Summary: I'll be back
Comment: Great product, great price. This low cost ball performs equal or better than its higher priced brand counterparts. Long and straight on drives and responsive on the more delicate short shots.

Summary: Fantastic Ball regardless of Price
Comment: I play with an 8 handicapper who has been using these for a long time. I am a 28. Nevertheless, I'd been using a ball that I liked the feel of and was psychologically comfortable with (you know how that goes?). I figured I should try these Intech. If they don't hurt his handicap, how could I do any worse? The ball feels great off any shot. I have confidence. I don't care if I loose them - when I bought from Amazon I paid something like $32 for 72 balls. $.471/ball. (no freight). K Mart was about $11/dozen, still a great price for a ball this good. What have you got to loose? $11. Now the real question. What have you got to save? Perhaps thousands over the years. They should be paying me for this review.

Summary: Why Golf Balls are like NASCAR
Comment: A friend gave me a sleeve of these balls a week ago and I liked them so much I just placed an order for them on Amazon. Some facts about golf balls that I learned from a friend of over 20 years who has worked for the largest golf ball manufacturer and just retired from that company last year. Years ago I used to buy X out balls to save money, and like you I thought they were blems thus the cheaper price. What my friend told me was that x outs were absolutely perfect balls, except that for that days run all golf balls would be marked as x outs. Why? Because the company knew there were golfers that would play $[...] a dozen, and those that would pay $[...] a dozen, they wanted both customers. Any ball that was not perfect was always destroyed, not sold as an x out. And who wouldn't want a premier ball at a lower price, but there were the guys who wanted the same ball but wanted the prestige of having the most expensive without the x. Like he said you will see pallets of x outs at a pro shops, if they really made that many mistakes they would be out of business.
While he would never tell me the true cost to make a ball he did tell me that the cost between the cheapest 2 piece vs their premier 3 or 4 piece ball was just a few pennies. The extra cost was due to each extra step in a mold to add the extra layer. Also ball manufacturers use the same materials, there is no proprietary materials, but that different formula mixes gave each ball different characteristics. He said that golf balls were like NASCAR because NASCAR set rules so that all cars are the same, very little variance, and the the USGA does the same for golf balls. Basically other than the normal rules like diameter and weight no ball that is hit by a mechanical machine with a 9 degree titanium driver at 120 mph swig speed can travel with roll more than 320 yards. There is even consideration being given to lower that distance because most courses can't be made longer and par 4 and 5 holes are playing one stroke lower with new equipment.
Bottom line is if you think a $[...] dollar ball is a better ball that a $[...] ball, well the ball manufacturers love you. All that is built into that $5 ball could be in a $1 ball, and in some brands is, but why if they can get that extra $[...] dollars. What justifies that extra $[...] dollars is the fact that you see that balls name on a pro's cap on the Sunday final. Status has its price. As for these Intech Beta Ti and also their Limbo balls they don't meet USGA standards, and could be the reason for the extra distance most reviewers here seem to get. I get about 15 yards more than my other approved balls with the Intechs. Keep in mind if you play in a club or USGA event with a non conforming ball like the intechs you will be disqualified. And most informal scrambles or golf outing that that have a prize like car for a hole in one, the insurance company that covers the cost of the car usually in the fine print requires your club and ball must be USGA approved to get the prize for your hole in one. Bottom line don't pay attention to brands or price, play the ball that works best for you, not a pro on the tournament.

Summary: Lost golf ball
Comment: I've been playing golf with this ball for almost two years and have found it to be just as easy to lose as balls costing twice as much. Realistically, for the average golfer, a golf ball is a golf ball. They're all white, round, and have dimples. Most of us get spin on a shot by accident. I'm not that great a golfer where I could notice the difference between golf balls and they're all hard to find in the rough. At the rate I lose golf balls, the price of the Intech makes them the preferred ball. 3 Dozen for about [...] really suits my golfing budget.
