Bridgestone Golf e12 Contact Golf Balls

Product Information

The Bridgestone E12 golf ball, on the other hand, has a compression core that is slightly harder than the E6. The E12’s core is smaller than the E6’s, which allows for more weight to be distributed to the outer layers of the ball. This design creates a higher moment of inertia (MOI), which results in less spin and more accuracy on off-center hits.

The e6 is a two-piece ball aimed at moderate swing speed golfers. It has a low compression core to give high ball speed while maintaining a soft feel. The ball comes in both white and optic yellow and we think it is one of the best golf balls for high handicappers and best golf balls for seniors too. Why? Whether it’s enough to make this ball more attractive to golfers than a direct-to-consumer urethane ball at a similar (or even lower) price is the proverbial open question. Driver ball launch speed is 105-120 mph at a Puetz golf fitting studio. Prior ball was the Pro V1x (5+ years).The Bridgestone E6 has a larger, low compression core that helps golfers with slower swing speeds achieve more distance, while the E12 has a smaller, higher compression core that provides more accuracy and a softer feel around the green. Cover and Dimple Design However, the Bridgestone e12 is considerably more expensive than simple 2-piece distance balls like the Callaway Warbird. Feel The majority of Bridgestone’s ball fitting events will be green grass focused and scheduled through local sales reps. You’ll also see them at larger demo days which may also include the Bridgestone Tour trailer when it’s in the neighborhood. Final Thoughts, Price, Position

We would always recommend being aware of what your budget is when it comes to golf balls and then you can choose a model accordingly. We’re on to a technology that we believe potentially transcends the golf ball category,” Mellow adds. “If you think wound core to solid core, balata to urethane, the same type of transcending technology is in the pipeline for Bridgestone. We can’t wait for 2020 to get here.”The Bridgestone e6 is better suited for golfers with slower swing speeds, while the e12 is better suited for golfers with moderate to average swing speeds. However, it is important to note that both golf balls can be used by any golfer, regardless of their swing speed. It is ultimately up to the individual golfer to decide which ball is best suited to their game. Alternatives and Comparisons Off the driver, both these balls are very low spin. For me, with a swing speed right around 105 MPH, I found that they performed similarly. In testing with other players, I found that Bridgestone’s recommendation was smart: the e12 Soft produced a bit more ball speed and slightly more spin for the slower swingers. For the faster players, the e12 Speed maximized their speed and lowered the spin a bit. The differences I saw weren’t huge, but who wouldn’t take every bit of ball speed they can get? The e12, on the other hand, has a 3-piece construction with a surlyn ionomer cover and a delta wing dimple pattern that helps reduce drag and increase lift. The urethane cover on the e12 provides better spin and control around the greens, making it an excellent choice for golfers who want a soft feel with added control. Construction and Design My launch received a further boost from the Active Acceleration Mantle, which maximized my energy transfer. It imparted optimal speed and low spin on the ball on high-impact strikes for maximum carry distance off the tee and on approach. Spin

I credited my lower spin rate to the high compressibility of the Gradational core. It helped my medium clubhead speed produce optimal rebound at impact to lower the spin, accelerate ball speed and generate impressive distance. The focus of the e Series golf balls has always been the long game: providing low spin, straight flight, and plenty of ball speed. On all those counts, the e12 Speed and e12 Soft deliver.

After analyzing the differences between Bridgestone e6 and e12 golf balls, it’s clear that both balls have their unique features and benefits.
