"I'll be playing a pink lady today."
"That little pink ball supposed to intimidate me?"
"Not unless I knock it by you."
I played 63 holes of golf over the past 3 days, all with the Precept Lady's IQ Plus. Before I start my review, I have noticed in the other three review a lot of the guys saying "this would be great for my wife" or for slower swing speeds. My swing speed is 85, so not all that slow and I play men's regular clubs.
I have recently been playing the Bridgestone 330RX for my $$$ ball and the Siroxon ADD 330 for my cheaper balls. I have also recently played with the Titleist NXT and ProV1.
Driving: Initially they came off my club with a very low trajectory. However, after the first few drives I started to love this ball off the tee. I actually think I gained about 5-10 yards and was extremely accurate. It produced a great ball flight and was as straight as could be. I ended up winning longest drive for both days over the weekend using these balls.
Iron play: I wasn't crazy with how they felt coming off my irons. Almost as if they were a little heavy. I think just something that I have to get used to, no real complaints though. I felt they held the greens very well from the fairway.
Greens: They actually checked up nicely on the greens and I had to adjust my chipping/pitching to accommodate for this as I was initially hitting the ball too short. I agree with Claire about putting. The first round was pretty ugly as I was coming up short on almost every putt. However, by my last round I really felt I was getting a good roll. The greens I was playing on were not in great shape, so that makes it tough to judge as well.
Pink: The pink came in handy. We play a game during our Friday round where we can't lose a ball that is rotated throughout the foursome. On one hole I went through the fairway (which was a long way away, thanks for the extra distance) and lost my ball in some nasty woods. I refuse to lose a ball during this game so I went into the woods to start digging. The pink ended up standing out and was much easier to find than a white ball. This is even true in the fairway, especially when we were playing a scramble, you always know which is your ball.
My overall impression: Are these out yet and can I get a full box? I have never played "women's" balls before and would not have thought that they would improve things like my distance off the tee, but I am completely sold. Especially at this price. I am a fan of the Bridgestone 330RX too, but can't afford them. Honestly, I liked these just as much. Like JB has said, I encourage everyone to try these balls!
Thanks GG and JB for letting me give these a try!:blob::blob:
