Summary:
I found this ball to be hard. It rolled a lot, whichis Great in the fairway, but not good when I tried to get it to stick on the greens.
This ball did not have a good feel off my wedges and was hard off the putter.
I did get a sleeve for free from a magazine subscription, so I did not purchase them.
I would play this ball as a last resort.

Summary:
Not a bad ball. Its launchs off the driver nice and long too. Its not too bad with the irons either but the nxt tour is much better. So for the same price go for the nxt tour

Summary:
I'm a huge fan of Callaway products, and the HX Hot is one of many great products they provide. For me, this one is absolutely the longest ball I have every played, but on the down side, not much control on the short game. If you're a player who likes to spin the ball and back it up, this one is probably not for you, but if you prefer to roll it up to the pin, this ball might not be a bad choice. I've got them to stick on the green, but the ball is designed to reduce spin off the driver, and not for short game control. If you grip and rip for distance, give this one a shot. If you can work the ball or like more spin on the approach shots, try the HX tour or 56 instead. In scramble outings, I like to use this ball to put some extra distance on my drives.

Overall, a resonably priced ball with awesome distance and good durability, but limited short game performance for better players.
