I broke my ankle in May and my Dr. wanted me to start back playing golf Slowly. I bought solid plastic balls, on Amazon, but they went to far and I had to walk a lot to retrieve them. I found these at Walmart, and they are perfect. I can hit them in my Side Yard, or Back Yard, and they never leave my yard. They fly true to the swing pattern, but are effected by the Florida afternoon winds. I am hoping that by the time I can get back to playing, these balls will help make sure my swing will be almost normal.
