Description The technologically advanced Tour ix Golf Ball featured 4-piece inertia technology and dual core construction designed to optimize distance. The ball's high-density outer core moves weight away from the center of the ball for increased moment of inertia (MOI) resulting in reduced driver spin for increased distance and accuracy. The ball's dual core construction allows for great distance off the tee while still offering spin around the green. The lower compression inner core provides low spin off the driver for great distance while the higher compression outer core provides high chip-shot spin.
Summary: une balle parfaite pour moi, plus de distance et de controle sur la drive et les longs fer et hybride, ainsi qun controle autour des verts avec wedge 52 degre, cette balle me donne confiance sur le tee off tres important pcq le jeu est mental ,

Summary: 10 hdcp. I was on a mission to find the perfect ball for my game. This ball for my game is better than the new Prov-1X when it comes to the short game. Perfect chipping ball. I holed more putts also with this ball. It has just the right amount of spin for the courses I play. It has the distance of a harder two piece ball also but it's softer,It took me a while to decide on this one but now they discontinued it. So I went to Dicks S.G. and got six dozen. The new iZ is firmer and does not check up as much on the short game but is a little longer.
Customer Service: Callaway is the industry standard.

Model Reviewed: callaway tour ix
Summary: Very long. Very wind resistant and harder to draw or fade than most balls. Played one ball for 72 holes, and although a bit scuffed, still performed well. Feel is subjective, but not soft. Did I say long? Off driver and 3 wood it is longer than most two piece balls for someone who has club head speed. Off the irons it's just consistent. Pro V1x is a close second, but it's more expensive, less durable and is more influenced by lateral driver spin.
Customer Service: Not needed.

Summary: Used these balls last week and found them disappointing! i couldnt get the spin i wanted And they have a firm feel! liked the tour i's a lot better!

Summary: I'm am 57 year old 8 hdcp that lives in Las Vegas (hard greens) with a 95 mph Driver SS and this is plain and simple the best ball on the market for me. It flies higher & longer than the i model, goes longer than the ProV and has enough spin to hold a green with my 4 iron and drop and stop with a 9-iron.
Durability? I can easily get 2 rounds out of a ball when I keep it out of the rocky, gravelly desert and off the cart paths (a marked improvement over the older Callaway Tour models). I actually played 4 rounds with one once with no noticeable loss of performance, though the paint was getting a bit worn looking...
Price? $40 a dozen for this superb product works out to about $1 a round more than a two-piece ball- about the same as a tip to the cart girl- and well worth the money to me, especially since now I'm taking the skins in my foursome instead of paying for them like I used to. If you play on soft greens, maybe you can play cheaper balls and have them stick just fine, I don't know. But here in the desert wedges that get 30 feet of bounce and roll don't cut it- I just have to play a urethane cover if I want to break 80.
I've shot personal bests on 4 different courses this year, had 3 eagles- my first ones in over three years- and lowered my index from 10.0 to 7.4- my lowest rating ever- since putting the Callaway Tour ix in my bag. I can't imagine anything improving on this design.
If you want control and reliable payback for good shots onto firm greens, a soaring flight off the driver and sweet feeling putts, grab a box and play this great ball- you deserve it!
If your two-piece Surlyn-covered rock lands next to the pin and kangaroos into the bunker behind the green, don't come crying to me- I'm putting for birdie.
