Review on Callaway Supersoft 12-Pack Golf Balls by Sidewinders Rains

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good ball for the price

I bought these balls because of the positive reviews and because I was tired of losing $4 balls in the woods. I also liked the color because it is unique and it truly stands out (at least at the courses I play). I am currently a 15 handicap and I have a very average swing speed for my age (55) of around 95 to 100 mph. The main pro of this ball to me is the price, so if you tend to lose a lot of balls this is a great choice. On the other hand, don't expect a premium feel or a premium performance. Off the tee these balls travel significantly less distance than a Pro V1 for me. My test is not scientific, but several times I have hit two drives alternating between this ball and a Pro V1 and to my surprise, with identical feeling strikes, the Pro V1 travels 20 to 30 yards further. I have read other reviews calling B.S. on distance claims, but this is my experience. These balls are fine for one round but they will get badly scuffed assuming you don't lose them first. Bottom line is that I recommend this ball if you want value and you go through a lot of balls. If you improve to the point where you don't lose more than 1 or 2 balls a round I would recommend going to a premium ball. They will last longer and perform better.

Pros
  • Visible with green grass background. Dormant grass season, not so much.
Cons
  • Not effective at reducing slice or hook
