I havent played them yet..but ive been hearing big things about them...I hear they are very soft ...i am anticipating trying them soon along with the HX Hot Bite that is supposed to be a sleeper..

"People think the size of the head is most important. Wrong. It's getting a quality shaft. test different shafts to see which goes the straightest. Also, more degrees of loft on the head is better than less. Eleven degrees is about right."

tried the 'hx hot bite' on sunday, seems a little softer than my curent ball prostaff 360, but didn't notice any huge diffferences in spin with my cg14 wedges. with a full shot onto green, it would bounce once than roll about 1 foot forward. picked up a dozen for 44 aus dollars i.e. about 40 us. keep in mind most golf stuff is more expensive in aus than us.

I haven't hit the course yet this season but I am hearing that the Tour ix is having durability issues. Apparently spins just as well as the Pro V1 but is not as durable.

The Callaway scuffs up way yo much. I am using a pro v1 at the moment and the Callaway would compare to the pro V1 in my eyes.

Saying that they scuff up so i am going to stick with the pro V1.

So unless you really want to keep buying dozen after dozen for the callaway's dont both

Ive tried these balls in 3 rounds - changing every 9 holes
but did not like them one bit (i was coming from Wilson Staff Tx4), they seemed to have goof control around the greens, but felt too light when struck and did not have as good as distance as other balls i have played with (Pro V1 etc.)
