I hate the cost, but I just can't get comfortable with anything but the premium, urethane covered balls. I try others, but I always come back to the Tour quality balls for the short game spin. Don't misunderstand, that isn't for the ability to back them up.... it's so that I can stop them almost dead on the green with full shots, and do the hop and check with chips and pitches.

I prefer the Titleist Pro V1 balls at the moment, but that will change when the TaylorMade Penta TP becomes generally available. I was part of a test group at The Hackers Paradise and I got to try out a 5 pack a couple of months ago. In my opinion, the Penta TP blows away any ball I've used for all around playability. They are supposed to become generally available for purchase in December.
