Good stuff Brett, any chance you were able to look at spin numbers of your wedges?Got a few swings with this ball yesterday at a little informal THP gathering at a local GPI location. We had an impromptu long drive contest and a few guys tried this ball. Joe's brother in law, who's a pro at a nearby course hit the longest drive at 307 yards with this ball. He got 15 degrees of loft with a little under 1800 spin. This was surprisingly low considering his club head and ball speeds.
I was swinging driver poorly (which is not really surprising as I have not hit the big stick in several weeks) and was hitting one high push fade after another, but was seeing a little more distance than I normally would in these situations. I was seeing on these bad swings spin in the 2800 to 3300 range which is 500 to 750 spin less than I typically would have on these swings with my gamer ball (chrome + or 330-S). Ball speeds on most of these swings stayed right near 160mph which is better than expected when I hit these push fades. Total distance was at least 10 yards further carry than I typically see with these swings too.
And the monitor was a GC2 which is the same as I normally use so I trust the results.
I can't wait to see what this ball does when I actually start putting some good driver swings on it. The feel was nice and soft too. I think I'm going to be playing this a lot the coming season.
