Balls to it

[NWJocko]

Or Bridgestone balls to be more precise.

I've been using some bridgestone b330 balls i got as a freebie. Really like them with irons and on the green but less enthusiastic about results with driver as my swing speed mustn't be fast enough.

I see there are b330 rx and rxs, does anyone use these or have any experience of using them?

Trying to find "a ball'' to use as the merits of consistency seem to be well regarded on here!

I think Homer likes Bridgestone balls and I'm sure there are a few other advocates on here that will likely be along shortly

I used the RXS for a bit. They were long but for me took too much spin. I'm using e6's now (or will be once the sun shines and the course dries out).

I went through most of the premium balls last year and the B330-S is my favourite.

On the Bridgestone website they give swing speed guidance figures for most of their balls.
The ones you've tried (B330) are supposedly for swing speeds of 105+

I guess they must have changed them this year because I'd swear that last year it said they were for 112+, and the B330-S were 105-112.

The RX and RXS are for speeds up to 105, presumably the RXS will be a bit softer/spinnier.

I am using the RXS at the moment and have done so for about 12 months. I couldn't recommend it enough as it is optimised for the club golfers slower swing speed. My pro recommended it to me after I was fitted for my irons and he new my swing speed.
It's a lovely soft ball that doesn't jump off the club face at impact like some of the other premium balls do. Great around the green where you need maximum feel.

Agree 100%

Cheers for the feedback chaps, think i'll get a box and give them a bash.

Big_russ, give me a shout if u ever fancy a knock, i'm just the other side of preston from you.

Got a dozen RXS to use. Got a sleeve to try and loved them. They seem to perform as well as a Pro V but cheaper

and don't cut / scuff as much either, which helps. I just need to stop losing them now!

RX Ball for me, best ball on the market,got 3 dozen freebies and still have loads left so it will remain the ball for me in 2011 unless I have a Homer type April.
