Hey all. I was at a discount sports store today and saw a bunch of these Nike Juice Plus 312 balls. They were 9.99/dozen so I picked up a lot. Can anyone tell me about these? Your experiences? I was going to play them in a practice round Friday before a best ball tourney on Sunday. I will also prob give some to my friends/ family for Sunday if the review is favorable. Thanks!

I called and talked to a Nike golf dept employee last week. He said that the Juice is "very similar" to the new Crush ball. I am guessing it is basically the same ball with a new paint job. Geared to lower to mid swing speeds for distance and straight flight. Not sure about feel, (soft/hard). I have tried a few before but never had good success. Don't read too much into that, I'm a 30 handicap and I don't have too much success with any ball. :)

It was the first ball I ever used.

I really dont think they are too bad feel wise. I got loaded up on them last xmas from family and use them here and there.

They are pretty much the same as any other $20/pack ball.

Lots of distance, not a lot of feel or spin. It's a typical $10/dozen golf ball

A received a dozen as a gift one time. I really liked them. I usually play NXT Tour or DT So-lo. I thought that Juice Ball gave me more distance without giving up too much. If I saw them for $10-15 a dozen, I'd pick up another box. I might have to give that Crush ball a try!

I found one and played a couple rounds with it. Definitely longer than any ball I have ever played. Seemed to reduce sidespin also.

They're rocks. If you lose a lot of golf balls they are a good choice, but nothing more.

Iteresting, I'm not saying they are soft but I didn't find them to be Rocks either (put your basic TopFlight comment here) and I generally prefer a softer ball.

You new to the game?

I am just coming up on 3 years playing. The 3 wood is the only club from my original configuration (and I just put that back in the bag as I can now finally hit it off the fairway)

Hello, I play to a 13 handicap. I found one of these nike juice- plus balls and played with it for about 15 holes. I was impressed with feel and distance. Drives were 10-15 yards further that my Callaways. Irons felt good but ball hits green and runs. Overall, I liked the ball very much. Just bought a couple of dozen for $25. Cheap enough to not have to bother looking for balls in woods!

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf. 
    • They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
    • to confirm, I'll need a hotel for Friday and Saturday, planning to share with you
