The Bridgestone Extra Soft retails for $21.90 a dozen (MSRP) and as its name suggests, it's aimed at golf players looking for longer distance and straighter ball flight, together with a superior/soft feel on all shots. Basically, if you're into value and all round performance, the Bridgestone Extra Soft may be the answer to your prayers. So, if you're a slow swinger who requires increased/better feel and distance from your golf gear, here's another great product from Bridgestone, which was designed and built after realizing that most golf players fail to match their swing speed with the golf balls they're using, thus inhibiting the distance they can achieve. The Bridgestone Extra Soft golf ball is focused at these golfers, and it will definitely help with improving distance on every shot, round after round.
The ball features a two piece construction which is a combination between an exceptionally soft ionomer coating and an extra-soft core. The end result is a long ball with increased feel and a flat ball flight on all shots, round after round. The low compression core allows you to gain maximum distance by compressing the ball fully, even if you're a low swinger type. According to Bridgestone, more than seventy five percent of golfers they've tested have a swing-speed lower than 105 miles per hour from the tee, hence the Bridgestone Extra Soft will suit most golf players looking for increased yardage. Keep in mind that the soft ionomer coating of the ball doesn't impair feel, because the ball is capable of more spin, which translates into great green-side performance. The proprietary Seamless Cover Technology and the 330 dimple design confers the ball good aerodynamics, making it a great choice for amateurs looking to improve their game.
