Balls!

[chrisd]

I am looking at some Bridgestone balls witha plan to buy a quantity. I played recently with some B330-2's and found them really good, but, I have seen B330-RX's at a better price. The only difference I can see is that the B330-2 is for swing speeds of over 105mph and the B330 RX for under 105mph. My swing speed is pretty much on that mark.

Has any one tried both and has any advice?

I use the B330-RXS which are supposed to be a bit spinnier than the RX I believe. They're great balls IMHO.

When did you become so fussy?

Thanks for you answer, what are they like round the greens Aztec?

Responsive enough. Our greens are firmer than a firm thing (rarely leave a pitch mark on approaches that hit the green (not very often )) but still manage to get check on chip and pitch shots. Not as spinny as a proV but I've had no problems with them.

Thanks Aztecs. I've ordered 2 Doz at a cost of £39.99 delivered from Snainton Golf, they should last 3 weeks!

I got two dozen for Christmas and have just over a dozen left. I suspect it may be a lot less than that after playing Bearwood Lakes on Saturday though

My suggestion is that you keep well away from Paul - PNWokingham - he has a habit of playing the wrong ball and your stock will reduce even quicker!

whilst I see you have ordered this review article is excellent on this range of balls -

if I was to actually buy some balls it would be the 330 S or 330 RXS as suits swing speed requirements every time.

sadly I don't pick up many

don't worry. I've learnt that from the times I've played with him previously!
