    With my swing speed i have been playing the B RXS for several years...
    Durability is very good, feel is outstanding, overall a great ball! Freddie Couples has been playing the Yellow B RXS for several years as well (not that i am even remotely comparing myself to his game). I have to say that I also play the Vice Pro Soft and I think it also compares quite well to the B RXS but at a savings of about $15 to $18 per dozen but you are right that Bridgestone is overlooked

      @paulandrews8140 Рік тому +2

      Currently playing the Vice Pro soft as its similar in terms of feel to B RXS, where Bridgestone wins hands down is that beautiful launch and flight it is so stable in windy conditions. Definitely worth the price when compared to Titleist's Pro V1.

    I’ve been playing these for the last 10 months. Started with RXS that is supposed to be for slower swing speed and they were fine. Wanted to try the ‘Tiger’ ball and haven’t looked back. Great feel, great stability off the driver and from what I see, lots of spin on chips and pitches when I hit them well. (Sometimes takes me by surprise when I catch on really crisp as to how much check the have E.g. 20 feet short of the pin !)

    @whiskeytangosierra6 Рік тому +2

    Haven't played that one, however, this long time Callaway "soft" player switched to Bridgestone E12 late last year and now wonder how much I can get for several dozen rather high end balls. I have good wedges so stopping balls on the greens is seldom an issue with the E12's, what impresses is the way the longer clubs stop too. Overall I think Bridgestone would benefit a lot of casual golfers who spend WAY too much on balls.
    Most of us like scanning the rough for Titleists, they make a nice splash in the water hazards.

    Hey Matt ,
    Love your content as a fairly new golfer, it’s good banter and helpful. Just watching the Bridgestone vid , can I give you a hand sprucing up the studio scenes ? Decoratively that is. Your content is really good , I am not looking to gain anything. I’d love to see you catch up on your friends Peter and Rick. Either way keep up the good work. Many of you tips have helped my dodgy golf game 👍

    Always happy when I find one of these in the rough. My ball tends to go back in the bag and I use the Bridgestone until I carve it out of bounds or fat it into a lake. I only buy new balls with my business brand printed on them, to give as prizes when I’m sponsoring a ntp or longest drive etc. My balls are generally eBay mint lakes balls or sometimes Costco specials - £1 a ball is good for me 👍🏻👍🏻

    Top review Matt. Decided 6 months ago to commit to one type of ball to play for a year and chose these. Largely down to the price difference between them and pro v’s / c softs. Cant recommend them highly enough. Would urge anyone who likes a softer ball to give them a go.

    Thanks for the review, love the thoroughness. I started with the RXS due to my driver swing being 95. Moved to the XS because it spins better and distance was about the same. I am now playing the Srixon Diamond because I get even better spin and comparable distance. I need spin help and the XS does spin well but the Diamond, which is not a "high spin" ball, spins even more for me. When I need a yellow ball though, I play a yellow XS.

    I have been using the Tiger Stamp balls for the past 3 years. I thought about going to Prov1X I have a whole box untouched but still just received a whole box of Tour b xs and with a tournament coming up really can’t see my self switching. Just because I feel like I can control my driver so well. And wedges are stupid good. I do recommend if someone uses this ball you must be a good enough ball striker with mid irons to know when to club up and take spin off. If you don’t know how to control spin this ball will be difficult to like. I honestly like hitting Change up wedge shots and flighted irons Hardest part was learning to hit the low spinning driver when I wanted. Stock I would be around 25-2700 and great for controlling but if I want a high low spin it takes effort.

  • @ericmaher2316

    Great to see a review on these. I bought a 3 pack about a year and half ago before a round. I always used prov. First time round this particular course I shot 120plus. 3-4 years ago. Shoot 84 with this ball on the day. Needless to say I haven’t stopped using them. It seems to slow spin with driver and speed up backspin on irons. The next round out I played with a bloke who worked for Bridgestone in WA Aus and he said them and titliest are the only ones who don’t outsource their ball manufacturing. I highly recommend this ball it’s class!!

  • @edwargo
    @edwargo Рік тому

    I played these for a long time, more than a year. Price was a factor in why I chose them over the TP5 and Pro V1. They are really good balls BUT for an amateur 5hcp I couldn't get them to spin enough around the green, much less stopping power compared to the Pro V1 and because of this single factor, I'm playing Pro V1 now. Perhaps if my striking was "scratch" or better I could make it work but I'm a decent ball striker for my level and I have a better option for now.

    I'm surprised you've never seen these balls but there is a Tiger Woods autograph the version which has a little more spin

    didn't Tiger switch to the BX (obviously prior to his recent injury)?
