Thinking about playing something different than my usual Callaway HX Hot. My Driver swing speed is probably around 85 to 90. Would like to find a low to med spin that does decent around the greens. Besides the Distance straight I am also considering the Precept Laddie X. I really like the Callaway IX Tour I just dont want to spend that much on a ball. Thanks

i play the distance straight and find it pretty bad around the greens but great for hitting fairways. Personallyi was considering changing to the Bridgestone E6

The Nike PD Soft probably fits your profile better than most balls. It's a low compression mid spin ball. You'll get more out of it distance wise because of the low compression and what spin it does give you should help around the green. The price is pretty hard to beat too. I bought a dozen recently to play over the Winter months. When it's cold out the lower compression helps.

      Day 66: Played 18! Wasn't really keeping track of score, but guessing in the low 80s. Driving okay, iron play up and down, lagging putting really bad. Overall, it was good to get out and play.

      Day 12 (30 Jan 26) -  Had hoped the men’s group would be playing, but the cold temps and delayed opening kept them at bay. Spent some time on the range working on loading the trail foot on the backswing (focusing on loading the inner portion of the foot and collapsing the knee slightly toward the ball). Learned too much really brought on a left pull.  Easing back a bit, really helped compressing the ball and overall accuracy.  Took it to the course for a practice round, focusing on this small change.  Saw better dispersion across the bag….guess this will be part of the mirror work drills as snowpacolypse 2 hits eastern NC.

      First Season With Blades - Let's Discuss

      By tomfig · Posted

      I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
