MyKey,
I respect you too much to say you didn't hear what you think you
heard. Just as a quick example... check this website.. this one shows
compression on the first tab. Some of the other show it in the spec
sheets.

Not to belabor it myself, but the 0.025" discs are, in fact, thinner than
the mandated groove width which, unless I misread, is counter to what you
said in your first post, quoted below.

Tom,
Great information! I don't usually get wrapped up into
why things work. I do know that in certain weather conditions, and I've
lived in almost every kind of environment you can think of except Arctic, a
lower compession out performs a higher and vice versa. So regardless of

Gerry,
Thanks, and I don't want to belabor this but a hard
ball doesn't equate to 100 compression. A 100 compression balata ball is soft in
feel. Many 90 compression balls were hard as rocks... "Rock Flite" comes
to mind. I don't want a hard ball.

Using a 100 compression ball is like jumping on a trampoline with your legs stiff. The one that flexes his knees and times the release properly will go much higher on the trampoline. The new club faces are trampolines, so a ball with the same release timing as the face ( softer compression) goes

Thanks for the info but whether or not they mark

most. If you dig into specs on many of them you see some as low as 66
