kovek Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Depends on my current swing speed and conditions. When I'm feeling good, I go for TP5x because of the swing speed, but any harder ball would work When I'm injured or I can't swing as fast, I use ProV1 because it gives me that extra spin, but again, even a True Feel would work in this case Indy_Oz 1 Quote Putter Cleveland Huntington Beach Soft 11 58 wedge (56 bended to 58) Ben Hogan Imperial 52 wedge Takomo Skyforger P-3 Titleist Forged 704.CB Hybrid Taylormade M6 3 Wood Taylormade M6 Driver Callaway Epic GBB Ball Taylormade TP5X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BryanVI Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 As a new golfer, I'm still trying different balls. But so far, I really like the Vice Pro and the PXG balls. They both seem to fly straighter and farther than others I've tried, but still stop well on the greens. Lefty11, Josh Parker and Indy_Oz 3 Quote New to Golf but experienced in Life!

10Hockey Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 I will always play Titleist Prov1x or dash when I am playing a serious round of golf.

Donn lost in San Diego Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Looks like the new Callaway Super Soft might be my ball. Just did some chipping and putting, really like it. Of course, new always rolls better than beat up whatevers. Next round of golf will try them. Swing spd 83 m.p.h. Boom boom, not. Bim bim, maybe. I like the pink supsoft color around and on the green.

Daca1442 Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Playing around Toronto the season is reasonably long (April to early December) but the temperatures vary markedly. With my mid speed swing, my ‘shoulder season’ ball is Titleist AVX and Vice Pro. My warm weather ‘regular season’ ball is Vice Pro Plus and Pro V1. These Vice and Titleist balls work really well for me.

mjs5 Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Most of the last few years, I've been playing ProV1 with AVX sprinkled in. Second half of last year, went to ProV1x; loved everything but a miss-hit with the driver. Switched to ProV1x Left Dash this year and won't go back. The ball launches; feel like I've gained half a club or more with better dispersion control. The only thing I miss about the ProV1x is the control/stopping power around the greens. Around the greens have taken a little time to get used to, but won't go back. Quote Consistently inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlhume Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Vice Pro. Did some home testing on my Rapsodo MLM2PRO. The Vice Pro and Vice Pro Plus fit my swing, but I like the Pro b/c it feels softer than the Pro Plus and flies just as long. Since switching to Vice Pro I've shot my lowest rounds this year.

georgem Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I'm playing the Bridgestone Tour BX.... Second year with this ball after a considerable amount of exploration with other brands including the Maxfli Tour X. I use Ballnamic and input my dry test data from Trackman and much to my surprise the Tour BX was my top recommendation. My swing speed with driver at 70 years old is substantially below the 105 mph denoted by Bridgestone as appropriate but the BX performs better than any other ball I've tried.

JWE Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I’ve loved the Prov1X left dash for a few seasons. But this year for the first time ever I’ve needed something with more spin off the driver and irons so tried the regular ProV1X and have had good success. Just wish they weren’t so expensive.

Big moose Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I haven't made up my mind yet. I tried the bridgestone b rx, a titleist prov 1x, a prov 1, a tour soft, a taylor made tp5 and the tp5x. The thing that really makes it a hard decision is every time I try a different ball I have a really good round with it. I have even used every ball during a single round trying to see if one ball really stands out from the others, and I am still confused. Wish me luck. oldschoolcasto and William P 2 Quote Frank musolino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBaum Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 (edited) I started with Prov1, moved to Prov1x, wanted more spin around greens. Tried Maxfli Tour S and that was an excellent ball for certain courses, tried Vice pro, as good as Prov1x. Tried Snell 4 but didn't seem to get great distance for me. Cut Blu was a great ball for distance but ran off the green a lot. PGX was a great all around ball like the Maxfli but Maxfli held up better. Will be checking out Mizuno and Callaway on guy trip.
