Bridgestone Tour B X

[GooseHook]

It's truly remarkable, I don't know how I've managed it but I've got 72 holes logged on one BXS. The ball just refuses to get lost or die.

Same here. I know my swing has been great which is nice, but I've been using the same sleeve (lost one, 2 balls left) for the last 1.5 weeks and I play 9 holes every afternoon.

It's crazy how durable these 2020 balls are.

Played a sleeve of Tour B X over 36 holes and didn't notice any durability issues.

Great ball, been impressed enough to convert from the Pro V1. Have a sleeve of the XS to try as well.

Here’s a tour b XS (left) after about 50+ holes and a tour RX (right) after 22 holes.

both have only minor cuts and scuffs and some discoloration of the urethane from grass stains I didn’t clean off until now

but that’s it

Have been using the V1x for the past 8 months... then found a fresh dozen BX when decluttering my garage (i have a habit of buying 3 dozen of my current go-to ball during end of year run out), so they'd be a 17-18 model.

Anyways, decided to bag them for a round and had a blinder, then continued with them last comp and came 2nd in my grade.

Coming to this thread i'm pleased to see it wasn't just my luck or imagination - I agree with every comment about the firm feel and straight distance off the tee, with consistent flight and spin on the approaches. .

So it looks like my spare 2 dozen V1x are going to be relegated for a while (or i'll see if pro-shop will trade me for BX)

Thats awesome. I would post a picture of any ball that I still had after 50+ holes....Lol.

"Blinder" ?

[jonnymc44]

It's an Englishism. It means they played something very well. One tends to have a blinder playing sports. e.g. Jonny scored 5 touchdowns, he had a blinder against the Patriots (apologies for my terrible analogy).

Thanks Jonny, spot on! Silly term I grew up with. I'll work on controlling my Aussie bogan vernacular. Urban Dictionary: blinder

[jonnymc44]

Touche! I'm English so completely understood it. I'm sure I've used it on these forums before as well!

[scott_Donald]

I would never use it.

One English one I love is 'Jaffa'

Thank you sir."spont" ? "bogan" ?

OK, the first is probably a typo, the 2nd though ? Yikes. But at least my Chrome "dictionary" has that one. LOLEngland, UK, oops, sorry, GB&I, the land of Oz, and America. 3 countries separated by a common language. LOL (Hmmmmm, Ay ? Could Canada make "4" ? )
