I find a lot of these on the two courses near my home! I hit them at the range to see what they can do! They remind me of a range ball. Thanks for the review.

Hey sir! Congrats on improving your swing speed and congrats on your new gear. Looks like things are looking up! Thank you for the review as well. I have never had the desire to try the warbird and now it'll definitely stay that way.

I play them almost every time I play and they're fine. I'm not going on tour any time soon so they work and if I put one in the lake, I'm not going broke.

Don't know anyone playing this and surprised Callaway even continues to make it. Thanks

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.

Yes I was surprised as well, one of those rare swings where everything just came together.

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!

The Seed golf balls also seem to be getting more attention online too. Wasn't sure if you would be interested in testing those. Enjoying your channel.

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 <140 yards and when putting, so I haven't used them to pitch / chip other than a few practice shots and I did find they had a lot of roll out.

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?

Interesting review, I just played this past weekend with the warbird and didn't experience what you were experiencing

[billbruggink]

Was given a dozen as a father days gift. Can’t stand how the feel in your hand & hoped my first swing would have sent it into the after it left the club. Immediately gave that dozen away. On par with a Nitro

[davidtomsett]

I use Warbirds, they feel nice and firm off my putter

[davevardon]

Pretty much the only Callaway ball that I leave in the woods/rough if I find one, lol

[bobwehner]

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. :)

[sipadip]

Im playing them at the moment. I thought it was the new to me irons giving me the stinger on the miss hit but apparently the ball? Tbh, id rather have solid feedback like that.

[sscully]

Have heard some great things about the Legato LTX 385. Add to test list? 🙂

[ryanmacneil]

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.

Low single handicap, love the ball. Strange review. I hit high drives, I stop the ball on the greens (don't need a zip back) and a ball is not going to fix miss-hits. As another poster mentioned, newer are better than older versions.

Nothing beats the Maxfli Revolution One for the mooney.
