In late 2010 my friend switched from Srixon to Titleist Prov1x. My friend was such a die hard Srixon man that the vanity plate on his car said Srixon. He has been bugging me to at least try a Pro v golf ball. I always refused. I did not want to be like the majority of people we play with and did not think that it would make THAT MUCH difference from the others. Finally on July 6, 2011 at the recommendation of a golf pro at my local Edwin Watts I decided to try the Pro v1. My normal putter had to be shipped to themanufacturer for 3 weeks because of a defect so I even had to use a putter that I had only used one other time. It was a Scotty Cameron that I got a deal on that I could not refuse and was gathering dust in my garage. I normally shoot anywhere from 86 – 93. On this day though using a ball that I have NEVER used and a putter that I have only used 1 other time, I shot a 76. It would have been a 74 but I hit 2 terrible shots with my Gap wedge. 2 of my wedges are Vokeys which I absolutely love and the 3rd one, you guessed it, is not a Vokey. Guess what I will be purchasing promptly. I am now a believer in Titleist golf balls and can’t believe the difference in premium balls. Now I understand why it is the #1 ball in golf

I spent a number of hours testing a variety of premium golf balls. I had no preconceived notions going into the testing, I just wanted the ball that would perform the best for me. The Titleist ProV1x came out on top, this kind of surprised me, but I couldn't fault my results as my testing was quite rigorous and involved a number of variables.
The ProV1x is now the ball I play.

I have recently switched over from the old Pro V1x's to the new ones and have seen a difference in my game. I have dropped two strokes consistently. I am receiving more distance and more spin. A week ago I chipped in from 50 yards. It was a flop shot over a bunker kicked off the hill and rolled 20 feet into the hole.

WHERE MY PARTNER HIT MY PROV1x!!!!
During one night in my Tuesday League... the day's format was alternate shot. I just barely missed the fairway with my tee shot on the left side of a par 5 slightly dogleg left. I told my partner to hit our second shot back towards the fairway near the 150 yard marker. Needless to say he missed way right and put my "brand new-just out of the box ProV1x" under the tree (picture included). Which I had just to punch out... we lost the hole but managed to halve our match.

I ended up breaking 80 for the first time, at a course that I just so happen to play for the 2nd time. It was important for a few reasons... First was, this was the course that hooked me into golf so deep, that I'll never turn back. Cuscowilla golf club, a fantastic Coore and Crenshaw course. Secondly, it was a great round, with random guys out there enjoying their friday. It was also my last round as a single man, and I played it the weekend of my wedding, which was AT the club.
So I broke 80 for the first time, on my last round as a single man, the day before my wedding, and did it with a ProV1 #9.
Epic... We also gave out Custom #9 ProV'1s at the wedding on every table, and I had a Titleist bag grooms cake!
I know I already posted, but Saturday I had an eagle from 165 out. It was the perfect little draw, tracking all the way, that found it's way into the bottom of the cup. My Pro V "Giahotsauce" #7 just took one bounce, checked up, and trickled into the back pin.

Unlike most others it seems, I did not loose the first ball. Not that I am better than them, NO WAY. Just got lucky. I have one the shelf for keepers. Still have the other two. So to the test.
Feel was really good. Much softer off the club. Kind of a bit too soft, but I can get used to it. I found myself swinging easier cause of the feel. That improved the score I will guess. The increased spin is an issue for me. Had three spin off the green after landing behind the pin. Granted, I need to learn how to control that. Off the Tee, the added spin did make my natural draw aiming kind of a joke. It took five holes before I really got used that spin off the Tee. Made the dog legs a bit easier, I like that. The fast I can get a wedge in my hand the better. Speaking of wedges; the new ball did not cut as harshly. I did use an older ball and hit the same shot, and could see the difference in the cut surface of the ball. Putting. I had to move to the Blacked Out Laguna. My Newport was too heavy and I was pushing the ball past the hole. The softer feel, lighter putter, with the Marsh mellow feeling face, was money (Literally). I gave a couple skins back, but made up to it with closest to pin, and long drive. Thanks Team Titleist for the $190.00.

Hard work and dedication is finally paying off! Had a great day of golf. Titleist has the best gear in golf. Oh yeah, "Fear the white pants!"

I shot under par for the first time ever. I'm 70 years old and I play at the Gorham Country Club in Gorham Maine. Since changing to the Prov 1 my hold game has changed. I've always played Titleist just not the Prov's. I also had my second hole in one this year. Thanks Titleist i just might get my handicap to single digits and at my age that would be unbelieable. Thanks again Norm G. AKA Coach
