Depends on the model of the TP5x you are playing. The 2019 version was more in the category of a Left Dash, but the new 2021 version of the TP5x was softened to add some spin and feel making it less like the TP5x. The high launch low spin ball space has some great current options including the Left Dash, Chrome Soft X LS, and Bridgestone B X.

I was enamored with the 2019 version. It cuts the wind very well, which is a consideration here. The new TP5x I do not like as much and I consider the left dash to be what the 2019 TP5x was. I have no idea why companies take winning formulas and change them to something that I think is pretty different. Chevelle and PMookie 2 Quote Shoot 'em straight Link to comment

lasorcier Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) Makes sense. Those guys need to have an event in a high-wind environment. Anywhere on the frontier strip will do - TX, OK, KS, NE, WY, MT, SD etc. Are there any other good wind-cutting balls out there? For me that is of primary consideration. I have been cleaning GG out of them (left dashes), just because i know companies can't help themselves when it comes to tinkering and I'll be glad I had a supply of them.
