    Default Srixon Q Star Balls

    Just wondering what these are like.

    Are they Srixon's idea of the Bridestone B330-RX balls.

    I tried them ( won some ) and really liked them.

    They go into water hazards too much for my liking...

    The advertisement annoys me with its crap that premium balls will put you off the fairway & in hazards due to too much side spin. Enough to make me never buy a Q Star in protest.

    They are less than $30 a dozen at my pro shop so I will probably get some when I run out if zStars

    I'm pretty sure they are a two piece, and the RX is a 3 piece?

    The older members at my club seem to love them. They seem like a pretty decent all round ball if you're not swinging 100kph+ and looking for it to bite like a pro V.

    I like them, I think they are supposed to be the equivalent of the Bridgestone E6, the 330 series is more of a premium ball.

    I     love it though really...

    Tried one on Friday in a practice round and just could not get them to stop on the green. Tried the z-star on Saturday and this was much better for me.

    I'd say the Q-star is more like a bridgey e5 than an e6. It is more spinny than an e6 but obviously not premium ball spinny.
