Last year, Srixon player Tommy Horton won the John Jacobs Award for topping the Order of Merit for a fourth successive season.
The Srixon Hi-Brid, a post-balata wound ball, will be available at all tournaments throughout the 2000 Seniors schedule as the official range ball.
It has a 30 per cent larger core than conventional wound balls to provide an explosive initial velocity with lower spin off the face of a driver for distance and higher spin off the face of irons for control.
