Re: Playing the free Nike balls

  What I'm not understanding is how the distance boost works. I just finished the back nine at Oak for the weekly multiround. Seems like when I'd factor extra distance in, I'd come up way short. Other hand, once on a longer iron, I didn't and nearly flew the green. There seems to be no change for shorter irons/wedges.

  I used to play a WGT ball with two dots of distance. I got 4% on all clubs with that. It doesn't seem to be holding consistent with the Nikes. 

  Any insights on figuring distance with these things?

  hi

  you have to remember that they also have more bs dots wghich short it, so the bigger advanced comes with ns or top spin or with bs you get same distance as other balls but much more control.
