   Not available in the US? Quite frankly My Dear – Who gives a Damn about the US?
   And – Dear Fellow Gearheads – hadn’t you considered that the Rest of The World also logs into GOLF WRX, not just you guys? Take your heads out of your butts and concentrate on finding a way to win the Ryder Cup or perhaps you never will again. Just keep telling yourselves how good your (made for television) PGA Tour is! Heard the latest? Sponsors want 15 hole rounds and 3 day tournaments – makes better television, don’t you know?

   Not available?? So what! You never lusted after something that was not available? Oh man, they’re over there with their balls in the air a fraction longer thanks to those dimples so unavailable to me! I want those dimples so bad I’ve already put a tour ball in my vise and with a 6 penny nail am pocking it with heretofore unseen dimple clusters. Now it’s non-conforming? Oh no! What’s a poor, unproperly dimpled westerner to do? Time to remember the rule: “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors balls, nor his cup-faced irons, nor his fourteenth driver released by that company this year . . .” Believe me . . . in just about all our cases it’s NOT the ball!

   I have used the older Cross Eight Mizuno balls occasionally, and those were really good, excellent performance/feel

   You’ll be able to get them in the U.S. as long as you’re willing to pay a premium for them on ebay.

      Wait ill next year when they launch their new ball which uses their hyper super micro tri-dimples technology. The design was created by working closely with the Fukuoka Institute of Technology in Japan, the company said.

      Obviously didn’t read the article. They aren’t effective on higher ball speeds so they are pretty much redundant to better players. Hence part of the JPX brand rather than MP.

        And you obviously mis-interpreted the the article… They have little effect at IMPACT, but take effect as the ball starts to slow down and descends.

        “The micro-dimples have little effect at higher ball speeds generated at impact,” said Masashi Tamakoshi, head of golf ball development for Mizuno. “However as the ball peaks and slows, they start to take effect. By stalling the descent phase just a fraction, we were able to increase the JPX’s overall airtime.”
