went with the L81's. I remember liking the L71's back when they were the top ones out, but 81's have slightly slower meter.
Good choice, have fun and use less back spin LOL
L81's used to be my top choice ever since the first came out...I switched to them from the L71's. But when the L90's came out (Black) I went nuts with them figuring "Biggest, Longest, Badest...etc" However, after getting the new Nike Irons (VR Forged Level 97+) I switched to a different ball for a few reasons.
With the slower meter from the irons, I no longer needed the most expensive ball out there. (Nike Black) And with the increased spin I get from the Irons, I no longer needed to focus on a ball that offered the best spin control. I settled on the Nike L61's and found that they make a great combination with my Irons. I get comperable distance and spin for a much better price per sleeve.
Just goes to show, there are many personal factors to consider when choosing the right ball to hit.
(disclaimer: I do keep a couple of sleeves of Platinum Nikes in my bag for those "important" games...lol)
