This is a great ball if you can find them. If your the type of player who is becoming more confident with your swing and want to try a ball that spins more. I previously played a bridgestone e6 which i loved and these check and spin a lot more than the e6. I can't compare them to a Pro v1 which seems to be the standard, but it is a 4 piece ball that spins a lot and you can find them online (ebay etc.) for less than half the cost of a pro v1. The way the flat bottomed dimples are designed seem to make the ball scuff easily, but it still continues to perform well when scuffed. overall its a good performing ball for the price.
