I can recommend the Nike Power Distance Power Soft (yeah, it's a long name, but it's a good, playable but inexpensive ball. I get them here in the US for about $15-$17 a dozen. I guess that's about £10 or less? The Bridgestone E5 and E6 are also equivalent and just slightly higher in price, but should still be well within your limit.

Top Flite D2 Feel. Best bang for the buck ball EVER

Yeah, the D2s are good balls. They seem to stop very well around the greens, and distance isn't bad either.

what abut wilson ultra or the pinnacle gold distance? They seem nice and my pro shop has them

Umm if you can go an extra 5-7 dollars the Nxt tour's are great balls i would say there high quality balls to give you a lil more feel around the greens. And also if you play alot of golf you can always ball hunt and find some good balls to play with.

EBAY!

I use the NXT Tour and every spring I buy about 6 - 8 dozen AAAA quality balls on ebay. They usually last me the whole season. Regardless of what brand you decide on, there's really only one place to get them.
