Urethane Ball
« on: July 20, 2003, 03:01:38 AM »
Currently what is the best choice for a 3-piece urethane? I'm looking for a good overall urethane ball to help me strengthen my game, by using it to practice alot with to become more precise in hitting my target.  All suggestions are welcome.   Thanks

The Columbia Black Scout would be a good choice.  It is a 3 piece ball. 3 piece urethane is pretty much becoming extinct.

If you can still find one, a gyro particle is also a 3 piece.  It has a very light load particle cover.

Good Luck!

The boss is looking to sell a Gyro Particle, although it's a 16 I think, if you're interested.  If you are, I'll check to see on the weight for sure and get back to you.

There are very few 3 piece urethanes these day. I wouldn't say there are any "best". Just to find one is a small miracle.

Hammer has a red pearl Hammer

Brunswick has the Blue Sanded Groove, as solid (they discontinued the Cranberry pearl, but it is available at many internet sites & Ebay.)

Columbia still has the Scout in solid and pearl:
