Do they have the Nike Power Soft in there?

If that's a PD soft??? then the stats are...

PD Soft 255.9 / 8,888 / NA Anymore? I'll have them all exhausted soon, but thats fine by me. If no one else has noticed ( if you throw out the Nike One Platinum - 239.1 ) the longest ball tested (Taylor Made TP Black - 259.1) is only 12 yards longer than the shortest (Srixon Z-URC - 247.2) off the driver given the launch conditions I stated on the first page. From that I decided to pick my ball based on spin rates off the wedges since I need more spin. But I'm a fairly straight hitter. Other golfers might need a moderate amount or maybe even as little as possible. Just a thought.

Srixon AD 333 249.9 / 8,407 / 55.4 Nike One Platinum 239.1 / 13,451 / 46.8 The Nike One Platinum had the most spin off the wedge and softest Shore D measured cover in the entire industry at the time of testing. It was also the shortest ball in the industry. Nike's comment on being the shortest ball?... "The One Platinum is designed for Tiger or someone similar to him" says Rock Ishii, Nike's product development director, golf balls. He adds, "It's for the guy who wants total performance in terms of feel, spin around the green and ultimate shot-shaping control, and who isn't worried about distance. The ball is best for fast swingers with a shallow attack angle [like Tiger]. Those with slower head speeds won't acheive the same efficiency because they won't compress the ball as well." His words, not mine. Next?

No sir, it either wasn't available at the time of review or just wasn't reviewed. Sorry about that.

I don't know if anyone has posted this link, but it is a list of most golf balls with comparisons of compression and cover hardness. It's from GolfBallSelector.com, which is a pretty neat site. It has some info that can be helpful without paying for the selection process (although I'm really tempted to try the one time ball 'fitting' just to see what it says.

At the time there weren't any "Maxflis" tested. It never dawned on me that Noodles were (I guess they still are) Maxflis? Noodles are now listed under Taylor Made balls. The two Noodle models tested were...

Noodle+ 259.0 / 7,789 / NA Noodle+ Lady 257.1 / 7,453 / NA Anymore, anyone?
