E5 /e6 vs dt solo - Page 2

post #19 of 27
Going to be putting some e6's back in play tomorrow and taking out some nike vapors that seem to be enhancing my slice with driver and fe

If you like the e6, the 2013 model is even better!  My winter ball of choice.

I stand corrected I was playing the e5's. I played very well today with a lot of wind here on long island.

I have played all three and greatly favour the E5.  Off driver and Irons it behaves, even in the wind and feels like magic on the wedges and putter - for me.  I found the DT Solo and E6 to be slightly longer but also found them to be quite unpredictable when the green was close by.

 

YMMV.

as for bridgestone playing like rocks i can only say this. the e6 in my shag bag is the softest feeling ball in there and it has a nice orange color too. The rest of the bridgestone offerings are mostly high compression which I like but many do not.

Both are good balls.  I played Titleist years ago (back in the days of the DT Carry) and tried the DT Solo when they first came out but I personally feel that Bridgestone offers a superior product (probably why Bridgestone has been chipping away at Titleist's marketshare for years now).

I play the E5 currently and its like butter, not to mention it spins almost like a tour ball.  Im not aware of any Titleist product that doesnt say Pro V1 on it that spins like an E5.

Im actually not a big fan of the E6.  I dont struggle with sidespin, so for me the anti-spin aspect of it detracts from my game because I find it difficult to stop them on approach shots.  For someone who struggles with a hook or slice, Id highly recommend the E6 though.  You will hit straighter shots with it, just plan for about 20 feet of rollout when you calculate the distance on your approach shots.

Am I a Titleist hater?  Maybe.  I just find that once you get past the marketing hype, Titleist doesnt have anything that really makes them stand out from the crowd.

Thanks but am having issues finding the e6 here, as soon as i do will try it out, bought a sleeve of wilson staff dx2 soft distance and like them a lot

I love my e5s. They have good distance off the cub and I can get them to stop on a dime from 150 and in. Maybe this year I'll be able to get enough spin off my 6-4 irons.

You should try out the srixon soft feel. It feels soft with high launch and moderate spin.
