Balls
Bridgestone's Tour B330-RX is a tour quality ball that joins the company's previous high-performance B330 and B330-S models. What's unique about the RX ball? It's designed for advanced players who have moderate swing speeds.
"Our research revealed a large segment of skilled golfers with slower to moderate swing speeds who were not being fitted properly for a tour-caliber ball," said Dan Murphy, Bridgestone's senior director of marketing. Most tour balls available before RX, Murphy said, were best-suited for advanced players with higher swing speeds only.
According to Bridgestone, the RX is the softest multilayer urethane ball available. Suggested retail price is $58 per dozen.
Eagle:
Bridgestone B330-RX.
Birdie:
Bridgestone e7+, Bridgestone 2009 Tour B330S, Callaway HX Hot Plus, Callaway Tour/Tour iX, Nike ONE Tour/Tour D, Nike Vapor, Pinnacle Dimension, Pinnacle Gold, Precept Distance iQ 180, Precept Lady iQ Plus, Srixon Soft Feel/Soft Feel Lady, Srixon Z-Star/Z-Star X, TaylorMade TP Red LDP, TaylorMade Black LDP, Taylor Made TP Burner LDP, Titleist New Pro V1/Pro V1x.
