Balls perform differently at different temperatures, whether they're new or old ... that's always been the case.
If there's ever been a documented example of solid core golf balls exceeding their shelf life, to the extent performance has degraded, I'd love to see it.
Besides, having 8-10 dozen golf balls around is probably about 3 months supply for someone who plays a lot golf ... trust me, they're not "going bad" in 2 months, even if you add in the year they sat in storage at the golf shop.

You may be right about the shelf life. It was just something that I read in a golf article so I keep all of mine in the house. Same for my clubs. I read that it’s not good for the grips to be in a garage that’s not cooled.
As for the number of golf balls one keeps on hand, I have about 6 dozen in my inventory. Vice Pro is a favorite of mine but I do like the Members Mark balls that Sam’s Club offers. Two dozen for $28 and I’ve noticed no difference between them and the Vice Pro.
