prutkows,

Yes, One Black is lower spin, firmer feeling ball that's similar to the Pro V1x. The One Platinum is higher spin, softer feeling and similar to the Pro V1.

prutkows,

I heard that Nike balls were all made by Bridgestone.

Does anyone know if that's true?
In the bag:
Driver - FT-i 9.5* Neutral Speeder 686 Stiff
Fairway Wood - X-Tour 15* Stiff
Hybrid - Nickent 3DX Ironwood 17* Aldila NV Hybrid 75S
Irons - Tour Stage Z101 Forged Irons DG S300 Shatfs (2-PW) Wedges - 52* Callaway X Tour Vintage, 58* Callaway X Tour Mack Daddy VintagePutter - Scotty...

prutkows,

thanks, i thought it was the other way around, i guess i was wrong. i was looking through a box i have of old balls that i've picked up since i started playing and i found a bunch of precept lady balls. haha, i used to use those when i first started golfing. i think i was around 13. anyway, the reason i was asking about the nike one's is im looking to try using something other than prov1's and hx's.

But Bridgestone "makes" them, last I heard, to answer the guy's question.

The guy didn't ask whether they were Japanese or whatever. He asked who made them. Bridgestone makes them.

Back to topic...

Depends... hit them both and see what you like.

    • Thanks for the reply. I downloaded a software update and can now measure swing speed without a ball. Without a ball and with an all out effort, I can get over 100mph swing speed. But as soon as I put a ball in front of me, I tense up and the swing speed is back to low 90's. More work to be done!  I am also excited to tweak everything to see if I can improve smash factor.

    • Kind of reminds me of my first driver - a TM R580 at a whopping 400cc.  Still have one in the stable - and like to hit it on occasion.  Makes me wonder if the Mini-drivers of today are a testing ground to drivers of tomorrow of the powers that be opt to roll back driver head size in conjunction to the ball roll back to limit the overall distance.  I’ve not done a lot of research on shot distances between the mini and regular drivers, but figured there is some.  Will be something to follow as the mini-driver unfolds.
