Nike Power Distance Soft

Summary:
Tried this on the recommendation of a Golf Galaxy employee. He said that it had received high marks against ball 3 times its price. I'll have to say it feels good off the tee and compared to the D2 Feel Top Flights its a better ball around the greens. For 16 bucks a dozen you cant go wrong for outstanding distance and above average feel around the greens.

Top Flight D2 Feel, Nike Ignite, Calloway HX Hot, Fuzz, Titleist Pro V's and X Outs.

Power Distance Super Soft

Summary:
I bought a dozen because of the hype from Consumer Reports. It seems alot of people are raving about this ball so I wanted to check it out for myself. I normally play a 3 piece spin ball so some adjustment was required.
I played 4 rounds with the Super Soft and have to admit its a decent ball. Not, mind blowing forget about the ProV1 but a solid performer. It has a soft feel off woods and irons. Putts are solid yet not harsh and it rolls very well. Not too much spin on scoring irons and checking up on chips, well, its a 2 piece with a firmer cover so performance was average. In colder weather it plays really well with minimal distance loss.
I have to say it is a good all around performer but it's not a ball I'll be switching to. Consumer Reports is a great source for product reviews but when it comes to golf equipment reviews, I'll stick to this website and the thousands of other golf crazed addicts like myself for advice.

Nike Power Distance Super Soft

Summary:
I picked up a stray today and played it as my second ball. It's November and mid 50's outside. Hit 2 solid drives on the last (9th). Supersoft beat Prov1 by 10 yards. I think I hit the second one better, too, but I really liked this ball. Too soon to tell, but I'll find a dozen or 2 for next season & we'll see if I can up the rating.

Customer Service:
Nike left me a perfectly good ball right next to the green.

Similar Products Used:
Play the PROV1 if it's serious, but it kills me to lose a $4 ball. NXT Tour is my everyday ball, and they were available at a very good $20 for a good part of the season. First, short, impression is that the Nike PDSS at least feels nicer and might be longer.

Nike Power Distance Super Soft

Summary:
Just cannot put my finger on it....this ball is like what some of the Nike advertisements say, it's "buttery soft". It's like hitting the "sta-puff marshmallow man", but this fat boy can "fly". Good feel around the green, nice off the putter..it's just an all around good ball (weird).

Based on the performance in which I have gotten out of it..I cannot believe that it is so cheap! Honestly, I would pay double..triple (that's pushing it) the price to play this ball....but I am glad that it is so inexpensive.

Nice ball...give it a try.

Reviewed by: sandbagger ,  Shoots in the 80s

Model Reviewed:
Nike Power Distance Super Soft

Summary:
I found these balls at a local store for about $16. I was suspect that these balls could compare to my usual ball (ProV1x), but due to the price and reviews, I decided to give them a try.

Distance: These balls are just as long as the ProV1x. No disappointment.

Accuracy: Assuming any ball can help with accuracy, these balls are again equal to the ProV1x.

Greens: This is where the differnce lies. The ProV1x stops on a dime or backs up. The Nike either stopped on a quarter or rolled only 6-12 inches on approach. Chipping the ProV1x is excellent, but the Nike does not have the stopping prowness.

Putting: These ball are equal.

For the money, try the Nike. Be your own judge. I'm not saying I'll abandon the ProV1x, but for the money, the Nike isn't bad
