Nike has OPENLY said that the Platinums are for people who swing at 110+ mph. Unless you're pro, i wouldn't suggest those.

I found, when my swing speed was around 85, the Ignites(Nike) work GREAT. They check quick, and theyre long. For 22 bucks, its a save, too.

Well I never really had too much of a preference until recently.

I found a Nike ONE Platnium one day and played with it rest of the round form about hole 3 and never lost it, it even had some deep scratches in it when I found it.

I played the ball great and tried some more of them and I now love the ball. I's my first favorite ball.

Bought some V1's, V1x and HX Hot from lostgolfballs and got them yesterday. Played the first few holes with the V1 and was not impressed. Haven't tried the V1x yet but I used the HX hot the rest of the 9 holes, it has really good distance but doesn't hold up for me on greens. I have a lower swing speed and have difficulty putting spin on the ball so these premium balls probably aren't for me.

I'm going to try the V1x and then HX Hot Bite next but mainly stick with my Bridgestone E6+, I love those.

Pro V1 is the best golf ball. I can't wait for their next generation to come out.

I used the precept EV classic distance. Today for the first time I used the Nike juice.
I much prefer the nike juice as they have a softer feeling. But I don't know about distance.

I like the feel and the workability of the ProV1. It is easy to put a lot of spin on the ball and just as easy to no put any spin on it.

      Nice mate, very nice. I'd say forget about weight until what you're doing stops working and go win some beers from your mates while you're in the zone!

      Weight shift is next on the list but I need to groove this new feel and then work it back to a better shot shape. I started with a path +5 degrees out and a clubface -8 degrees. Hook city Ended with a path -0.5 and clubface +5. Straight fade/slice   So now just to dial it back a touch.

      Too much Sharpie on the golf ball?

      Geez I love seeing improvement like that. Well done. As someone whose "natural" swing is out to in 2-3 degrees I have to really stay on my front side (like 80%) to get that back to closer to 0 or even + for a draw. A big backswing also makes the path even worse. On the contrary a really short backswing with heavy front foot creates a hook. And to clarify, I feel that weight through my foot, knee and hip, it's not just leaning to the front side, it's almost like winding the coil in that front leg. That's probably the exact opposite of what the textbooks say? Perhaps because the textbooks are for guys who hit the ball well with an in to out club path struggle taming a hook?? For some reason ANY conscious weight transfer to my back foot exacerbates everything and stops me getting through the ball and I stand up off the ball. When I'm trying to hit a cut I don't consciously hold weight forward (but I make sure I don't transfer back) and it works. I have very bad hips, knees, shoulders from decades of (falling off) motorbikes and (falling off) surfboards so I can only do what I can do       I have found this "weight" approach works better for me than "try to swing in to out" using any method as I then lose impact angle and distance. With say an 8-iron I will lose 20m from my best shot even if it's a +2 path, because I just cannot get everything to work together.   I don't know if any of that helps - I am certainly a trial and error guy and not a coach with any kind of theory to back up my ponderings - but I am learning what works for me by making weight my number one swing thought.
