Rick: "I would have to change balls after 3 holes." Me: I change balls after every 3 strokes when I run out of luck finding it in the woods.

Perhaps a test with the 'swingless' driver would give a more consistent result and accuracy could be tested that way?

*Rick, for the next ball review I want to see the Unputtaball!*

At Wilson R&D: "Hey Phil did we change the dimple pattern this year?" Phil: "Yeah." "We could save money by not painting the balls and call them better." Phil: "Brilliant do it!"

Sometimes “I don’t know” is the best answer. As always, thank you, Rick, for the honest review. As for me, painted or unpainted, I can always find the trees.

2:02 rick should frame that!

I mean, the logic is sound - I'm just not sure if its enough to really matter.

I think it's going to affect drag and spin. Not so much draw or fade. As we all know that is affected by club face position at impact.

I have to admit, the dirty look for whatever reason was super cool to me. An unpainted golf ball is just insanely unique in my eyes. It’s like memories get imprinted in the ball as you play. I bought them and love them… I’m the odd duck though, they recently went out of production.

Nice video Rick, I think your conclusion was pretty solid: you just can't tell if there's really a difference. For the common golfers, it just comes down to getting your swing down rather than trying to find gear that will do it for you.

Love the show keep up the good work!

Great review as always Rick! Have you ever done any videos on how to overcome a bad shot or a bad hole? Tiger had a 10 this weekend at the Masters and then finished the rest of his round with 6 birdies or something like that. A video on how to master your emotions would be interesting and helpful. Cheers from Mexico!

I like the concept and they look great as well. I’d like to try these out. Great review as always Rick! Stay safe 👍

Loving the cut away scene at the end 🙌😂 pretty epic looking scenery!

Subscribed, liked and commented. Absolutely love your videos Rick. I'm new to golf and have learned so much from your vids.

Love the B-Roll transitions!! Love the classically Patented Rick Schiels Ball Review!!

used to play the DX2 and DX3 soft several years ago and they were a good ball at a good price and I think they were the only ball at the time to have flat dimples, would love to try these out, like the look of the course that you were testing on.

Accuracy: Add accuracy sampling to your tests. Hit 12 ball at a par 3 and measure how close they come to the hole. Take out the Top and bottom numbers and show the average and standard deviation. You have a very complete test. I like the addition of the hole in one challenge. A great way to add to the Rick Shiels ball test format. 1) Ball feel at the putter. 2) Durability 3) Cutter! Always fun. 4) Driver 5) Proposed 200 yard hole in one challenge. (Shows statistics) I don't know why I subscribe to your golf channel. I am mesmerized by your presentation. I haven't played golf in more than a decade. But I keep watching. What's wrong with me?

Great honest review as always Rick, I need a lot more than a new ball to hit straight!! 🪝🍰

Listen to every one of your podcasts. You and guy are great, keep it up!

I have changed from using the Pro V 1 to the standard Model ball. It's so good

Been playing with Wilson 50's and Duo Soft, cant wait to try these out!

Great video as always!

Another great video Rick. After watching your videos I am always inspired to play a round!

Great Vid Rick!

Thanks Rick!! I'm gonna have to try them.

Like the look of Wrexham GC, great to see other courses in the videos.

I use the Wilson Duo Professional, which I like better than any pro v. I hope they continue making it as i'm not always convinced that all the changes to balls make much of a difference to the average golfer.

I found an unpainted Titleist on my home course, and I noticed i was playing REALLY well with it for some reason. For 2-3 rounds or so then i think i lost it, but there was a noticeable improvement

Nice test. Must give them a try

Interesting concept, great review!
