Bridgestone Golf has already grown to become one of the most dominant golf companies in Japan. The company now has its eyes set on the American market and is ready to unveil a new line of golf clubs and balls early in 2005. First to roll off the Bridgestone line is a new top of the line golf ball, the Tour B330. The ball will compete against Titleist’s Pro V1 and V1X golf balls targeted at professionals and better amateurs. Bridgestone claims the ball, “will provide unparalleled distance and accuracy to better players and is less affected by wind than its competitors but does not sacrifice distance and feel.” The Tour B330 has already seen action on tour, Fred Couples used it to win the 2004 Skins Game and has signed on with the company as a pitch man. Couples has agreed to use both the Tour B330 and the company’s soon-to-be introduced J irons.

If I am not mistaking, if you have ever used a Precept ball then you have used a ball made by Bridgestone. Now they will just put their name on a ball. Anyways, I’ll stick to Titleist or any other ball made in the U.S.A.
