Titleist Pro V1 / Pro V1x golf balls
Titleist Pro V1 / Pro V1x golf balls reviews

As with the 2009 models of the Pro V1 and Pro V1x, it must be extremely difficult to change a ball that is already the choice of many of the best golfers around the world. The original Pro V1 really did change the game in a way that no other ball will ever do again. The dimple design has been modified slightly this time round, and produced noticeably more check on chip and pitch shots. The slightly higher flight offered by the Pro V1x will broaden its appeal to more golfers. For all-round performance levels both balls are up there with the very best. Dedicated Pro V1 users won't see a huge difference, but there is enough added spin on offer to justify a new release. Price will be an issue for some. PGA Pro verdict Improving a top product is always tough, but Titleist has done it. The Pro V1 gave me exceptional spin around the green and added distance from the tee. I was at least 5-10 yards longer. The Pro V1x gave me slightly less height on my long game with lower spin, although it was a tough call to feel the difference around the green. I noticed an improved durability, which everyone will appreciate (John Jacobs).
