TaylorMade Rocketballz Golf BallsWow, a 3-layer golf ball with tons of great technology available at Amazon for $24 bucks a dozen and free shipping. That’s a smoking deal and why this ball is our Best Value pick. For plus 8 to 20 handicappers this ball is a great choice. The cover seems to last longer than the Pro Vs and the feel is similar. Distance is great, especially the bounce off the irons. People often compere this ball to the Pro V1x after trying it. I dont think it’s quite as tight around the greens, but I like it a lot. Technology-wise let’s let Taylor made fill us in:
-LDP (low-drag performance) dimple pattern promotes improved distance on driver mis-hits
-Soft cast-urethane cover construction delivers great feel and tour-caliber greenside spin
-High-speed core engineered to generate fast ball speed off every clubface
-3-Layer technology promotes penetrating driver flight and maximum shot-shaping control


Strengths

Cover wears very well

Consistent distances

Good shot shaping capabilities

Good bounce off irons

Weaknesses

Less feel and consistency around greens than Pro V1

Will not help you if you are suffering from slice or hook
