Bridgestone Golf Balls

A prescription for maximizing your carry yardage has arrived, courtesy of the new Bridgestone Tour B330-RX golf ball. If your clubhead speed with a driver is not beyond the 105mph mark, you are not activating the performance features in most of today’s premium golf balls. The new RX performs at its best when struck solidly by a driver moving at between 85 and 104mph. $45.00 CDN/dozen (www.bridgestonegolf.com)
