Best Value Distance Golf Balls – Srixon AD333

The Srixon AD333 is now in its 11th generation, and each year, it gets better and better. These balls feel great; they have good spin characteristics, but most importantly, they are great value. Normally, a dozen balls are just over £20.00 (be careful, as older models sell for less and some are much older)
