There seems to be two things that are unattainable: a drinkable cabernet at every day prices (<$12/bottle) and a ball with low driver spin and spin and feel around the greens. Interestingly in my adult life, balls have increased in price 4 times faster than wine. At $19.99 a dozen, this ball was my latest experiment. It is a pretty soft feeling and pleasant to hit ball. I have a driver swing speed, launch monitor measured, of 103-108. I think I lost 10 yards with the Sumitomo Rubber (IXON?)compared to the HX Red. The Srixon felt great around the greens, but did not have insane spin like the late Titliest Tour Balata or original PRO V1. I got tired feeling like I needed to swing harder and took a new HX HOT out. It went at least 40 yards farther than I was hitting the Srix. I hope I can exchange the other 4 dozen I bought. I give it a 3 for value, because it does feel good, and most discount balls are rocks. But, I give it a 2 overall, because feel alone will not get your ball in the hole. It was noticably shorter. I completely flushed a couple of shots and got no reward. In fact, on one hole I came out of my first tee shot and it leaked short right. Then, I re-teed and killed one down the fairway. When we got there they were within 10 yards of each other in distance. I am not a short hitter, but I was beginning to feel like my ultimate decline was beginning prematurely (I am just short of 50 and my teenagers say it is coming any day now). This ball seemed to makes you 10-15 older. (Just kidding, I still want to hit it long when I'm 65).

I'm a prov1 player at least until about 60 days ago, tried the pro ur's and found them to be longer and better roll off the driver, they are just a little bit firmer than the v1 and I mean just a little. mid iron spin is really compairable and partial wedge and or sand wedge is slightly less but still one bounce and stop. An overview of this ball would be summed up as longer than v1, better off the driver, same mid irons, slightly less off wedges, putts same, so take the extra distance and less side spin, just a better ball than v1

Excellent golf ball. As a high quality golf ball, it has exceptional spin on chips and pitches. A very underrated ball. It pisses me off that no one can pronounce the name. Sometimes I ask people around me if they see where my ball is and i say im playing Srixon and they all say, "Wha..? Who?"

I was given 2 sleeves of these balls from the Srixon rep, i had heard from a co-worker that this was a solid ball. I hit them head to head with the HX red, ProV1, Hogan, and Utri-tour. The Pro UR was without a doubt dead last in performance in every aspect possible. It was short, hard, and didn't spin for crap. I promptly put them in my emergency ball stock, only to be used in emergency. Save your money, buy the Utri-tour, now there's a ball, at a good price even!

Very good ball. Longest premium ball I've hit. Great feel from the irons. Spins well on full shots, stops reasonably well on chips, and putts consistently. Good ball flight, great ball to use in wind. Has a resonably soft feel but not mushy like some top end balls. Cover reasonably durable but will scuff on short irons (What premium ball doesn't?). All in all a good all round ball for any level of golfer but may not spin enough on hard fast greens when chipping. Good value. Only other ball I've found that is comparable but better priced is UTRI-Extra Spin, which is also a great ball.
