Summary:
Picked up these balls as they are on special at 30/dzn.

I will like this ball it is very soft great ball flight and gets really good distance. Some time I get the drop and stop and on other shots the drop check roll.

Great ball though and on the closeout pricing worth the buy

The cover is really soft and I like the feel of irons and the putter.

It does seem to wear quick when hit with full wedge shots, but that can be said for most soft cover balls so it not really an issue for me.

The one thing I find odd is the conrol on swhort and chip shots. It is had to predict how the ball will react on the green for shot shorts and chips compared to the Prov1 and Nike Ones.

Summary:
I have played these balls to the last couple of weeks, and have been a litte disappointed. I am not sure what my swing speed is but I know it is not very fast. I usually hit a driver around 250-260 and with the tour 56 I lost approx. 20 yards off the box. In my opinion, not the ball for slower swing speeds.

Summary:
Great ball for mid to low handicapers. With low spin and great ball flight off the driver it has amazing distance and accuracy. Great for the short game, can suck 2-3 feet back from 65 yards, Pro V1 only a foot. WAAAAAAYYY more durable than the Tour 56.

Summary:
A really nice ball! One of the longest I've ever hit. Climbs very high and keeps going and going. NOTE: My recent swing speed analysis with the Bridgestone reps has me at 110mph, so you slower swing speed guys, 70-90mph, may get better distance with a two piece ball. Super soft cover. Great for putting. The only downfall is that it's cover now looks like the world globe! Islands of peeled off areas, BUT, it doesn't effect the ball flight. A strange ball indeed. If you see these cheap, well worth the money.

Summary:
It seems that every ball is compared to the Pro V; but in reality there are many others that are BETTER. These Callaways are soft, softer, softest. These are as long as many premium balls, but these grab the greens like velcro. I can stop these on a dime with a 5,7 wood or 5 iron and under. Coming out of a bunker or a 50yd pitch these dance. And the Lord knows I've tried just about all balls.
