Westside Bear (Tournament)

The Westside Bear in Tournament plastic delivers this glidey, control-focused fairway driver in a premium blend known for its tacky grip and workable feel. Tournament plastic is slightly softer and more flexible than VIP, giving players enhanced touch and confident control—especially on wooded lines or finesse-driven fairway shots. This version tends to fly a bit less stable than VIP, making it easier to shape long, drifting lines while still finishing with dependable fade. Flight Profile — 8 / 6 / -0.5 / 2.5 In Tournament plastic, the Bear offers a smooth, straight-to-stable flight with early glide, a hint of workable turn, and a reliable late fade. Thrown flat, it pushes straight before finishing on a controlled hyzer. On hyzer, it holds its angle and carries; on anhyzer, it tracks nicely before gently fighting out. The blend’s slightly grippier feel gives players added confidence on touchy release angles.
