I switched to this ball over the Pro V1 and I got my first hole in one. 27 days later, on Father's Day, I got my 2nd. I was recommended this ball by a Bridgestone Technician. I am never switching back. I wish they were a little softer around the greens like the Pro V1 but for the money I think this is the best ball available.

I'm 69 yrs. old with a 9 handicap and relatively slow swing. I count on accuracy over distance in scoring. I'm on my second dozen of the Bridgestone e5 and am so pleased with the ball that I don't think I need to do any more shopping around. I've found my ball. Excellent feel on all the clubs. I don't know if the "dual dimple" stuff makes any difference, but the ball sure does fly nicely, roll out on the fairway and stop well on the green. Great ball, great price.

I changed from Pro V1 to e5 and can't believe the additional distance I see on my drives. In addition, I was very impressed with the feel with my short game. I'm happy I made the change to the e5 ball. Thanks!

I switched to the e5 from the original Noodle and absolutely love it. Love the distance off tee and the feel around the greens. I even got my brother to switch after out-driving him for 9 holes. I let him borrow a ball for the back nine and he was sold.

My brother was playing the e5 during one of our rounds and I noticed he was driving the ball some 40yds past me. We typically hit just about the same distance and was surprised he was hitting it so far past me this time. I asked to use one of his balls starting the back nine and ended up matching his distance in drives. Nothing changed but the ball. This ball is great and i've switched over.

After trying about every ball out there i realized i dint need a four or 5 core ball. I had developed a slice on my drives which is something I never did before. Took the bridgestone fitting and tried the e5. Wow!! What a difference a ball will make. I had so much more control over the ball than any other brand and for the price you cant go wrong. I ended up playing the best round of the season so far with the e5.

I played the e5 for the first time this past weekend after playing "premium tour balls" for many years. I picked up 5 yards of distance with my irons and at least 10 to 15 extra yards with my driver. I did not see any loss of backspin with approach shots into greens. If there was any less backspin on pitch shots and half-wedges, the difference wasn't noticeable. A great ball, and for only $27 a dozen, an even greater value!

I now play the e5. Age: 56; current handicap: can't turn like I used to! Was a 3-hdcp 37 years ago (sheesh). Few of you remember the Hogan 100 or the Pro Trajectory 100: these were great putting and chipping balls. Lower your score with a soft-feeling ball that almost kisses of the putter as well as those older wound balata balls. If I got to play more often, I might try the 330 series. The e5 doesn't balloon up: it carries flat for me. Distance no problem.

Played e5 first time today on home course and just loved it. Came in 1 to 2 clubs less on every hole. Stoped nearly as well as prov1 on the greens and my score droped 4 strokes. Will I keep playing it, you bet.

After trying every premium ball out there and going through bridgestones ball fitting i have found that the new e5 is the best ball all around. I just love the feel of the e5 with every club in my bag. Its also very durable and i will play this ball all the time, no more playing a different ball every round. The new e5 is awesome!
