I just picked up a dozen Nike Juice 312 balls yesterday. I have not hit them yet, but the packaging got me. I can't resist a ball that actually has the word GINORMUS printed on the side in green. They are a lower compresion ball that goes for $20/dozen.

No have not tried them yet but been on the website and seen them busting a gum ball machine and I now want to try them when they arrive in the UK.

Can you tell me what there like when you have hit them?

I love the look of the packaging and the fact that they are called juice just makes them even more appealing.
Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose.

All I know is any ball that can do that to a jello mold must be incredible.

Seriously though I was wondering the same thing. Personally I was going to buy up some of the green packaged distance balls (Soft). Plus the 'ignite' ball is on sale a lot around me right now. It's not like I'll be playing a game soon, but let me know.

I really like the Titleist DT SO/LO which I think is supposed to mean soft/long. Could this be a Nike 'version' to compete with the SO/LO? If you like the Juice as much as I do the SO/LO you'll be very happy.

What's in the bag:
Driver - TPS 320 12 degree (graphite)
3w - TPS (steel)
4w - Citation (steel)
Irons - 3-PW, TPS - The oversize prism backed with Sims shock relief inserts in shafts - (steel) I'll occasionally substitue my TPS 1 iron for the 3 iron.SW 56 - Staff BeCu (steel)SW 60 - TPS...

Bought a box in Myrtle Saturday and put them in play on Sunday morning at TPC. This ball is long. On two occasions I smoked a five wood past the long drive (driver) off the tee. The ball felt a little harder than the Nike distance soft which I regularly play. I had a little hard time around the green. I only lost three balls yesterday, so I will still have a chance to use the other three sleeves. Inital reaction is to keep using it for now...

I played with a Nike Juice ball this Sunday and it felt like Pro Vx. In iron play and driving it was difficult to tell the difference. Putting and chipping made it more obvious though in that Nike Juice felt harder (more solid) than Vx. Bottom line, I'd play these and save some money, but then again, I lose fewer than a ball per round so it doesn't really matter that much. Juice would be good for beginners.

Yea..Those are some interesting web commercials!

at nikegolf.com (juice ball!!)

However.....I am guessing if you launch any golf ball out of a cannon it will do some major damage on what ever it hits.... Just a guess!!

    • I'm good with the bunkers, and the fairways are SUPER wide. Three yards should stop a ball that isn't landing in it from rolling into the hay.
    • I'm a little behind, but I just finished listening to the episode about practicing while on vacation.  I have two vacations coming up this month that I won't be bringing golf clubs with me on, and this was perfectly timed (I'm sure I am not the only one going on vacation in June).   Especially the part about stretching.  I keep putting off adding stretching, with golf in mind, to my daily routine.  I think I'm going to use these upcoming vacations, the first of which I'm flying off to on Thursday, as a way to get into this habit.   For anyone else interested, Fit For Golf (see sidebar) has fantastic stretching routines (some of which, I think, are on their free area).  I really should get back to doing their main exercises too.  I don't have any affiliation with them beyond "satisfied customer," in case that sounds like an ad. I may end up posting in the 5 minutes thread when I do golf stretches if it's my only practice that day... as if I don't already sound like a broken mp3 with my 10-15 minutes hitting indoors part. And back to the topic:  anyone not caught up on the podcast should consider catching up and listen to that episode, especially if you're going on a non-golf vacation this summer and want some practice ideas that aren't the at-home practice routine from LSW about long bunker shots (which I am sure we all do regularly).
    • Mostly pull cuts to slices. Some random pull draw/hooks pending of I hit the toe. 
    • What's the rest of that story? Where was the ball going?
    • The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.
