Tried for the first time. Was currently using Maxfli Revolutions. Needed something to stop quicker, not only stopped but got 10-15 feet backspin consistently. Went right back and bought a dozen. Balls are soft and have a great feel for both putting and wedge shots. Be ready to go up one club as you sacrafice a bit of distance for accuracy and ball control.

Distance off tee - adequate... slightly less than distance balls (10 shorter than my Titleist Tour Distance 90, 15 shorter than Pinnacle Titanium Extreme) Iron accuracy and height - accuracy a plus with this ball. High spin even though I don't usually get much spin. Height is average considering I usually hit a low trajectory. Wedge spin - very very high. stops the ball on the spot (for me) Putting - soft feel. not too soft to take off distance, but more of a feel ball. good off inserts and steel alike Durability - very very low. scuffs alot when struck well with short irons and wedges. expect to use the ball for a practice ball after each round. Price - expensive for the quality. I got it for 5$ a sleeve but still pricy considering other good balls for cheaper (Wilson Smart-Core)

I'm really impressed with this ball. I fully expected it to play like a distance ball, and off the tee, it nearly does. Decent amount of spin of the short clubs and a nice click off the putter. Thumbs up for durablity too. I used one ball for a whole round before any noticable marks (slight) appeared.

Great distance,pretty soft feel,good spin,this ball spins like no other ball I have tried, as soon as it hits the green it takes a divot and stops, it's like throwing darts. If you have never tried these get out and buy a sleeve now you won't be dissapopinted.

This is a great ball for mid high handicappers. Great distance off the driver and probably 5-8 longer on the mid irons. Not as soft as the Tour Ultimate or Strata Tour Pro but I don't need the spin with my high fade shot anyways. Better choice than the Tour Pro and Ultimate 1 because the high spin rates of those balls make mis-hits go further into the woods. Alot of the benefits of the distance balls without the rock hard feel and better price than many of the other premium balls.

I gave up on Titleist NXT's due to the softish feel off my clubs and went to STRATA Professional Distance. I then gave up on them as I found them to be a little too hard. I then tried the STRATA Tour Ultimate and found them to be a reasonably good ball but the poor durability was a real problem. I was just about to try another brand when I saw the Tour Ultimate 2 on the shelf and bought a sleeve. After 1 round I went straight back to buy a dozen and 6 months later I have just bought another dozen (having only just "retired" the last one from the first box). The durability problem has been solved with the TU2 being a little more robust and the consequent extra firmness of the ball suits my game. I am consistently getting around the same distance as the NXT but with a better feel off the club. The short game has improved markedly with a better feeling ball around the greens. I would definitely recommend this ball to anyone looking for a good all-round ball despite the fact that the higher price tag may deter some golfers.
