i was wondering if brands like wilson, srixon, intech, ram, etc. are really worse than titleists and callaways. Also I know that titleist makes topflite and was wondering if any titleist and topflite balls are the same thing.
First, Callaway (not Titleist) owns Top Flite and, no they are not the same. Very cheap Top Flite, Wilson, Intech and Ram balls tend to be very hard, which can make them long but have no control around the greens.
Titleist, Callaway and others make both cheap junk balls and high-end quality balls. Titleist DT balls are junk and Pro V1s are premium.

i’m not an expert, but if i didn’t know i wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between a titlist or a top flite
can’t spell them either
i think how well you do is your skill
not the ball

I believe is the level of play you are in. If you are a beginner, you couldn’t tell the difference. The better balls are better around the green. However, I have played with good player using cheap balls and they can still work the ball well (making the ball stop at one hop, back spin, release, etc…). So, by you asking this question, I think you should play whatever and have fun.

Are you saying Srixon and Wilson are cheap balls? Both balls are used by PGA Tour pros depending on the models. Those balls in particular are comparable with Titleist and Callaway. Intech and Ram are cheap balls. Top Flite has a couple of models that are worth getting and are inexpensive which isn’t a synonym for cheap. Pro V1’s run you 40(+) bucks and the Top Flite Gamer is a ball in the same category and costs half as much. I would buy balls based on how well I played. I wouldn’t buy tour level balls like Pro V1’s or Nike One Platinum’s if I routinely lose balls. Then it would be a waste of money.

X15 is not a rocket scientist. Inexpensive golf balls are of high quality…Taylormade Burner 2 dz/ $35.00…Top Flite "Gamer", is just a ProV1 with a Top Flite label.
95% of all golfers use the WRONG BALL! ProV1’s and Callaway ix’s are for highly skilled golfers that require a higher swingspeed to compress and maximize the ball. There are 3 piece balls…Srixon Tri-Speed, $24.99 dz feels as good as any and goes like a raped ape. Stay with the quality names…Srixon, Bridgestone, Callaway, Top Flite, Titleist all have high quality "cheap" balls!

Callaway and titleist golf balls have different sub-brands that are aimed at different levels of golfers. If you are a beginner it doesn’t matter which balls you play. From outside 150 yards most balls perform the same, it is only near the green that the tour balls excel. It is due to spin which gives good greenside control. There are only a few balls on the market that offer this (eg Prov1, prov1x, callaway tour i and ix srixon z star and zurc and zurs nike one & one platinum and a good few others). But as I said spend the money on lessons if you’re a beginner!

I think there is not much difference. It all depends on your skill level and your own feel.

Ridiculous amounts of difference between balls. If you are shooting over 100, your ball does not matter. If you can compress and spin the ball, thats when it matters. Once you get good, you can feel how soft a ball is when making impact with it. Soft golf balls get their covern torn up if you are compressing them good and any decent amount of spin on them. Hard balls wont necessarily go farther, it depends on your swing speed. Every ball creates a different amount of spin for a persons individual swing. I chose Pro V1 ball for softness and feel. I got fitted to the spin of that ball for my shaft. If I would have used a Top Flite I would most likely be with a different shaft and vise versa. Also, Srixon and Bridgestone balls are underrated. Any Bridgestone ball I have ever hit feels great and goes long. Srixon soft feels are junk to me but their Z series balls are amazing.

just like with anything theres always the top brand but you can go sometimes and get the same thing not name brand but cheaper and it works just the same now there can be a difference in balls but when you are a beginner i have to agree it shouldn’t matter when you become a pro you might want to start to care a little more what kind of ball you use and it also depends on what works well for you not every ball is best for every player .

All of the BIG ball manufactures procure low quality balls as well as your $5 per ball.
I think if you are a decent player then you need to stick to a 3-piece ball. Personally, I don’t play the most expensive balls simply because when I do I find myself thinking about "not losing" the thing for fear of the five dollar hit. Pro V’s are very popular on Tour but mind you Titeliest pays these players a lot of money to play the Pro V’s as does Callaway, etc. Personally I like to play the Titleist NXT tours….they are about $30/doz and are 3 piece. You can play top quality balls for a bit less by playing X-outs….these are balls that failed the final Quality inspection like maybe a bubble in the finish…so what……..Bridgestone has several to try….I would suggest buying 3-pack sleeves of many different type 3 piece balls and see what works best for you and your game….
