Just wanted to see how long a Bridgestone B XS could last.

Started playing a few e6's I found and just loved the ball, probably the best ball I have played for the money, liked them so much I stepped up to the B RX and really like this ball as well, not sure if it's true but I feel less side spin with this ball, as far as durability haven't noticed that being that great, I will usually have a scuff or two every 18 holes, Just wish Bridgestone would do something with their logo, not a fan of the B, like Bridgestone spelled out much better! Great story though

Don't be too impressed...my last round of 2019 was on a course I didn't know and it was very cold. Lost four balls that round!

B RX is a good ball. I've played it a bit, but I prefer more spin, so the B XS is a better fit for me. I have no idea if the durability is better or worse for the B RX, as I just don't have enough rounds in with it to have any real opinion. A friend plays the Bridgestone E balls and loves them.

I LOVE the BXS, but I have never found it to be all that durable... If I keep it in the middle all day, sure it's fine, but one shot offline and it's got a good scrape. For durability I MUCH prefer the Srixon Z Star XV, but for feel the BXS wins. Impressive job here OP.

For sure with the Srixon. I just the other day I was at the 19th telling someone about how the Zstar XV held up so much better than the BX I had gone three test rounds with. My bag was near and went and got them to show to him. I think the bright white of the Z helps, the Bridgestone looked gray after the three rounds. Also that youtube channel of fitters in Toronto said how they use the XV because they hold up so well. I did like the Bridgestone, but much prefer the Srixon.
