The e5 is designed for amateurs looking for a higher ball flight for additional carry on their shots. It’s soft, “tour-caliber” urethane cover has 326 dimples designed shallower and larger than typical, which is what provides the higher ball flight. The e5 promises longer distance with your driver, and great spin control on the green.
The 2010 version of the e6 golf ball is designed for the amateur looking for help with their slice or hook. It is equipped with a new “Anti-Side Spin Inner Layer” that removes excess spin, for a longer and straighter ball flight. This new layer is a never-before-used formulation with a combination of high resilience and low compression. They’ve also created the softest multi-layer golf ball (the 2010 version is 8% softer).
The 2010 version of the e7 has a new “Inner Layer” formulation that makes it 5% firmer. It’s tailored towards lower handicap players with straight ball flights, and looking for added distance off the tee.
While I haven’t had the chance to play these balls yet (still don’t have any “connections” in the golf industry), I can say I’ve played Bridgestone balls in the past and been very satisfied. I definitely recommend trying out Bridgestone balls; a lot of die-hard Titleist players may be shocked at the performance they’ll get. I will be trying these balls out early next Spring. In the mean time, if you get a chance to play any of the new e-series balls, please let me know how they are!
