Taylormade TP5X vs Titleist 16' ProV1x Performance & Layers

[epsanche23 33]

Been gaming the Taylormade TP5X ball for about 2 months now and am really liking it a lot. Long off the tee with a good solid feel. Doesn't feel too hard and performs well.

 

Had been playing the 2016 ProV1x prior. We all know they feel great and green side control is amazing. Better than the Tp5x.

I wonder if the TP5 performs better on the greens.

 

Here's a look at the cores and inner layers of the two side by side. Pretty interesting.

The way Titleist did it this year I believe the 2017 Pro V1 is closer to the TP5x. Was a weird way to switch it

Yeah I thought the same thing. Odd strategy.

I have played both the TP5X & the TP5, and liked the TP5 more.

I'm fan of the TP5X. Like the feel off the irons and putter.

Really like their Spider putter a lot. It's between that and Odyssey O Works 2 Ball.

What do you like about the TP5 over X?

I'm had a few friends buy the Spider and have a lot of issues with it making the ball bounce. Seems the insert is very soft and grippy and doesn't like certain strokes.

I'd like to hear this as well for anyone who games the regular TP5 over the X

My brother games it and he loves the feel. It feels really nice. Only odd thing, it doesn't  sit flush on the ground like a blade. The toe kicks outward and you need to manually hold it square. Same with the Evnroll E6. O Works 2 Ball and other Scotty's I've tried sit square.

Lower flight driver to 6I and from 50 to 75 yards I can get to hop & stop.

The X just went to high.

Definitely need to give them a go as the X's do not check up enough.

Weird, I don't have any issues with the TP5x checking up for me.

I game the TP5 and honestly I love the soft top 3 covers the most. I have a relatively high swing speed (115) so you'd think the 5X would be for me. But I just like the softness and sound off the putter of the 5. It was a weird feeling having a different feeling with each group of clubs (putter, wedge, irons, drivers/woods) and once I got used to it I couldn't think of going back to the proV1.

 

Just a disclaimer. I'm a taylormade loyalist so my bias might be shine through here but they really have made a ball worth all the chatter it's getting.

Thanks for the pictures!

I hear the X is pretty amazing in the wind.

Anyone see any difference or the same the TP5?

[Miboy62 1,534]

The one problem I had with the TP5 X. Was how high it was off my driver.

I tried the TP5 yesterday and was sold after my round. I love the soft feel and the green side control over the X. In the bag!
