NEW BUDGET GOLF BALL... LONGER THAN A PRO V1!?

[@Drewstorm]

I played my entire junior career with Top Flite XL 2000 or 3000. Used to love them and the Maxfli Revolution!

[@thegolfingmusician6345]

Best 2 piece ball I’ve ever used is the Wilson Duosoft+. Shot a 73 and 74 with it last week. Feel is amazing. You really should test it.

[@davidgilbert8256]

Nice thanks I've been looking at buying them

[@pondbossbaits4579]

Hands down the best in my opinion too.

[@roncarlton1882]

I recently played a round with the Top Flight Bomb balls. Wow I was actually amazed at some of the driver distances achieved. I have a few boxes that were given as gifts. So I plan to use them for awhile.

[@Cademeyer2034]

James, I am one of the Golf Techs at the Dicks Sporting Goods here in Florida. While here in America you should pick up some Cut Blue Balls from a Walmart and test them out. They are super soft for a $20 A dozen Ball. Always found them to work very well around the green for me. Keep up the content love seeing the videos. Y’all need to come play some panhandle golf!

[@thegolfingmusician6345]

Went through a box of these and they shredded off my wedges like no other ball I’ve ever played. I guess there’s a reason they need them “Cut”. My go to ‘cheap’ ball is the Wilson Duosoft. Shot a 73 and 74 last week with them.

[@billlount2489]

“ hopefully you can battle through it “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Gotta love Chris.

[@scottdresen4940]

While he was at Dick's Sporting Goods he should have picked up the Maxfli Tour golf balls for $60 for 2 dozen & tested them against the Pro V1...I think they are very comparable.

[@richardb2526]

Agree, been hoping for a test of the MaxFli Tour X. Tough for them since it is Dicks personal brand.

[@rushfanjames2112]

I always play 2 piece golf balls. I like the clickiness feel off the putter, and the distance. The trick is finding the right feeling ones.

[@shawntaylor7442]

I would have went with the Maxfli Tour X balls at Dicks or Golf Galaxy. 4 piece with Urethane cover. Usually around $25-30 a dozen. Great balls. Best kept secret in golf right now

[@kevinwood1722]

Been playing Maxfli for many years now and I love the tours especially since they’re $20 cheaper than ProV1s. They work for my skill level and MGS tests have their consistency levels just right behind Titleist. I always scoop up a bunch when they’re on sale.

[@richardb2526]

Really liked the MaxFli Tour X when I tried it. Might be my normal ball. Want to test it against the Bridgestone e12, which I've only played once but really hit it well.

[@James_Vaughn]

Funnily enough, I just picked up some of these and played with them this past Wednesday. They are long, due to the low spin I'm guessing. I had to readjust my clubbing because the first couple approach shots went over. I was comfortably hitting a club less, and did hit some real 'bombs' off the tee as well. I also hit a couple of very low spin knuckles, which fell out of the air, but did run quite a bit. All in all, not a terrible ball, would be great for scrambles, and even for general play, it didn't really affect my score any, once I adjusted to the distance, and the extra roll out.

[@jimmahT]

Love listening to both of you taking 'Balls' ;)

[@danielcohen3159]

This was a fun video, James and Chris! The Bomb is a true Top Flite: low spin and hard feel and designed to be hit with one club and one club only. But there are also several lower compression models - and there have been for a very long time (for all y'all saying all Top Flites are rocks). The D2+Feel was really a good all-around ball. None of them is going to give the short game spin that the average golfer THINKS he needs. But every single one of them will provide the short game spin that he ACTUALLY needs.

[@hunter_kelley2366]

I started using them last year and they are the only thing I use now great deal for a decent ball

[@joncuprak7050]

I was given a couple sleeves of these during a local scramble tournament. The color of the balls were interesting, one was like a translucent blue and the other was a translucent orange. They feel like hitting rocks. Fun to bring out when just having a fun day with the boys though.

[@doonaree999]

Played with Top Flite in the 1990's but now prefer feel rather than distance. Changed when I purchased a set of forged clubs and never went back. Callaway Supersoft is the ball of choice for me.

[@MrMatthew262]

I bought some and thought they’d be a novelty for just off the tee but found I played pretty decent with them all around, even on the greens. They didn’t feel too bad either.

[@travisd1288]

From N Carolina.. found a blue BOMB and have played three rounds with it... Straight and long..may be worth the trade off for feel.

[@jjwong3]

Next time one of you guys go to Dicks, consider purchasing/testing out a Maxfli Tour and Maxfli Tour X. It’s Dicks ProV1 and ProV1x competitor with a urethane cover and all. Great ball and isn’t too expensive. Its around 2 pounds each ball though.

[@RydenEden]

yeah I work at Golf Galaxy... the top flite bombs are hard has rocks... they hit really long but anything other than drives it really doesnt work out

[@mikereed3287]

Every Top Flight I have ever tried hit like a ROCK!!! Too hard for my liking...Playing Srixon Z Star and loving them!!

[@MaxD.]

Top Flite really isn’t bad anymore, they aren’t tour balls but very affordable

[@claydecoursey2339]

Hopefully you can battle through it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@bradmiller9121]

Top Rocks equal to ProV1? Pardon me while I fall off my chair and die laughing. There's more to a ball than hor far it flies, Robinson.

