Summary: The pro v1x golf ball is one of the best golf balls I have ever used. The golf ball provides tremendous back spin,and distance. It does depend on what golf club you use because I use a Nike spin velocity and that creates back spin and that also helps.

Summary: This ball is the only ball that any golfer should be touching. I know the other companys competing to make the best ball in golf, but they simply do not come close to the quality, time, technology, & science Of the ProV1x. Sometimes I will use the V1, but it doesnt have the command and control like the V1x has, due to the more spin-designed dimple pattern. Alot of todays amateurs dont know how to put consistent spin , or dont put any spin on their ball whatsoever. If you put intentional spin on every shot, and like to shape your spin shots, then the ProV1 is your ball. Now if you're like me and like to completely control the amount of backspin/spin on your ball & like to hit draws, fades, & shape your shots on all shots, then the LOW-SPIN ProV1x is perfect foe you!

Summary: I find this ball goes 10 yards shorter than the earlier ProV1X. I hit the older ball about 205 yards--the new one 195. I am 81 years old and a good golfer.

Summary: Clearly one of the best balls in the industry, 3-piece technology as good as it gets. Good distance off the tee, good control around the green. Feels nice though impact. If your using older clubs with U grooves on irons and wedges, be careful. They will shred the outside of the ball. My wedges scuff this outside up rather easily. For the new rule V grooves it is not as rough on the ball but may still be a problem for you.
Summary: I'm a 60 year old scratch golfer and I have a few things to get off my chest concerning Titleist. I see the new 2011s are out. Is Titleist now going to release a new golfball every year like they do with the clubs? These, no doubt, are designed around the use of v-grooved irons, and if struck with a square-grooved iron, they will shred, just like the previous models.
Titleist, nor anyone else, in my opinion, has ever made a ball longer than the original 332. If you're old enough, you remember the controversy soon after its release. It was retarded long and straight and extremely durable. However you had to adjust your game around the green because they were rock hard and were difficult to spin around the green. I was eager to try the new and improved 2008. That ball sucked. It was shorter off the tee than before, but it did spin a little better around the green. The trade off, however, for that spin was durability. 2 or 3 hard wedges, and the ball was too messed up to play, and if you hit a tree or cartpath, the ball was toast. The same can be said for the more recent ProV1X reincarnations--if you insist on playing with an undamaged ball, you have to pull out a new ball every 2 or 3 holes. Another complaint I have concerning durability (some would call obsolescence by design) is the tanning. I play at 7500 feet and a new ball will show tanning after 9 holes, if it makes it that long without becoming a FUBAR. I understand its the reaction of urethane to UV. For $50+ a dozen, they can't add some type of sunblock to the cover? No doubt Titleist makes the best ball in golf--the pros play them, but they don't pay for them. Because they are now playing v-grooved irons, they require a very soft cover. But for those of us that are still using square grooves, the new balls are a ball-a-hole wonders. I am not going to trade in my square-grooved Hogan Apex irons so as not to tear up my golf ball. I will be playing my Hogans long after they become illegal, and I have even insisted that I be buried with them. I have played Titlest balls for 2 decades, and the 2010 ProV1X since it came out, but I'm now determined to find a different ball. I want 18+ holes out of my ball, not 3. I found some original 332s on ebay. I guess this old-schooler needs an old-school ball to use with his old-school clubs.
Try the new Nike 20xi. More durable; just as long; spin just as well as ProV1x. Made in two models to match either one. Just as expensive though. But last a lot longer!
