I normally play the ProV1X. I was given a dozen Nike One Tour (Red box) and I was wondering how the two compared just so I had some idea what to except when I put them in play for the first time.

I played both today and I really liked the Nike ball. The titleist was too much for me and had too much sidespin for my driver and such. The Nike worked pretty good for me and it had a scuff on one side of it. I liked it a lot and it worked great getting on the green and sticking pretty well.

If this chart is to be believed, there's not much difference...at least with the wedges. http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-equip...alls_spinchart

I don't think so. Here's a link to the main article: http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-equip...2010-golfballs

Rudy,
How does the driver distance compare for you? How does the One Tour compare to the One Tour D?

Well, one is the number one ball in golf (Titleist), and the other isn't (Nike)

One will leave you close to the pin for birdie (Titleist), the other will leave you somewhere OB (Nike) One will drive 290+ yards down the center of the fairway on an easy swing (Titleist), The other would be lucky to drive pass the ladies tees (Nike) One has won more majors and tournaments than all others combined (Titleist), the other is played by a washed up has been golfer (Nike) So there you have it, but seriously both balls are about the same, and since you're not a pro you won't be able to tell the difference, so have fun playing both and enjoy your round

Rudy,

I haven't played the newest Pro V1x as much as the Nike balls, but for me driving distance was very similar among all three. If forced to rank all three for distance I would say One Tour D, Pro V1x, One Tour from longest go shortest. Same order for driver spin, least to most.

If I were ranking wedge spin and putter softness, I'd say One Tour, Pro V1x, One Tour D, from most to least. I prefer the Pro V1x here. It feels ever so slightly less "clicky" than the Nike balls, without being mushy. Really hard to describe.

Probably not to be believed.

My reasoning? The prov1x has a higher spin rate than the prov1. We all know titleist markets the prov1 as a higher spinning ball. Not to mention anyone who has even tried both the balls. They are very very different as far as spin and feel go. Must be wrong.

Best 9 holes: 35 (Trilogy at Redmond Ridge, 3163y, Par 35/70, 70.0/131)
Best 18: [b]77[b] (Palm Valley CC, 6545y, 71.4/126)
Notable career achievement: I have NEVER four-putt.

It's true, you're not a professional golfer, and I wasn't trying to be rude

I seriously doubt that you can, when known professional golfers cannot

    • Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
    • Right. The difference between being 120 out and 70 out for me (this is the important part) is negligible and not worth putting other risks into play off the tee.   Ok the argument against driver is that my shot cone is comically large. It puts every possible outcome into play. You can't see the green from the tee so there's a good chance I'd have to wait for it to clear which would slow down play. That's the third tee right in the middle of the firing range there. I really don't want to wait just to hit a terrible shot and I especially don't want to injure somebody. Yea I have no problem playing out of the rough short of the bunker if I'm just going to lay up short of the bunker, but I absolutely need to avoid flaring it right into the penalty area if I'm going to be laying up in the first place. As a general strategy I understand where you're coming from. But since we're specifically talking about me (this is a shot I'm going to have to hit on Saturday), I think the cost is fairly marginal. I hit the ball 8' closer on average from 50-100 than I do from 100-150 from the fairway and rough and the green success % difference is 4%. Bunker might as well be a penalty drop. Based on the data,  Here's my SG:A data compared to a 10: I honestly don't know how to use SG for decision making. That's why I was mostly looking at proximity to hole and green success rate for comparison. I mostly use SG as a way to track my progress. All good. Like I said, I appreciate the discussion. It makes me think. If I didn't want to see alternative/opposing viewpoints to my own I just wouldn't post anything. You should post it! In your own swing thread, of course. It's been a fun exercise.
    • Played my first 2024 round at Pierce Lake. Boomed my first drive down #10 fairway, then slowly slipped into mediocrity. 83 (69.6/131). The high point was going 2 of 4 on sand saves. My sand game is pretty marginal but today I must have discovered the secret for a couple hours.
    • day 34. Technique practice. Became too quick and outcome oriented. need to slow down and work on technique again. 
    • Day 534, April 18, 2024 Practice before lessons today. Priority piece. No sim this time. 🙂
