Bought a box of 12 and played them, I must say I was not impressed, appeared to lack distance off the tee when struck well. Anyone else play this ball? Your thoughts / opinions?

I used to play them. I now play the Snell MTB Black. The TruSoft is bout the same off the tee as about any ball distance-wise. Short iron spin is where you see the difference supposedly. I actually hit shorter irons/wedges farther with the TruSoft as it does not spin as much and will carry farther on say a sand wedge than a ball designed to perform around the green.

I played a couple rounds with the Trusoft earlier this summer and really liked them.  I find them to be a very soft feeling ball and still have decent spin on full shots.  On partial shots, they are no different than any other distance ball.

I play the Velocity now because I feel it gives me a bit more distance while still having enough spin on full shots to hold the greens.  I also like that you can get them in orange.  With so many people playing Titleist balls, I find it easier to identify my ball when its not a white Titleist.

I'm playing with these, but aside from range balls, I can't tell the difference between anything. Currently playing with 6i and shorter and these seem durable enough. The ball stops and sometimes comes back a bit on 8i and shorter. Since I don't drive, I have no opinion on distance.

I compared it with ProV1 before I changed it for the ProV1.
Off the tee it carries 10 yards less than the ProV1, but rolls more depending on fairway conditions.
In mid iron it carries the same and rolls almost the same.
In full wedges it carries 5 yards more than the proV1 but don´t spin back like a proV1, it just stay besides the pitch mark. It have also a higher trayectory.
Around the green it spin less with a higher trayectory also.
Both feel the same while putting.

Well, the soft ones are supposed to trade distance for accuracy.  The Titleist guys themselves will tell yo the same. The Pro V1 and V1x (I do not know the difference between the two actually) are $4/ball because they claim to not have to make that trade-off.  They claim to do both, length when you want it and not roll off the green.

I’ve been using nothing but the trusoft since 2016. Actually just bought some TP5x Taylor Mades to take out and try tomorrow tho. I’ve read the trusoft is better for a slower swing speed and I rip a driver 103-105 on average. The TP5x is supposed to be a good fit. Guess I’ll see. I’ve been very happy with the trusoft over the years tho personally.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
