on the tour-level balls and most amateurs play the value balls. I'd switch if I could get a few yards more from another ball that tested better.

I have played the Cut Red some and found its performance to be good. It’s cover durability I found to be excellent which is interesting as the Cut Blue and Cut Grey cover durability is very poor. Then, I too had a Cut Red cover actually crack on me. When I noticed the first crack, I also noticed the second crack on the same ball. I never noticed a crack on other Cut Reds, but it might be possible to overlook these cracks if you do not check your ball over carefully on the green or the next tee. The cracks were about an inch long and about twice the width of a human hair. I could definitely see, feel, and get the tip of a fingernail into it a bit. Disappointing, but not a deal breaker if it only happens to say, one ball out of a couple dozen? Hopefully Cut corrects this, but they have never corrected the awful cover durability on the Blue and Grey and that’s been the case for probably four years or more. Nick, check over your Cut Red at every tee. I don’t hit it that hard and I cracked one in two places and I can only reach the shortest par fives in two once in a while, so I am not a powerful golfer.

Vice pro are $39 for TWO dozen at Sam's Club. I've stocked up.

MAXFLI TRIFLI. I like it better than the tour line or the softfli/straightfli

The Srixon Z Star 24 pack for $64.99 is a great deal.

I really like the new speedsoft by taylormade...I like the TP5 but just can't see the value and get great results for the speedsoft at half the price at 24 per dozen.

Kirkland Golf Balls are Top 3 Value Golf Balls.. Get 24 Balls for $27.95 at Costco. Very close to the fell of ProV1.

I think the Spalding SD Tour and Tour X needs more love. Cheap 3 piece balls that have helped improve my game a lot.

Keeping in the theme of budget, id love to see you review some recycled premium golf balls. This is what i usually do to save money. Kinda curious to see those results.

Which performs better, Cut Red vs. Maxfli Straightfli vs Kirkland?

Surprised you haven’t tried encore elixir $30 a dozen direct to consumer three-piece urethane cover great golf ball.

I'm just about to start my 3rd year so about to change from second chance balls as I'm losing alot less balls. Thanks to Graeme at lanark golf course for that in his lesson. What do you recommend for a faster swing

where does kirklands fit into this list? i get them from my costco for 27.99 24ct

Needed: PV1 spin/drop and stop/wedge check/distance off the tee…..for $20. Played the Cut Blue, but it did exactly what they say: it cut, scarred, and was otherwise ruined within 3 holes. Kirkland: highly overrated and 10-15 yards shorter off the tee than PV1.

What are your thoughts on second hand ball websites? Any value there?

I have a vendor that gives me Pro-V1xs. You can't beat free, but I know it isn't the best ball for me. I play them anyway most of the time. I only use maybe 3 per round, so i have like 5 dozen piled up. I should sell them and buy a more appropriate ball for an old guy like me.

I typically just shoot whatever I find, and hopefully I find more than I lose. Recently, my stockpile has shrunk to only a few left, so I found on Amazon 75 Kirkland Signature (recovered), which is basically just pond balls cleaned up, for $25. Here' my thing. Let's say I go out and shoot some bargain ball ball and shoot 100. If I had a Pro-V1 instead of the bargain ball, can I expect less strokes, and how many? I'm not convinced that spending $3 a ball will get me under 100. Maybe a pro can take advantage of the performance of a nice ball, but I know I can't. Was it the ball's fault I 3 putted? Was it the ball's fault I shanked one off the tee box and had to hit a provisional? I'm losing strokes because I still blow my swing like I just learned to play yesterday. Until I can hit more consistently, the last thing I am spending any serious money on is balls. These Kirklands are going to be just fine for me, I'm sure.

The cost of the maxfli tour now is 4dz for 109, 25 dz. Bought 8 dz

A Pro V 1 test may help bring in a new audience for you.

How about the cut orange?

👍

If you take a pinnacle rush and put a titliest label on it, suddenly the ball become fantastic. If take a pinnacle core and put a urethane cover around it,, man we can sell for $7 per ball..

just curious........do you maintain a handicap?

right now in Canada the Precept Laddie is 25.97 for 2 dozen ( Canadian ) 19.00 ( USD ) great springtime ball and late fall WILSON ZIP ? really ? interesting cheers all

Aren’t Molitors cheaper (and worse) than Top Flites?

2 balls I’m interested to see if or if you would review are the Titleist TruFeel and the TM Distance

Wilson Zip?

4:28 the beef you have against Maxfli is a little weird, because every single product on the planet has increased in price.

"except for Nitro, I don't consider them a golf ball" 😂

Cut golf balls are brutal. I bought cut blue and they shredded after 3 wedges. Horrible. Pretty disappointed you are recommending those.

I guess Sugar Ball didn’t make this year😢

I'm disappointed to see that you list Cut Red to be the #1 ball. Not sure whether you have actually played it. I had the worst experience with Cut red. 4 balls out of one box cracked on impact (my club head speed is 90 - 95 mph). Quality is just unacceptable. I have never seen any other golf ball crack like this, and of course, I swear I will never play the Cut balls even if they are given to me for free.

I thought Laddie was male and Lassie or Lass was female

FYI...'Laddie" is a boy. "Lassie" is a girl.

Laddie is a male - lassie is a female!!!!!
