This is the top of the food chain for golf balls. It doesn't get any better than this. The Bridgestone Tour B330-S is a premium tour ball designed for tour pros and low handicappers. Of course anybody can enjoy them if they are willing to throw down $40.
The ball is a 4-piece construction consisting of a soft urethane cover, a dual mantle, and a high energy core. Of course, the urethane cover is the softest cover on the market and is found in all of the premium balls.
The dual mantle is the cool new technology. The mantle is the layer between the core of the ball and the cover. This mantle dampens the compression of the ball, which essentially reduces spin when hit at high rates of speed like that which might be found at the end of Freddy Couples' driver. Less spin results in longer drives.
Don't worry, though -- the ball spins like mad on short shots and around the greens. If you are adverse to excess spin, try the Bridgestone B330. The B330 has a lower trajectory, less spin, and a firmer feel.
For those of you who want a high performance golf ball but aren't ready to throw down forty bucks, check out Bridgestone's E5 and E5+. These still have the urethane cover but are a bit firmer. The E5 is designed to give you a higher ball flight.
For those of you looking for a lower, penetrating ball flight, please check out the Bridgestone E7+. And for you slower swingers (less than 100mph), take a look at the B330RX and the B330RXS.
