Hi, thanks for the question. The E6 came out before the E6+; however, Bridgestone's new version that will be out next year is the new E6. The packaging is new and improved, but the makeup of the ball is quite similar. The E6 will not have as high trajectory of the E5+, but will offer soft and straight attributes like the E6+. -Parker

Overrun simply means that the ball has a random logo or imprint on the golf ball. In many cases our overruns do not even have printing they are just packaged in non stock packaging. All overrun balls are brand new and are in perfect condition.

Jerry, the shelf life of the golf balls if stored in a climate controlled area is non existent. The balls will perform to the standards they were produced at the time. If you are playing an older golf ball you may notice differences from performance of newer balls but that is due to advances in technology not because the ball is "dead". Only storing balls out doors or in non controllable climates will you notice the balls only last around 2 years in most cases.

Golf balls certainly do have a shelf life. Ever been to the driving range, and no matter what club you hit, 4 iron to wedge, they all seem to travel the same distance? I play to a 10.3 index and hit 5 irons on average about 225yds. I hit range balls and I'm lucky to get 175 to 180 out of them. Same with a pitching wedge. Normally with Pro V1's, I have a range of 140 to 150, at the range, lucky to get 100 yds. out of them.

Comparing golf balls in a controlled climate - on a shelf in a closet - to balls at a driving range is ridiculous! Range balls are hit hundreds (if not thousands) of times, run thru a cleaning machine and hit again. They are likely to be hit off of various equipment, run over by mowers, etc. The comparisaon you make is foolish!

Are not range balls manufactured differently for the extra abuse they receive? I factor in the difference from 'range distance' to 'course distance.'

At PGA events, the range balls are new Titleists to match the course balls the pros may use. Pros switch out balls after they go 'out-of-round' which is determined by a Acu-Check tool. I think the

Golf balls stored in a controlled climate, (not outside in the elements, not stored in a 100 degree temperature,)will lose ONE YARD per year. That means, obviously, if you store your golf balls for ten years they will lose only ten yards of carry. Most of us could never tell the difference until it reaches that ten year mark.

This is a perfect question for a company that started out selling used golf balls! Really there is only one down side; the length of time the ball spent in the water. If it's one that has been in the water for months then it stands a much better chance to become "out of round" so that the performance of the golf ball is compromised. This is rare due to the fact that used golf ball retriever is a big time business and ponds/lakes have balls fished out of them

Storing golf balls at room temp in your house is ideal.

Regarding the storage of golf balls room temperature is fine. If you are playing in conditions below 50 degrees.

In harsh/cold conditions a lower compression ball will compress easier -- thus hoefully giving better control.
