    Under normal conditions -- meaning the ball wasn't damaged beyond reasonable use, or it didn't wind up in a water hazard or was lost -- a golfer can change golf balls in between holes. Once a hole is completed, a golfer can swap out that golf ball for a new one before the start of the next hole. Generally speaking, however, a golfer is expected to play a hole with a single ball. This way, a golfer can't have a driving ball, an approach ball, a putting ball, etc.

    Yeah I would have used the brick as a provisional and would usually go back same brand of ball at next hole.

    Pros wouldnt be allowed do this. They also wouldnt be playing stableford often

    Glad it wasn't just me then. I actually said it to the Pro walking past but dont think he cared

    I had the same there with my irons. I was really confused, but reading this, now it makes sense.

    I think the driver distances were fine for me though. It did seem to be just the irons.

    Visited Ballyneety trackman range last night and now i share the op's confusion. Ball conversion to premium is knocking a good 10% off carry on most of my clubs. This is the complete opposite of what i have seen in the past and i can clearly see this in the app. What's even more confusing is that the final converted numbers sort of look ok, it's the raw numbers that look odd to me.

    For example back in January i was carrying my 7i 155 raw, 175 converted. Last night it was 195 raw 175 converted. 175 is bang on what i see on course.

    The guy working there suggested it might be weather related. There might be some truth in that, but there's no way i was actually carrying that range ball 40 yards more last night compared to January. Also by eye i don't think my 7i was carrying that far.

    In conclusion i think the final numbers look ok, but i find it difficult to trust the data
