I do not think that anyone on this forum is stupid,but I do think that a lot of people are unaware of the reality of the equipment manufacturers' MO. Does anyone think that the .083C.O.R. drivers that they use are the same as the Pros? I Don't. Some do. So why do we pay $600 for "tour preferred " Drivers.? The Pros don't use them. A lot of Pros used to play "prototype"balls , and I believe these have been replaced by "tour"balls -same name -[on the box]-different ball. Would a manufacturer recall a ball named "prov1" when they have a new "super duper Pro v 1" being used on tour and 400,000,000 of the old ones on the shelves in pro shops around the world-of course not,they would call it the "new"Pro v1 -AFTER they had sold all the old stuff.[or most of it]. Maybe it's just me __________________ neil k Last edited by neil : 01-06-2008 at 09:38 PM. Reason: typo neil View Public Profile Send a private message to neil Find all posts by neil
