Bridgestone e5 Golf Balls - Reviews

On 2008-10-04, DON rated this Bridgestone E5 a 4...(8175)

Details: Plain old boreing white round ball, nothing fancy

Purchase: I got a 2 ball sleeve pack at a demo day.
Pros: I played this ball for 9 holes and it held up very well. Looked about new with no signs of wear. Distance was pretty good, nothing great and nothing bad.
Cons: Not as much spin around the greens as a good tour quality ball. With the hard greens in Colorado. I want all the spin and green holding power I can find.
Quality: Quality is very good. No signs of wear after 9 holes, so I used it again the next round again.

Review Summary: This is a decent ball in it's price range. Good wear factor, good distance and not hard like some 2 piece balls. Just not as much spin as a tour quality ball around the greens.

Purchase: I purchased a dozen of the golf balls at Golfsmith, for $25. The reason why I decided to try the Bridgestone ball was because I needed something that offered a lot of backspin to get my ball flight a little higher.
Pros: I love them around the greens because they feel really soft and I'm able to get them to check and stop while chipping. My favorite thing about the ball is that when I hit a good drive with it, there's enough backspin so that the ball gets pretty high and long.
Cons: On days where my driver isn't in the slot, I notice instead of having a lot of backspin with the ball, I have a lot of side-spin resulting in either a slice or a hook. Compared to balls like the Titleist DT Solo, the Bridgestone e5 can be pretty tough to control if the swing isn't working that day.
Quality: I've noticed that the ball doesn't damage easy which is a huge plus.

Review Summary: Overall I truely recommend the Bridgestone e5 balls. It's affordable costing only $25 compared to some of the more expensive balls costing over $40. On days where I'm not slicing or anything, I give the ball a 5/5 rating. Sometimes when my swing just isn't working, I feel it deserves either a 3/5 or a 4/5.
