What is different
Four things change between them. Pick one to look closer.
Carbon against fibreglass: the Lady Advanced Series's carbon is stiffer and more precise, the Advanced Hard's fibreglass is softer, gives the ball more pop at low speed and forgives more.
Edge: the Lady Advanced Series, for precision
* The feel starts from the core's rated hardness (estimated from the core material where there is no rating), then the face: carbon 12K and up is firmer, fibreglass softer.
About the same weight: 355 to 365 g and 360 g.
No edge either way
The balance point is not listed for both.
No edge either way
