That's a spot on review, I found a Warbird on the course the other day and being a Callaway supporter of equipment I can honestly say this ball is the worst feeling ball I have ever used. I swing my driver between 108-113 and hit this ball on the center of the club, It totaled around 300 yards but the feeling was "tinny". I then went to the next par 3, Hit a 7 iron and with most normal balls I could tell you where on the club I hit the ball, With this ball I couldn't feel anything, Compression, Launch, spin , Nothing , It went the yardage needed but it truly was a horrible feel. Thanks for the review, I thought maybe it was just me.

@GolfBallAddict I actually love these balls off the tee. They absolutely fly and sound incredible off my driver. Using a Nike Ignite 460. I get a huge amount more distance with these than any other ball. Don't like them around the green tho. Prefer a soft ball. TP5 is my top choice.

@saltysteel3996 amazing for distance. Best out there imo. But horrible for spin. Luckily I hit a very high ball so it'll still stick but not when chipping or shorter pitch shots. Thoroughly enjoying the Bridgestone Tour B XS lately. Seems to be pretty similar distance to the Warbird (not quite as long) but has way better control in every aspect. And super consistent.

Interesting results. I'm a high handicap and a slower swing speed and these are the balls I used most last year. For me, they help with the distance but putting leaves something to be desired. Putting is when I notice the firm feel. On another note, thanks to your review, I'm trying out the Wilson Staff Zip golf balls. Those are nice!

Interesting. (60 yr old / 12 handicap / golfing 2 years) I found two of these and gave them a try and really liked it. My average driver swing speed is 96mph. The first three practice drives I hit went 245, 247, and 251 total distance, had almost too much height and were all fairly straight. I usually average 215 using a Srixon Soft Feel. I went ahead and used them in my weekly scramble league and had the same results with my driver. I had both good distance and a higher trajectory with my mid-irons as well. Being a scramble league I switch (legal by our local rules) to Pro-V1 for anything
@zwaager
25 күн бұрын
@mikeburch8467 they don't spin well but they're incredible for distance! By far the longest ball I've ever hit. I find the srixon soft feel similar to Kirkland in that it loses a ton of distance. Maybe I just overcompress it. But it's kind of like hitting a pillow as far as feel. Same with the Q star. 🤷

I use it exclusively with driver when playing best ball if there's a safe ball in play (otherwise it's an AVX) and then switch out to a Pro V1 for every other shot. For this, it's fantastic but I'd never play them for anything else. Driver swing speed is 115-120 so I understand that it must feel like garbage if you're not compressing the ball.

I actually really appreciate this feedback. I haven't had anyone with extremely fast swing speed comment on it yet, and I think that kind of proves what I was afraid of. I think this golf ball is great for really fast swingers who want a long straight drive. I definitely had trouble compressing it and the numbers showed that

I'm flummoxed by your review. I'm 74, a 20 handicapper, and I really like the Warbird. My swing speed (with driver), might be 90 on a good day. Distances are slightly better for all clubs, as compared to other balls, and all are hit high. I didn't notice anything either way around the greens. Our mentalities must be completely opposite since I also like 3 of your 5 most overrated balls. :)

I’m a 10 handicap with decent short game, 105-110 swing speed, and a wild driver. One of the reasons I play this ball is for low spin. I’ve never noticed a bad feel to the ball, not sure I would notice it. I don’t have trouble putting (average 29 putts a round). I like that this ball is cheap. I love that I’ve hit my 5 iron 250 multiple times with this ball, I love that I’ve hit driver 350 multiple times with this ball. Overall I like the ball, but my game has gotten better over the last few years. any recommendations for a step improvement? Other balls to try that may be more expensive but will have e better results?
@GolfBallAddict

Yeah this golf ball is definitely aimed at the faster swing crowd. A five iron 250? That's Bryson dechambeau levels. There's a few golf balls I could recommend, but I would ask that you hold off for another week or so. I have a review coming on a golf ball that is extremely well priced and I think would fit your swing speed very well.
