WILSON Staff Zip Golf Balls (Pack of 24)

Who knew? Wilson makes a great ball for about a dollar a ball. Best for slower swing speeds.

Im a 12 handicapper, mostly shoot low-mid 80s. I have been playing ProV1 for years, but it hurts so much when I lose one!! I just turned 65 and found out my swing speeds have come down about 10-15 mph, meaning I also cannot compress a ProV1 as much as the old days. My son bought me some Callaway Supersofts and they surprised the heck out of me! I lost about 10 yds off the tee with driver, but at half the cost, they were a great alternative with the exception of short-game spin compared to the ProV1. Enter the WS ZIP - Great feel, very good off the tee but much better short game spin/bite. AND - 2 boxes for the price of one box of Supersofts!! Performance-wise they compare very similarly to the Supersofts and AVXs, but price-wise they stand alone. I hand out sleeves to my playing partners and doubters, I have yet not to receive a sleeve in return with a smiling "THANKS - I would have never guessed"!! If you're a discriminating golfer looking for great ball at an ever better price, Buy them - you will NOT regret it!

First of all, YES, I did get 2 dozen balls with my order. Not sure why other people didn’t. These are a low spinning ball off the tee, and It wants to go straight Also, forgiving on mis hits. Irons feel good as well. Putting feel is ok, but nothing special. I usually play the Maxfli Softfli, and I like those slightly better. But these two balls are very similar in distance, forgiveness and feel.

This is ball of great value. Rumored to be discontinued after 2024.It’s the # 2 ball ( out of top 100) with golfballaddict.com. The ball excels in consistency, distance, forgiveness, and feel. This golf ball is not a ProV1, but a better priced, and better fit for high handicap golfers, 18 index and above.

Don’t order this product from Amazon resale. The last two times I’ve purchased, they’ve only sent one dozen balls (should be double dozen)Likely people are taking out a dozen and returning the other dozen and they aren’t inspecting the return. It’s a shame, I do like the ball itself.Mid-handicap (12), ball is good for a slower swing speed but soft and checks up on the greens.

Remember this is a $1.00 ball before you trash it for not being equal to a $5.00 Pro V1. Pro V1 is still the "gold standard" in overall performance.I give away company-logoed Pro V1s to my clients. ("Brand" is image you know.) But I hit the Wilson Staff Zips -- mostly. I find I can "compress" a Zip very similarly to the Pro V1s. Both balls give me "control" to work the ball R to L. I am 67 years old and have a 9.9 USGA index. (I used to be a 6.2 "back in the day.") I find the Zip shallow dimple pattern produces penetrating carry that provides competitive distance to the Pro V1. I hit it about 250 these days, but the control helps me maintain a 67% FIR -- so I hit about 9-10 of the fairways of the 14 driving holes. Being in the fairway really helps you score. (Ask Phil.)The softer ball control effect also helps me hit my approach shots with more consistency. I can feel the ball stay on the iron face tat microsecond "longer" that makes all the difference in being able to "work” the ball R to L or H or L.I find the $5 Pro V1 "drops and stops" (as advertised) better than any ball including the $1 Zip, but the Zip does not roll forward far enough -- maybe another 3 feet or so instead of just 1 foot, but that is insignificant at my level of play. Don't forget that this IS amateur, recreational golf, not the US Open. (Another "Ask Phil.")Putting a softer ball is really important. I use an Odyssey with a soft insert. This give me -- guess what? - more control on the greens. I must add at this point that the Fatso 5.0 grip has reduced my 3-putts and is the best $25 I have spend on golf equipment since I spend $500 on 1-SW set of PING Eye 2's in 1988. Love those grandfathered box groves.All in all, FOR THE MONEY Zips are a great deal. DISCLAIMER. I like the $2 each Wilson Staff Duos better (guess what? even more control and closer to a Pro V1) and just Sunday I found a Srixon Q Star SL on #8. After shooting big fat 44 on the front with a Pro V1, I played it on the back and shot 39 that coulda, shoulda been a 37 if the 2 lip outs would have fat lipped the other way.I think the marketing folks have us pretty well micro-segmented now. You what you are willing to pay for. It's all a matter of knowing your game and then deciding how much you want to spend - $1 (Zip), $2 (Duo), $3 (Many), $4 (Many), or $5 (Pro V1).Hope this helps you “get your game!”

These balls offer a tremendous amount of forgiveness, spin, durability, and distance for both beginners and seasoned players with slow to average swing speeds. While the price would suggest otherwise, these aren't you standard cheap Walmart rocks. They have a soft touch outer shell and a springy soft core that comes off the club face great every time. Just buy them already if this is the level of golf ball you are at, you won't find a better deal. Also, a lot of reviews say they only received 12. I bought the ones sold and shipped by Amazon and received a 24 pack as advertised.
