I am a 38 year old male of average size. I am currently 6’3” and weigh 225 lbs. I currently play off of a 12 handicap. The Top Flite XL Extreme Distance golf ball is long and straight off of the tee. Approach shots from 90 yards and out seem to stay straight and will sit on the green. It does not fare too well when chipping onto the green as well as on short pitch shots. Here is where the ball feels like you are hitting a brick. It does not spin and sit on the green. It will roll past the pin and toward the other side of the green. It will not give any feedback on these type of short shots. The ball does roll pretty well on the green when using the flat stick considering it feels like putting a range ball. In my opinion the Top Flite XL Extreme Distance golf ball is best suited for a golfer who prefers distance over feel. This ball is again long and straight, but it just does not provide the softness and feel around and on the green that I am looking for.
