Indy_Oz Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 (edited) This is too good an opportunity to overlook! Thanks MGS and Bridgestone for the opportunity and wow, how many testers for this one?! I'm very curious about the Mindset marking and whether it helps reduce unhelpful swing thoughts. I've just recently posted my Callaway Chrome Tour/Tour X final test report (so I'd understand if I don't receive any of these to give others the chance) and included the 2022 Tour BX and BXS balls in my group test. I'd love to try the new BX against the old, along with my current top two (Chrome Tour and Taylormade TP5). I haven't bought any 2024 balls yet, as I don't need a restock, so these have a chance of going in the bag when I do. If not selected, I'll buy a sleeve of these Bridgestone balls anyway to test on sim and course before my next ball purchase just to be sure of my next choice. Good luck everyone picked. I'll be watching/ reading with interest! Note for admins: If selected, the only month that won't work for me is May, as I'll be overseas with work for half the month. Pretty flexible otherwise.

Big moose Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I have been using the bridgestone tour b RX since taking there ball fitting 2 years ago and I got the same results this time. I really like the ball flight and spin rate off the driver. Spin off the irons isn't as high as some of the other premium balls but I usually don't make it to many flags anyway so why would I play something that is going to spin even further from the hole. I would love to try these out to see if it helps my game. May would be the best month for me, thanks for the chance to try these.

Golf2Much Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 (edited) In case anyone is wondering how the ball fitting recommendations are turning out, here's what I counted up so far (number of forum members' recommendations (percentage)): Tour B RX (swing speed <105 mph wanting more distance): 74 (43%) Tour B X (swing speed >105 mph wanting more distance): 32 (18%) E12: 25 (14%) Tour B RXS (swing speed <105 mph wanting more spin): 22 (13%) Tour B XS (swing speed >105 mph wanting more spin): 20 (12%) Breaking down the Tour B series submissions, overall there's almost 2.5 times more people looking for distance than spin. For slower swing speeds (<105 mph) it's almost 3 times more people looking for distance versus spin while faster swing speeds, the gap narrows to 50% more people looking for distance. Stepping back, I'd say that propably makes sense. I'm not sure that it means anything significant. I was just curious and thought I'd share.
