You don't need distance, that's obvious.
You probably have a lot of wedges coming into par 4 greens. If your approach shot hits the green and bounces off, your golf ball is too hard. Maxfli Noodles are reasonably priced, you won't lose more than a couple yards on your drives verses a top flite, and you get enough spin to hit it close and turn your long drives into birdie oppertunities.
I don't know if there is a price difference between the noodle Longest, Long and Soft, Softest, and Noodle Ice, but I would guess they would all be $30-35 brand new. Most courses either sell old golf balls in the pro shop or have people selling them on the course, some for as cheap as 50 cents per ball.
