Cutting open refurbished and refinished Prov1s

[nprotz]

So I cut a Prov1, a refurbished Prov1, and a refinished Prov1.  Is the refurbished one actually a Prov1 as it doesn’t have the extra core layer?

Interesting, I wonder if they just threw a layer of paint over it and restamped?

Aligns with what the MGS staff found and why they recommend not getting the refurbished and refinished balls.  No choice/knowledge on year of the ball and as you also found may not actually be the ball it is supposed to be.

Are all Prov1s 4 layers? Or did that make a 3 layer Prov?  I’ve always stayed away from those for exactly what you said.  Plus I can walk in the woods for an hour or so and find more than enough premium balls haha

ProV1 is 3 layer,  ProV1x is 4 layer.
