I love your ball but can only play the ones that I find. Unfortunatly I am in the $20 dollar bracket for balls. But I will just keep on looking for you though.

A friend gave me one to try and i hit it close to 30 yds longer...that is true accomplishment as I am considered "Freaky Long" in any circle (I hit 2 drives Fri right at 376 yds here in So.Fl with the PRO V1x) and this TP RED ball drilled through the air with a lower stronger trajectory, which I prefer...especially in the wind here in SO FL coming off the water, so those drive could have been on the green instead of 20 yds short.
I also have never researched or looked into a golf product over the 42 years I have been playing, I go by feel and now play the Tour X20 Irons..so I must be impressed and wanted to make sure I got the right one.
What does it cost to have the Pro treatment in Carlsbad to get club fittings like the PROS? I'm still hitting the Nike 410 Driver and a Cleveland Classic 17 degree and would love to upgrade but a trip to Carlsbad might be pushing the budget form So Fla.

Look, having Sergio as a spokesperson is bad enough...always badmouthing Tiger makes him a jerk and a spoiled twenty-something...he's a loser personality-wise and so will the TP balls as long as he's your main spokeperson. Yes, I will try the balls but if they're only marginally better than Titleist Pro V1's then forget it. If the price of the ball is as you have suggested $55...who would think of switching for that price? It'll be cost prohibitive to the good golfer-based players you need to consider. That's my view...but, I will definitely give them a try...have tried them all and ProV1's so far rule the roost.

i have always used the pro v1 x , due to its lower spin rate than the pro v1, as some of you may know it can be quite annoying when you have a sandwedge going stright at the pin and .... oh no ! its zipped stright off the green . but hopefully the tp red will not spin as much as the pro v1 .

Sergio went up in flames in the final round of the British Open. So much for the TP. In my youth TP stood for toilet paper. Taylormade may want to rethink this. I predict this is going to be another failed attempt bt Taylormade at getting into the ball market. The big three are Titleist, Callaway and Nike. The rest are fighting over crumbs.

Titleist rules the premium golf ball world...and for good reason...they have the best products because they have the best R & D, marketing and management. This may be a decent ball (Dean Snell learned how to make golf balls at Titleist)...but the Pro-V and Pro-Vx's are such high performing balls that even Titleist is challanged as how to improve upon them!

A challenger to the throne that Titleist built? TaylorMade, surprisingly, has more than this: they have a potential successor.

TaylorMade updates the "TP" irons with what's best described as "tradition meets technology." The RAC MB TPs are a winner.

Ben, I think that would like kinda tacky, personally. It'd probably have to be way too large to be clear enough to see the detail, too. Too big for a ball, anyway.
