They're good balls for distance, nothing more. Forget about any sort of short game spin. Acushnet saves that attribute for Titleist.
Martini, have you ever tried the Exceptions? They are definitely not your typical Pinnacle ball. They are a good two-piece that actually do have some good spin and feel. I prefer Srixon's AD333 over them, but I did like the Exceptions when I bought a box.