[@edbobich4775]

The best two piece ball I have ever used is the Cut Red. I have "cut" 4-5 strokes off my score since I started using it. I am pretty sure I haven't lost more than one in over a year. Further, they are only $9.99 a dozen. There is no down side to trying them.

[@richardb2526]

I've played the Cut Blue and really liked it but I can't make it through more than 2 holes without seeing scuff marks from my irons.

[@stuartbradley4411]

Since your review with the SEED pro 1 ball I've been using it and absolutely love it 😀

[@carlosGarcia-xl1ql]

Before my Nike Mojo days, I used Pinnacles. Until the last couple of years, I used to use Sirxons q stars. But now i use the Kirkland ball from Costco!!

[@guyr7351]

Isn’t golf great with the different shots that get you excited and wanting to play more? The bombed driver, long irons or fairway woods,nailed approach shots, bunkers and putting. You can play three rubbish shots into a green and sink a 20 foot putt and feel like a champion. Add in good company and them playing well = does it get much better. Love how James is competitive and reacts to a shot coming off and then Chris’s usual deadpan response

[@jacobmccain8082]

It absolutely matters how it feels for me. Especially off the putter. ProV1X would be perfect if it wasn't clicky off the putter. But it's the highest flying and spinning combo I've found so that's what I play.

[@richardbowman8871]

Great video boys! Maybe do a similar one with Vice Pro Plus balls? They are awesome!! Chris would like the Vice Pro’s

[@davem1379]

BALLS! I’ve still got an old top flite ball in my bag of practice balls 😆

[@-ram-m2664]

with that logo on the ball, they should re-name The Bomb as "The SHOCKER."

[@BryanW.]

Rock Flite! The Bud Light of Golf Balls!

[@bblair2627]

Used to love the old Top Flite Magnas

[@claydecoursey2339]

A lot of new age players wouldn't know what to do with the rocks we played with back in the day.

[@davevardon8618]

Unfortunately, Dick's does not ship to Canada, so we can't get these Bomb balls, or other newer Top Flite balls, or their Maxfli balls. Pity, they seem to perform especially well for balls at a much lower price point.

[@douglasspencer745]

I’ve been using the Kirkland ball for a couple of months and they have a new version and it’s a great ball, I get the piss taken out of me by my playing partners but I’m thinking I’ll be laughing last 😁

[@richardjacobs7632]

No, we use Kirkland a lot here for sure when we can get them

[@biffoswilly]

Its actually £28 for 24 balls - so its £1.20 per ball. a dollar is ~£0.80p as a conversion rate ........Whereas Srixon Distance are £12 for 12 balls and are very good please review Robbo!

[@Knickerson]

Top Flite, Maxfli Tour, Snell-plenty of US balls to review. Maybe you can help get them to sell their balls on this side of the pond.

[@bobadkins7377]

I’m a huge fan of the Snell!

[@crispycremesful]

Snell is the one. Long and spins for me

[@tommiethatcher7265]

Another great golf ball review

[@royclose946]

Well done James 👏

[@granty1954]

Top Flite produced a phenomenal ball called GAMER. The original had durability issues so they came up with GAMER V2. Without question one of the best all round balls I've used. I stopped using ProV1s'...! Problem I'd Dicks Sporting Stores took over and getting them in the uk was not possible. Why anyone wants to pay the stupid Pro V or TP 5 prices is crazy. If you find Gamer V2 balls, buy them!

[@je1279]

While they may be low spin and go a long way off the tee, I'm guessing they are shite around the green more often than not for the average golfer that plays once or twice a week.

[@graham5271]

Can you buy them in the uk ?

[@cjfoshu]

[@GenXGolf24]

My grandma plays top flight bombs but this video was awesome

[@hondasctx]

Top Flite Hammer is a better ball, they have a feel version, and also a distance version, I found this ball to be the best combination of softer feel, medium spin and good distance at the price point than any other Ive ever played. My only concern was the roundness of the ball after seeing how unround many of the Callaway balls used to be when tested. The performace of a Titleist Range ball is also quite impressive but that is reaching a bit I guess seeing as how I could steal 105 of them for a cost of only ten dollars, jk of course. That is over 10 balls per quid.But what the hell is a quid anyway, sounds like something you buy off the counter at a gas station that gives you a bad case of heartburn. On a separate note has anyone noticed James threw all of Pete Cowan's swing advice out the window and ran back to his old swing and then blamed his new Mizuno's. James rewatch your Pete Cowan video, it is good stuff, try it again, and stop throwing great stuff under the bus because you put c tapers in your irons. You should have gone with the stock shaft, the new nippon.

[@aimeagle]

The downside of all golf balls imo is the cover getting those goofy looking eyelashes from the grooves. Even the pro v1 I hit get them. That's why I don't hit the V1 any longer. No sense in paying $4-5 US a ball when I can hit kirkland for $1 and they do the same thing. My irons eat a couple each round.

[@jasonhenry5178]

I still want to see the Callaway Diablo golf ball review

[@timdarnell7819]

I bought some of the Diablo Tours for the heck of it and was pleasantly surprised at how they felt and played at all phases. They're probably my number 2 ball behind the TM Tour Response right now.

Top Flight golf balls have improved and done well to make their way back on the market since last year. These Bomb versions and their Gamer versions are both good depending on what you are seeking.

If you're testing these lower compression, low spin balls, you need a slower swing speed player like Foxy. You and Chris will be limited to how much they improve your distance because you both swing your driver at over 100mph.
