Just brought some Nike One Platinum golf balls to try them out after i read this fantastic review about them, i just changed in the last few months to the Pro v because of my 125 MPH swing speed (just wondering if these will still work very well at this swing speed, as some golf balls don't), has anybody played these and had good results or maybe quite the oppisite. Please let me no, thanx.
By the way, I am playing tomorrow but just want to how others have gorne with these balls!

I don't think you need to worry about your swing speed with the Nike One Platnium since it's what Tiger was using the last couple years (before switching to the new Nike One Tour ball this year). Tiger and Nike admit it is not the longest ball, though. It's designed for more spin, but doesn't have the distance of most other premium ball (Tiger always said the spin and control were so good he was willing to sacrifice a few yards). I personally liked the feel of the Platnium and had good results with it, but stopped playing it simply because of the price. I might have to pick some up now that the price has dropped to almost reasonable.

I play the Nike One Platinums and love them. They dropped the price a little while back which is nice as well. I don't have as much swing speed as you but I do have decent swing speed. The ball gets great spin and feels good around the green imo.

I picked up a dozen of One Blacks at Dicks the other day for $29 (I also had a rewards gift certificate, otherwise I wouldn't have bought brand new balls, even at that good price). The Blacks work better for me because I don't need all the spin (especially on my longer clubs). Now is a good time to pick up these premium balls at a mid-tier price point because once they sell out of exisiting stock that'll be it.

I received a dozen of the One Platinum a few weeks ago and tried them out. After the 9th hole I decided they were the best ball I ever dropped and fired into a field. So now I use them to hit a few shots if I can't get a warm-up in before my round. Seriously, never had much luck with these. I guess I can't compress them enough or whatever to get the flight correct. But I know people that swear by them so different strokes I guess.

I like the feel of the Platinum, off the tee and around the green. I'll either play the Platinums or the ProV1's, both are equal in my mind.

The TA2/Spins I fell in love with also, I think they are a tad better than the Platinums, IMO.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.
