My wife's parents caught me 12 for Christmas and I've gamed them for the past two weeks and had a few interesting things happen.  Like I'll know I crushed a drive and it will just drop out of the sky dead...i just wanted to know what other's experiences are with it.

Kinda makes sense… it's a low launch, high spin ball. Which is a pretty small niche.

I don't love MGS by any stretch, but they found that the cores are not very well centered or they have other anomalies in a good % of balls:

Can the Mizuno RB Tour match the quality of the industry leaders? We brought it into the MyGolfSpy Ball Lab to find out.

Hah!!! I frggen knew it!!!  There was just some nonsense happening!  My last round I put a great swing from the deck with my aeroburner mini driver (my 3wood) when I hit it perfectly it will ping loudly and it did on this hit the proceeded to about 170 yards and DIE! On normal shots I hit that thing 230 swinging ( not hard just smooth)  also have hit it as far as 285 yards off the deck.  According to game golf average off the deck is around 225so somehow it went 40 plus yards short.  Wierd thing is that the "dieing" action it would take only happened on full flush hits that I could feel it compress.  If I didn't feel it compress it flew fine...  Just crazy!

Well thanks for the info...put my mind at ease!

I saw those recently and thought about picking them up.

Then I did some more research, found what @iacas did and decided to move on and stick to the Snell MTB.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
