Get a dozen of each,if they're that cheap.....I've never played the V2,but the E5 is a very nice ball that has some zip on the green/wedges.The E6's have less spin & roll-out a little on wedge shots.

it's a one time deal, so i was gonna stock up. I'd like a little more spin, so maybe the E5

The E5 is great with wedges,but i've never tried the V2's. There's alot of good reviews on them though.Look through the Golf ball section & do a search for them.

I've never hit the Gamer V2's even though I've heard a lot about them so I can't give input there.

I have hit the e5 and e6 a decent amount though. Generally going along with what others have said, the e5 is a great ball. It gets great distance off the tee and checks up nicely on short shots. The e6 is more for players who need help keeping the ball straight, but it won't do the other things as well as the e5.

I'd say go with the e5 either way, because in any case other than this "screaming deal" you found, the e5 will be more expensive than the V2.

Get the E6 or E5 as those are harder to get at $10 a pop. V2's can be found for $10 very easily.

This. Gamers for $10 can be found on ebay pretty much whenever. I've never seen new Bridgestone E series balls marked below $15.

That used to be the case, but eBay sellers got wind of the great price. You're not going to find Gamer V2s for $10 / dozen any longer.

Yep, been looking the past several weeks, havn't seen any under $20 with shipping, there are some V1 that were listed today for $15.99 incl shipping. I bought numerous dz from rhymeswithorange the past yr, should of stocked up more, I got used to it, now they are gone, Maybe some will show up in the future.

I just purchased 6 dozen of the 15 pack of the Gamer V2s for $11 each, plus an additional $5 off coupon from Hurricane Golf. Unfortunately, it looks like I bought them out.

for me the v2's where not as good as the E5's, E5's where much better feeling and spin a bit more for me, distance was pretty close

E6 are great but not if you like to stop the ball on the green


thus my vote goes for the E5, best ball for the money imho
