Pros: Pretty decent price, good extra distance off the tee and fairway.
Cons: Did not help my awful slice!
The Bottom Line: I would recommend the ball, it may not improve your game but it's a good quality product at a reasonable price for the average golfer.
roynyr's Full Review: Nike Juice 312 Golf Balls 1 Dozen
While shopping at a local sporting goods store back in May, I purchased a twelve pack of these Nike Juice 312 golf balls. I paid $14.99 for the dozen. Some of the various features of this golf ball that are specifically mentioned by the manufacturer on the box are the "juicy" core which supposedly enhance the distance of the ball through their advanced technology which also in turn reduces the problems of flaring and ballooning ( which is one of my big problems on the course ). Also, the ball emphasizes a "juicy" cover which they project will control directional agitation and wind puncture. They also say it gives you greater carry in the air and allows the ball to fly higher and straighter too.
Ah, now I see where they got the name juice in the title of their product!
Another claim of this particular golf ball is to improve your distance while reducing the amount of misdirected hits. I like my distance of the tee but the big problem with my golf game is a tendency to slice everything off of the tee to the right. Playing with the Nike Juice 312 golf ball for the first time recently, I sincerely believe I received some more distance on drives. Quite frankly, no golf ball is perfect; it depends upon mostly on your individual skill at the game. But, for the more advanced golfer perhaps a 10 handicap or so, this golf ball will probably and dramatically improve their long game. I did not notice a difference around the greens for me.
Four!
The Nike Juice 312 golf ball enables the player to really get a nice drive off the tee. I love to drag my big old driver out of the golf bag and let it rip and I feel as though extra distance is on my ball with this product. I was really getting a nice jump off the tee. I believe that the explosion off the driver is really impressive. The ball really seemed to fly off my clubs, especially the driver as I said, when struck. I was able to strike it firmly and got the nice consistent "jump" that golfers like to receive and I did also get a good roll as well from the golf ball.
When the ball was hit, there was almost a slingshot effect as the ball hit the club head squarely. It gathered momentum and then all of the sudden flew off in the distance. A perfect drive on the fairway is the ultimate rush for the average hacker. I always say that one great drive can make up for a day of utter frustration and misery out on the course. I hit a couple of great ones the round that I played with the Nike Juice 312 golf ball.
No Really This Time...Four...Look Out!
I have a big problem with the slice. My ball tends to drift right ( sometimes exponentially! ) on the fairways but especially off the tee. I have to be honest and say I did not notice a real improvement with this ball. However, that probably accounts more for my lack of skills than for the ball's features!
Overall
So in conclusion, I would have to recommend the Nike Juice 312 golf balls. They provide good distance for the golfer off the tee, they are well constructed and they are a reasonable price. They may not improve your game but they are a good quality product at a reasonable price for the average golfer who plays once a month or so at the local golf course.
