DT Distance

Summary:
This ball is pretty awesome. I get great distance and accuracy out of this ball. I play forged blades and these balls still feel soft. I only wish if they can hold the greens better...

Summary:
Very nice balls. Long and straight. I'm getting 15-20 yards more than the Top Flite 2000 ES although these are doubled the price. Worth it though, putting is true and doesn't feel too hard. The disadvantage is that it doesn't hold the green very well but I think it' still better than the TF2000. Will use it as my everyday ball now.

Titleist DT Distance

Summary:
This is the best Titleist ball I have ever played with and the only one I would consider buying; I've tried the HP line, the other DT's, and the newer NXT distance, which I believe is meant to replace the DT Distance (but is a POS, no better than an $8/15 Intech). It flies very straight, goes as long as nearly anything I've played and is quite durable. I hit one tee shot with it on a 285 yard par four with a highly elevated tee box, and my 3W ended up a couple of yards short of the green, directly in front of the pin; chipped to three feet and made the birdie. I found one and played with it for around 25 holes (which is terrific for me - I rarely go 18 holes without losing a ball). I finally had to replace it after a slight fade got caught by a left-right wind and I hit a cart path, scuffing the ball pretty significantly.

It has a good feel, neither too hard nor too soft, and sounds nice ringing off the face of my driver. It chips and putts well, too. I would say it's slightly above average in holding the greens, better than a Pinnacle or Top Flight XL2000, but obviously has less spin than a balata ball.

A very good ball and it's a good value (I'm not going to call it a budget ball, as some other guys who shoot in the 90's do who "prefer" their Pro V-1's and A10's - talk about ridiculous - no high handicapper benefits in any way except in status in the eyes of shallow golfers by spending $30-50 on a dozen pro level balls).

Titleist DT Distance

Summary:
Great all-round ball. Straight, predictable, with all the spin that an 80's player really needs. Still prefer the Professional (when I can keep it on the fairway) for the feel. But I use the DT as my "everyday" ball.
