Take a look at the USGA conforming ball list

 

There are at least 7

330 s. Balls approved

 

In the early 2000s I had basically 3 different Tour Accuracy balls to choose from,

With different spin and launch characteristics. It was really amazing

I recall the TW and the DD-what was the third one? Was there a Tour Accuracy before the TW and DD came out? The DD was great for me back then.

Titleist TSR3 9° Fujikura Ventus VC Red 5S

Titleist TS3 3w 13.5° HZRDUS Black 70

Titleist TS3 19°  hybrid Tensei Blue/Titleist TS3 23° Tensei Blue

Titleist T150 5-pw Nippon Pro Modus 125

Vokey SM8 50° F & 56° M SM9 60°M

They had a version just called Tour Accuracy to go with the TW & DD versions.

Thanks-I forgot that one and I played it for a while. Man those dimples were shallow.

I recall playing that version of the TA but never cared for it. I loved the DD version and actually have a few sleeves of those left and a dozen or so TA2|LNG. Played the DD version earlier this year. Excellent ball.

The TA2LNG & TA2SPN were 100% the same ball as the Precept UTri Extra Spin & Utri Extra Long same ball different logo/packaging.

 

I think at least 1 of the TA models was identical to my all time fav Bstone Ball the Precept UTri Tour.

I just grabbed 6 dozen B330 to test against ProV 1X.

Six dozen is needed to test? If they go so crooked you cannot find them they are not the ball for you. One sleeve would accomplish that!

I had heard that about the TA2 line before. I never played the Precept U-Tri balls in that time frame. The only Precept ball I tried back then was the Tour Advantage. Didn't like it. IIRC that was a surlyn covered ball.

The TA2 LNG/SPN and UTri Ex Distance & Ex Spin were Bridgestones first tour ball to use the double dimple design they are still using today. Same amount of dimples, same pattern, same double design it was sorta weird the first time I noticed it back in the day. Thats when I knew Bridgestone Japan was manufacturing all Nike Tour balls they even smelled the same (Go Hoes know what I'm talking about with urethane balls)

 

The UTri Tour was an incredible 3 piece seemless ball (I think it was the first seamless *see the titleist patent suit*). The UTri Tour did NOT have the double dimples though. I still have 3 dozen in the box laying around along with some recycled TA2SPN's.

Did Tiger ever say (or even imply) why he didn't go Pro V1 or Pro V1x?

Just curious.

 

No he didn't, but being he had used a Bridgestone built ball for most of his majors why would he go to Titleist?

 

Also he has made more than 1 remarks about loving Matt Kuchars ball (B330S) & he went to bridgestone who makes a ball every bit as good as Titleist.

 

He seems to have a lot of early confidence in the B330S, if you watch him chip & put at the Hero the look on his face tells the story.
