Details: BOX OF 24
Purchase: Recently brought 2 boxes of these balls for £14 at a local discount golf store not a bad price for 48 balls! They have a nice soft feel off all of my clubs and they also putt well. Distance is good but shorter than a Callaway Warbird . But better for chipping ,pitching etc.
Pros: Very good cheap ball and not a disaster if you loose one or two. Will be using this ball from now on .
Cons:
Quality: Played 18 holes recently on a very wet course and ball looked brand new at the end of the round.
Review Summary: Great ball!

Purchase: I went to Sportsmart to see what they had. And the Super Locos in 15 were priced at $16, so I grabbed the box. Thought it would be worth its money, because I wanted to save some money. My game's the same no matter what I do, so I figured why not? The more expensive balls were getting to be too expensive - they tended to scratch and dent easily, and I kept replacing them, because if it doesn't look nice and shiny without scratches, I change balls. I had been using the Bridgestone B330s for 6 months. B330's scratched and dented too much too easily.
Pros: No scratching or scuffing! I played one full round with the same ball, playing my usual game, and there was not a scuff mark on the darned thing. Compared to that, I used to make bite marks on B330s whenever I used to hit crisp for the spin from a 100 yards in. The Super Locos do not feel as clunky, rather, more gentle. Super Locos will last longer, for me, if I am not scuffing it like the other ones, so it's definitely worth its money.
I wouldn't feel too bad about losing these either, at their cheap price!
Nice, sharp, crisp sound at contact. You can hear the ball compressing before you feel it compressing.
Cons: Does not bite as much as the other expensive balls, of course.
Quality: Good ball! Nice solid ball. I was surprised and pleased. The new Dupont cover must be working well. Nice Dunlop Arrow logo to help me line the ball too. My friend uses the Noodle, and this must the equivalent.
Review Summary: I don't worry that I might scratch it, I don't worry about scuffing it. The Dupont cover makes all the difference. Worth every penny. Run out and get it - you won't be disappointed.
