Summary:
This ball is great. It goes super long off the tee and is always strait. For those people who aim way left to fix a slice those days are no more. I do agree they are not a soft around the green but they do feel good on putts and feel decent on all irons.

Summary:
This ball is something of a revelation.
I found one on my home course a week or so back,and gave it a few hits with mid and short irons while heading back to the car-park.
Also had a few putts on the 18th....and there was just something about it.
It is straight; it has a nice feel off my Odyssey polymer insert putter,it's about half a club longer than my standard Pro V...and at $49.00 or so a box...cheap as the proverbial chips.
So I bought a box a few days ago, and yes the e6 ( compared to a lot of other balls around, including the rather harsh 330)has a lively and interactive quality about it. A personality if you like!

It won't perform miracles if you slice or hook badly ( try prayer or meditation for that), but it does clearly & gently correct minor deviations in flight, has a nice feel coming of my forged AP2s and Mizuno MP14s, putts well, and allows me to factor in reduced spin on green-side chips in a largely predictable manner.

Unlike the Pro V, it's a little harder to shape shots, and you do need to allow for less check on the greens...but making the occasional adjustment is what the World's Greatest Game is all about, no?
Ultimately, naturally, ball sellection is a personal thing....but like a cheeky Cattle Dog pup, the e6 has personality and if you treat it right it will work for you.
Give it a go,' cause at the price it's a real contender in this writer's humble opinion

Summary:
I played many balls and still am not sure which one is gonna be the ball I will stick with. So last year I tried the e6. Funny, I was told by another Pro it has some good feel to it and gives me some more accuracy. Now I read some reviews which tell us, that the ball is hard. I am not sure. It is def. better then the ProV1 for my game and I have no problem to get spin to it. It is true, that it is harder and you need to hit it perfect to get the spin on it, but it works. I was happy all the way so far. Now I am playing the new ball and will see how this one will work.
Fact is, that for the price of this ball it was a pretty good one.

Customer Service:
I bought the ball at the Pro Golf Discount in Lynnwood, WA. This store I visit often and bought quiet some stuff there. The service is ok, but you need to find help in order to get it. The Pro there gave some good advise. Overall you get good value, but you should get some info about the product you need before you go in there.

Summary:
My favorite ball used to be the Precept U-Tri Tour and I had hoped this might replace the Precept which is now off the market. It does not! The e6 is like a rock and easily bested by any other in the same price range.
