Callaway Ball Diablo Golf Balls (12-Pack)

by Callaway

Product Features

• High-resiliency core increases ball velocity across a wide range of swing speeds
• The advanced core reduces driver spin, tightening shot dispersion for better accuracy
• Soft ionomer cover generates long drives and provides even longer playability
• Hex areodynamics that replaces conventional dimples reduces drag
• Promotes a stronger, more penetrating ball flight that cuts through the air

Product Description

The results surprised even us. A golf ball this soft, and with this much feel, shouldn t be able to go this far. The new High-Resiliency core is not only soft, but also fast, which means you ll never sacrifice distance for soft feel. Plus, this golf ball s unique low spin properties mean that players who impart too much spin off the driver will see more distance and less severe hooks and slices. The Big Bertha Diablo Golf Ball offers lower driver spin and softer feel than most golf balls on the market for superior accuracy off the tee and better feel on every shot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cant Believe the Difference!!, April 25, 2010

I had tried out callaway balls before, and knew I liked them, but had not settled on one type till recently. At [...] i took the survey of "which ball should i use?". It recommended to me the callaway diablo as the ball for my playing style. I was skeptical, but found the money for a pack and tried one out. Never before have I ever noticed such a huge difference in the way a ball performs! It wasnt the way i was playing, having played with a different ball the night before. Everything the box says, was happening. Definetitly got longer shots and more fairways, stuck the greens more and enjoyed a softer feel with my wedges and putter. The only problem is they come in a twelve pack, they work so well i only need one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Low- handicap should give a try, January 29, 2011

Im a 6 handicap and used the ball in winter conditions.
Overview:
- Very good distance w/ tee shot
- Above average spin with 8 iron through 6 iron
- Easy to roll, I liked the way the ball came off the putter
- Held line well on approach shots in windy conditions
- only disadvantage, around greens and in bunker will not get spin like ProV1 or mulit-layer ball.

Superb ball for price. In normal conditions (Temp 70-85) would probably go with higher spin ball.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice off the tee but hard to control, August 20, 2010

These balls are GREAT off the tee. These things can easily add 10-15 yards to your drive. If you make contact with these little guys they will FLY. Which is a good and bad thing: good because of the yardage and bad because of the lack of control and forgiveness. If these are hit slightly off center they will zip right into the woods. I would describe these much like a Ferrari - great speed but a little bend in the road and you're out of control. This is especially true when chipping onto the green. Great energy but often over shoots. As another review commented, these will also shoot pretty hot on the green. And by hot will explode off the putter. You sometimes have to scale back your stroke at bit to chip to the green, or really dig into the ground.

I don't want to come across as though these deserve 2 stars, I actually do like them a lot. One thing worth noting is how they don't feel like a regular 2 ply where it feels like the ball is make out of Plexiglas. They do have a softer feel with a lot less 'high pitched "clinkiness"' that so often comes with cheap two-ply balls.

Summary
Pretty good ball, great price, just a little too reactive for those aren't there with their swing yet. Not all that versatile. For those that "have it together", these are great! Although double the price, the Tour ix is a great ball (found on the course). The tour ix's are really a good ball that has some weight to it and some nice control. Just throwing it out.
