If they were 2012 balls and if I was not color deficient (which makes pink balls really hard for me to see in green grass), I'd play them. Real men are all about supporting a cure for breast cancer.

That would actually be really cool for this summer as I'm playing in a breast cancer awareness tourney.
However, my swing is around 110 -- would that be ok with this golf ball?

No, I don't think I am MAN enough.

I could probably beat most all y'all to a pulp, but beatings on the course are in poor taste. That means my game would have to do the talking. Soooooooo.... I have to say "No". After all most WRXer's drive it 350!

I can do Yellow though! Z-Stars Baby!

Haha I'm assuming he's saying he could beat up everyone "to a pulp" with his fists but not with his golf game? in other words his golf game isn't man enough to game a pink ball.

I tried some this winter when I was having trouble seeing my ball in flight. Then the trouble was seeing the ball go in the woods! I played absolutely horrible with them. Probably just in my head, but I couldn't deal with it.

Exactly. I was trying to be self-effacing and modest about my game. I honestly couldn't play a pink ball.

Thanks Cpeck.

And don't call me buddy, Swizbeatz

For Scrambles I have been know to tee off with Pink or Purple balls as a joke.  But after I get all the chuckles and laughs on the first tee from everyone around, they kind of shut up when I put my Pink ball 150 yards past their "dude I hit one 320 yesterday" ball that was actually 210 yards.

Math is a funny thing in golf.  Sometimes we can add our score but don't realize when the hole plays 360 from the way back tees and the tees are up 100 yards from normal that the 40 yards you have left is really from 250.

I get similar comments with my yellow z stars. "they didn't have pink?".
If I didn't have so ,any yellow zstars I'd pick up a box, might be even worth getting one for those special occasions when I'm playing with annoying people like that.

It is too bad that people get so hung up on what everyone else does.

My BIL is totally against pink anything so I'll be gaming this one next time I beat him on the course :D

I've actually been using this for a week now and find that it's easier to track in the air on sunny days and very easy to find on the course for those guys, like myself, who don't stay in the short grass.

Just bought a dozen at roger Dunn west la tent sale. They were only 24.99 per dozen minus a coupon I had for 10 dollars of a 50 dollar purchase. Going to give to my mom, but probably take a ball or two to try out.

I played these balls they are decent and its fun to out drive my buddies with a pink ball.  They are not to great around the greens though.  On a side note I found a pink hello kitty golf ball on the course a few weeks ago and shot one of my lowest rounds in a long time.  I went eagle, eagle, par eagle in a best ball tournament.  Now I need to find some more of those.

My wife lost her battle with breast cancer 7 years ago. I would definitely play with pink balls to support breast awareness.
