dlow206 10,591 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I have a bunch of Snell MTB-X, TP5X Pix practice, Z-Stars, and then probably a dozen Top Flite Gamers. Using any other balls, a dozen doesn't last very long, but the Top Flite Gamers, for some reason I can't lose those if I tried lol. 2 2 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 11/13/2021 Driver: TSi 2 - Autoflex Fairway Woods: TSi2 3 wood, 5 wood - Aldila Ascent 60 S Irons: T300 5 to SW - LAGP AXS Red 85 Stiff double soft stepped Wedges: K-grind 2.0 58 wedge - Xcaliber RT Spin Wedge 100 Putter: SIK DW Armlock - LAGP 180 armlock shaft Link to comment
ParFore74x 1,088 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I was enjoying my surprise progress at the end of last season while playing the ProV1X so I will try to pick up where I left off there. Short game was getting really consistent. 2 Quote ST-Z w/ Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX 6.0 60g TS2 3W w/ Project HZRDUS Smoke Black 6.0 70g JPX 921 HM 4-GW w/ Project X LZ 5.5 115g MD3 56 & 60 Anser 2 TP5 Link to comment

Yes, the ball test and comments on here got me to try them. 19 hours ago, DiscipleofPenick said: That's the reason I want to test them. Though I've got dozens of balls already so I may wait for the test of the Black as well and purchase the mixed pack they sell.

Watchnut33 82 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I have about 3 dozen Titleist Tour Speeds to play, but I tend to lose 2-3 balls a round (bad days might be double that) so those will only last a dozen ish rounds. I ordered 2 dozen Oncore Elixir after a friend recommended them and after the MGS golf lab compared them to the Tour Speeds, but they seem to be lost in transit and Oncore hasn’t been very helpful in figuring out where they are. If they ever show up I’ll compare the two and play one or the other this year. 2 Quote Ping G410+, 9* with draw bias weight setting, 55g Alta CB stiff shaft Taylormade Burner 3w, stiff shaft Mizuno JPX919 Hot Metal 4-GW, regular flex Cleveland CBX2 54* wedge Cleveland Smart Sole 58* wedge Ping Scottsdale Piper C putter Titleist Tour Speed balls Link to comment

dlow206 10,591 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Lost my lucky Top Flite Gamer ball today Hit a driver that was not OB, but landed in a giant mud pit. Its an area that they recently tore down some trees and are in-process of repairing. Main reason I couldn't find my ball was because there were at least 20 balls partly visible in the mud pit and it wasn't worth checking everyone of them. 2 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 11/13/2021 Driver: TSi 2 - Autoflex Fairway Woods: TSi2 3 wood, 5 wood - Aldila Ascent 60 S Irons: T300 5 to SW - LAGP AXS Red 85 Stiff double soft stepped Wedges: K-grind 2.0 58 wedge - Xcaliber RT Spin Wedge 100 Putter: SIK DW Armlock - LAGP 180 armlock shaft Link to comment

JDHolmes 212 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 After reading the Pro V1 review here, I decided to splurge and bought a dozen of the new ones.Ive played found pro v'z before, never really that impressed.The new balls, however, have sold me. I've played tgem for two weeks now. Won my flight in a tournament Sunday. Spin on the greens is outstanding. Had 3 birdies Sunday and missed a 3 foot putt for the fourth. Had too much spin into one hole and backed it up 8 foot from a 4' close shot. I've had significant success with them in the 5 rounds Ive played. I will be buying the TP5's tomorrow to give them a shot also due to the review here. Sent from my SM-G950U using MyGolfSpy mobile app 2 Quote Link to comment
Snakster 18 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I have a bunch of Costco 3-piece and Callaway hex tour soft (also from Costco) sitting on the shelf to try this year. So let’s see, I have at least six dozen combined. Should get me through the first month.... Quote Link to comment
AmishJason 471 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I swapped from the Q Star Tour to the Z Star at the end of last year. It made a significant difference around the green, on approach shots, and short par 3s. For once I don't have the urge to try a different ball. 1 Quote Driver: Cobra Speedzone 10.5 Mitsubishi AV Blue S flex Wood: Cobra Bio Cell 3-4 Grafalloy Pro Launch Blue (low launch original version) S flex Hybrids: Taylormade GAPR 3 KBS graphite shaft Strata 4 and 5 hybrids R flex Irons: Strata 6-PW R flex Wedges: Texan Classics 52, 56, 60 R flex Putter: Odyssey Red Ball mallet Ball: Srixon Q Star Tour Link to comment
PMookie 17,027 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I was able to test the new Pro V1X bs the Left Dash yesterday while on the course. This new Pro V1X really does spin more on my approaches, with almost all of them backing-up some. The Left Dash seemed to be a little longer off the driver, usually around 3-5 yards, and it seemed to really get-up in the air off full wedges. It did not “suck back” at all on approaches, so there’s a definite difference in spin there. I’m just not sure that when I’m hitting iron shots that I need less spin since I have a pretty shallow impact. I definitely like to feel of the new Pro V1X better, so I’m still thinking Pro V1X for this year. 3-5 yards isn’t a ton off driver, and I think the little bit of extra spin will help keep me online a little better. 2 Quote Driver: King F9 Speedback/Epic Max LS, Xphlexxx Busa 2 Liquid, XX stiff, 45” Fwy: Epic Speed 4w, MMT 80X Hybrid: X2 Hot Pro, 20*, Graphite Design Tour AD-DI 105X Irons: TR20 Tour P 4-10, Modus 130 stiff, +1” Wedges: SMS 50D/54V/58DModus 130 stiff, +1” Putter: EAS 1.0 All but putter have Lamkin ST+2 Hybrid Calibrate midsize built to oversize +1 Link to comment
Micah T 1,443 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I thought I had settled on the MTB-X, then I picked up a box of -proV1X. The sound took a little bit to get used to, but I love the feel off the putter and driver. I haven’t noticed much loss of spin, but my wedges are brand new.

fozcycle 15,093 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Purchased 4 dozen of the Top Flite Gamers when MGS had a 40% off code. So far so good, I played them several years ago when they first came out. Gotta say they are just as long as the Pro V1x.
