Just got back from playing and I played the Platinum for 9 and another guy played it for the back nine. JMO

Is it a premium golfball?....Yes
Is it better than Titleist V1 or x....?.......No

Nike has proven their serious effort in golf equipment with their clubs and their golfballs. Both players found the feel and action to be fine. Driving or putting, the Nike Platinum did the job. For myself, playing from the back tees was hard enough..LOL and the fact that I forgot what ball I was using, says something about the Nike.

Hope this test helps.

I just heard about Tiger going home. Earl must be really bad. Prayers for a fine soldier.
