Oh great, with my slice, now I'd be searching for my Dragon Balls all over the rough and hazards....

Bridgestone Sports is part of the same company that sells Bridgestone tires worldwide.


So will the balls spontaneously explode and cause a massive rollover?

I wonder how many DBZ fans in the U.S. will shell out the money for those? But the problem comes if they go in the water!

Not that anyone would actually play with these things, but at least they'd be easy to find. Razz

Dang, those are cool looking. Anime hyper
But if I ever played golf, I could never play with them - I'd be too afraid of losing them in a pond or something.

I haven't used them, but I hear the Tourstage V10 is a pretty good ball. $61.55 for 7 is a little pricey (but not by much - MSRP is $88.00 for 12), but the dragon balls would be great for dodgy weather, and they're already marked.

The V10 appears to have been created for the Japanese market, as they don't seem to be readily available in the west yet.

the only problem is the price

People, why are you concerned with losing a ball? That's why you buy two sets.

One for display

One for play

You guys need to watch more Lucky Star.

No need. I doubt many people here could hit the ball, let alone lose it. Laughing
