we need to get some more balls updated for colby.  id love to see the TF D2, srixon z-urs and z-urc.  and the TM red and black.  this will give many an idea as to slight differences which would enable them to pick a ball based on their needs.  keep up the great work colby!!   clapping

you can always ask him and send him a sleeve.  He's a busy guy, but he'll do it when he can.  Just know that he already has a few sleeves in line....

I don't think  the swing speed matters a whole lot as long as it's the same throughout the table since it's primarily for comparison. I don't have the same ball speed as Cwebb but I find the comparison helpful since I don't get to try all kinds of stuff all the time.

I know that cwebb can compress balls that I can't, but the relative number still mean something to me.  I especially like the wedge numbers.

I'm completely baffled about the spin numbers of the e5 and e6 on full wedge shots.   uhm
You sure it's not a typo?

Doesn't surprise me a lick based on my experience.  Extraordinarily overrated balls IMHO.  Just my 2cents.

The wedge numbers are for a 3/4 swing with a 52* wedge, and they are not a typo.  I verified and made sure that they were accurate.  Any ball with a firm cover will slide up the face of a wedge, which produces higher launch and much less backspin.

Player's generate all kinds of different speeds and spin rates, but what these numbers and comparisons do, is give you a head start on making an educated guess about what ball will be close for you.  Obviously you still have to experiment on your own.

Why the wide range on the new B330S?

I can definitely confirm that the 2006 version does not spin like a pro v.

OK, others have a wider range, but many have only one number.  I was just wondering why the data are different.

The ones with a single number were averaged.  You can average the ones with a range and then they will all be a single number.

It's my understanding that results will vary dramatically with different swing speeds----in other words, the numbers will not be proportionately reduced.

I'd like to see some 100 MPH tests to replicate us average golfer's swings. wink

Thanks for all the work, though.....it's valuable info!

Yes and few at 120-130MPH would help too Tongue You are correct though that the numbers are not proportional as the swingspeed/ballspeed increases, but the relationship between golf balls should be pretty much equivalent

Lets just assume at this point that any ball that has a middle of the road price, is not going to produce a decent partial wedge spin rate.  I've yet to see one single ball that is NOT touted as a premium tour type, that produces anything near a lot of backspin off a wedge.  You might find a value ball that is good off the irons and driver, but you won't find one that is going to check very well on less than full shots.  Until I see numbers to change my mind........it doesn't exist IMO.

I agree, a place to start from is better than not having a map at all.

Surprisingly enough, my first couple of test runs on the '07 B330 is showing higher driver backspin than I had hoped for.  Definitely higher than the HX.tour and ProV1x.  I'll be posting some numbers on these soon.
