I'll give it a shot, Tiger -

I'm a 40 year old, been playing since I was a kid - I'm a 13 handicap, who consistently drives the ball 260 yards. I'm a fairly decent iron player, but never quite get 'great', with the 20-25 rounds I play a year. The weakest part of my game is my putting and chipping, since I rarely practice - Most of my practice is through playing, so my feel around the greens tends to improve as the season goes on..

Price isn't a huge deal if I like the ball, but I'd like to stay below $30/doz. The next ball I'm going to try (that has been recommended by a buddy) is the Titleist so-lo DT.. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Jim
DT SoLo's are aimed at mid-high handicap players who need help keeping it in play. If that 260 yards is usually straight, you need something that will straighten out your irons. A ball with more spin will straighten out your mishits, and the added backspin will prevent a 15 yard hook from bouncing and turning into a 25 yard hook. Nike One Blacks would be great for you, but they can get pricey. Titelist NXT Tours are good spin balls for about $35.
