Bridgestone launch new e-Series of balls
Published:
Bridgestone’s popular e-Series balls – the e5, e6 and e7 – now feature a new 226 dimple pattern to improve aerodynamics and give you more distance. The company calls them “web” dimples, which are said to create a tighter pentagonal pattern to expand the surface coverage by 10 per cent for more consistent flight. Bridgestone says the result is a more penetrating flight with a shallower landing angle and more roll.
“The e-Series range has been extremely popular in recent years, especially at live ball fittings, but the new models promise golfers an even better performance level,” said Steve Kettlewell, MD of Bridgestone Golf UK. “Each new ball has a distinctive characteristic designed to appeal to different players and address their individual playing needs from tee to green.”
The three models…
The e5 features a urethane cover and a large, soft compression core that gets firmer as you move out from the middle. It’s designed for higher flight with more spin on short shots because of its urethane cover.
The low-spin e6 incorporates a low-spin mantle designed to mitigate off-centre hit spin typically found in slices and hooks. It includes a soft compression gradational core, mantle layer and low-spin surlyn cover.
The three-piece e7, which features a graduated core, mantle layer and a surlyn cover for low spin, is aimed at players seeking maximum distance who need their shots to fly lower.
