Balls revisitedš¤Æ
- Thread starter CocoboloCowboy
- Start date
I improvise, adapt, and overcome with the best of em... I actually coined that phrase for the military back in the day... but I still wouldnāt use those balls by choice. Nooo no cocobolo C. No indeed
Kind of, but something of a misconception.
The primary reason for grooves and irons is to channel water/moisture/debris away from the contact point between the club and the ball.
While grooves may increase spin a small amount, the grooves actually provide only a small amount of additional āgripā to the golf ball.
A good analogy is that racing tires are slick, until it starts to rain. Then they are switched out for tires with treadā¦

There's a building near me.
the current grooves being used apply more spin those used 10-15yrs ago. especially short irons and wedges. big difference in used wedges too. as much a 2,000+rpm's of spin between new wedges and worn ones. a friend got fit for new vokey's. his spin with his clubs was down about 1,500 r's.
Much of that difference comes from the new technology in golf balls. Grooves, as allowed by The Rules, have remained very similar for years. The last major change was in banning the use of square grooves. That was significant because it reduced the interior volume of the groove, making it slightly less efficient in channeling water and debris away. Thatās also why worn grooves tend to impart less spin than fresh grooves under certain conditions too.
Interestingly, although itās somewhat counterintuitive, from an absolutely clean lie, there is very little difference in spin achieved from a normal grooved club and a test club with no grooves whatsoever.
The grooves sill in part grip on the ball; they have too. A golf ball has give to it; it is not a solid surface. When it comes in contact with a club (at velocity) it gives into the grooves of the club. I've seen groove marks from an iron on a ball.

Bottomline is the ball set is unique, appears to work just fine. Cause me zero problems.
Crybabies just need thing to cry about, be it truth, fiction, or fake news.
I am sure if every set at 2022 was a clone of my set, players would still come to DCC to try and win money.

Does that impossibility mean food from the trash can is now acceptable?
What did you pay for them?
None of your business, might get offer from some collector who wants unique set.
Ask blackie he knows everything.
Sorry to burst your bubble but they are neither valuable or collectible. If you enjoy them, that's all that matters.None of your business, might get offer from some collector who wants unique set.

So my girlfriend was making me a grilled cheese sammy one night. There were people all around, drinks consumed in excess...I was very hungry. I ate the grilled cheese, went to the trashcan...lo, and behold! There was another grilled cheese Sammy!! Perfectly browned on the outside, off yellow government cheese leaking from between the slices...my mouth watered.
I made sure no one was looking and appropriated this perfectly good culinary concoction from its place among the garbage. I ate it heartily and with gusto.
The next morning my stomach hurt. More so than your normal Sunday morning hangover queasiness. It made noises and kept twisting and turning until finally I went to the bathroom...I had some painful moments on the porcelain throne. Very painful. I lost a good 2lb just in sweat and tears alone.
When it was all over I peaked in the bowl...there I found some twisted plastic, thin and maybe a half inch wide, slightly molded to the shape of me insides. My erstwhile girlfriend had forgotten to take the plastic wrap off the gubmint cheese when she was cooking
Being a reasonable lady, she tossed it in the trash without any thought of covering it up. I just couldnāt help myself. The moral ...? I like Seinfeld
Do you not think that is just a tad bit harsh. How about if we go with "junk adjacent"?
Just last summer I was eating a grilled ham and cheese sandwich that my loving wife prepared for me. As I am munching away I noticed that I was having a hard time separating each bite of the sandwich, I actually considered that maybe my teeth needed sharpening. It turns out that when I handed my wife the cheese slice there was a piece of paper stuck to the backside of the cheese that they use to keep the slices separated. The good news was that my teeth did not actually need sharpening, the bad news was that I had already finished 3/4 of the sandwich (and paper) before noticing the paper.So my girlfriend was making me a grilled cheese sammy one night.

It was ABOVE the rim!

2- I do know textured pool balls will not play like normal ones.
Now, regarding things you might or might not know...sub surface: what is it?
Go ride you mountain bike the air might help outside.
I have no problem with these pool balls, they are ok.
Get over it.
