advan038 Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Once again Gocchin thanks for the japanese translation and the review!! I must admit I am not Pro enough to "feel" the difference of performance by different balls yet, but surely this will become very useful as I progress. Keep up with the good work!
