Former Big Deal
I think everyone started getting their 2-ball sample packs this week, and I had the chance to put it in play this AM.
I had largely written off Wilson Golf as the OEM best suited to stock Wal-Mart with starter sets. But my eyes are open and I see that they are making some really great equipment and deserve a look. That being said, the ball itself performed exceptionally. I generally play a 4 or 5 piece performance ball so this is in my wheel house.
Off the driver, it is long and produces a great ball flight. Side by side with my Bridgestone B330 in limited play was about 5-7 yards longer then the B330. This is entirely unscientific, but it certainly was not lacking in distance.
Feel is great. I know its sold as "softest tour ball", but it doesn't feel mushy. It feels like you make good, solid contact.
Spin on shorter irons and approach shots? This is a PW from 140. Enough said.
Durability is where this ball shines. I hit a ton of short irons in my 9 holes and the ball still looks brand new. I mean, its still shining. Very impressed as I felt the new B330 had given up some in the durability department.
I will spend some more time with the ball, but I am thoroughly impressed with my first 9 holes with it. It seems like it came ready to compete and I think I would have no problem making this a primary gamer.
