Local driving range had a Bridgestone ball fitting earlier.

Coming off my golf lesson I wanted to hit some more balls so I stopped by and signed up for a fitting.

When it came to my turn I talked to the guy running it and turns out their equipment was not able to be configured for a lefty. So the guy got me a bucket of balls and watched me hit them. Asked me some questions about my game. (he was pretty impressed on how well I could hit for how long I have been playing)

I told him I have been playing the Nike Power distance soft and he recommended the Bridgestone E6+ to reduce my fade a bit more and get a more straighter shot. He also stated the Treosoft might be good as an alternative. I really like that they didn't just recommend their most expensive ball.

Also he stated that Bridgestone actually makes Nike's balls for them.

In my Staff bag:
Bazooka HP-5 Driver 460cc
Bazooka OS HP-5 3/5 Woods
Jmax QL Irons 5-PW (Graphite Stiff Shafts)
X-tour Gap Wedge 52* X-tour Sand Wedge 56* Lob Wedge 60* Rossa Daytona 1 Putter

Kudos to you for trying the ball fitting.

More people should try this, rather than just grab the nearest box of Pro v1.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
