Played the front 9 with the Precept PWRDrive and the back 9 with the Titleist DT SoLo today. I like the PWRDrives alot better. I'm going to use the rest of the SoLo's for practice chipping/putting/par 3's.

This got me into using a soft ball instead of the "distance" balls. It feels great off the club and has lots of control. The distance on the monitors that I've used shows this being very close to the ProV1.
I found one last year on the course and started playing it by mistake one hole and really liked the way it felt soo much I have too started playing it exclusivly. Plus it being a softer ball it works for me in the colder months as well.
I started out playing with the PWRDrive and the DT-So/Lo. I like both of them possibly licking the PWRdrives better. Only problem is precept no longer makes them so whenever I see them I tend to buy what I can.
I started using the Bridgestone E6 a month ago and they have become my goto ball. I really really like the way they feel and their distance I hit my longest drive with on to date 325 yard card, 374 with roll.
I've played a few rounds with em and they're not bad, not bad at all.
Long shots feel good, but the short stuff ain't bad either. I do rely on my short game to score, and i think i'm not that bad at it for that matter. They're no ProV1's or Nike One's etc. but they're way above average.
Bought a dozen of NXT Tour balls last week 'cause the SoLo's were out of stock.
I'd go for the SoLo anytime ...
My club pro talked me into a dozen of these. I was looking for something to replace the Precept Laddie which had been replaced by the Laddie Extreme. He said they were just as long with feel. The feel was okay, but the distance wasn't there at all. I opened up a sleeve and played one round with them. I gave the other three sleeves away.
Frankly, this cost opinion still makes it's way with many golfers. I play with many younger golfers, and what makes me stay with the Pro V1 is , decent distance..All day straight, and Stop and drop on the Greens. No amount of comment will EVER keep me from my used Pro V1's for dailys, and my New ones for serious.
Only ball that draws and stops with authority. As a bonus...'It is by far the best putting ball Ever!!!'
I only made 8 bucks in the Blitz today, but I can buy a new PV1 or two.

I have no opinion on DT SoLo...never used one.
JMO!
I admire your loyalty. Totally disagree with you, but still... I'm glad you found your perfect ball.
I like the DT SoLo, but not enough to use them. Soft feel, decent distance and spin. All around good ball for the money.
It's getting colder, so (as always) I'm changing to a softer ball for the winter. This year's choice is the Srixon Soft Feel. It's either softer balls, or a heated cart. The balls are cheaper.
