Images of new Pro V1 balls as Titleist revamps franchise for 2015
The legendary Titleist Pro V1 golf ball franchise has been updated for 2015
One of golf's most iconic franchises has been updated with the introduction of 2015 Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls.
These new models are borne from unparalleled knowledge, research and development and technological advancements.
The Pro V1 golf ball first made an appearance at the 2000 Invensys Classic in Las Vegas.
Some 47 players put it in play that week - a huge paradigm shift - and it became the best-selling ball in golf in March 2001, just three months after its launch into the consumer marketplace.
