Do you know why the price dropped? I work at a Sports Authority, but none of us seem to know.

Every other company seems to drop prices once next years model comes out, I have not golfed long enough to say whether or not titleist has dropped ball prices in the past. With the current economic conditions - all golf related companies have taken a beating - this could also be a result of that.

I've been buying Pro V1 "PRACTICE" from Golf Discount for $25.00 a dozen. At that price I think they're totally worth it even for a beginner like me. Even though I can't spin a ball back, I do notice these stop on the green WAY sooner (sometimes immediately) than the Nike Powerflight (any of them) and the NXT Extreme/Tour. Since the practice balls are the same $$ as the NXT and they're considered "conforming" I think it's a pretty good deal if you don't mind a big ol' PRACTICE yelling up at you...

In the bag:
905R 9.5° - UST ProForce V2 65R
909F2 15.5° Titleist Diamana 75
909H 19° Titleist Diamana 80
Zing 2 3-PW Vokey SM48.08 @ 51° Vokey SM56.11 Unitized Leo

Also, none of these packages of Pro V1's have the red or black sticker on them that says they were manufactured after September, so does this mean once the new year hits, they won't be marketable?

They are worth the money. I play whatever high end ball I can get a deal on and when I buy I usually get 2 or 3 dozen which lasts me for months. Right now you can buy Calloway HXtour 56 balls for cheap and they are every bit as good as ProV1s. Another I have found for cheap that performs very well is the Nike TA2Spin. Distance is not an issue for me my main buying criteria for balls is spin and stopping power with approach shots. I buy the balls that spin the most for my money.

If I were beginning golf I would buy the least expensive golf balls that I could find.... Precept lady ball is under $8 and Costco sells a version of the Titleist ball, 2 dozen for $29.99.

As a beginner the Prov-1 are not worth the money.

    • Day 238: played 18. Back 9 was pretty good after a rough front 9. Then worked a bit after the round at the range, just firming up some feels. 
    • Day 6 (15 Mar 25) - Played in local course’s 2man captain’s choice St Patrick’s Day tournament.  Great day of working closely with my teammate on course management process.  
    • Certainly BUY used so many near new Drivers in Good condition that will suit ...which IMHO the shaft is the most important part if you want to buy new get a shaft new that suits you then find the head you like the feel off 
    • I found being part of a Great Golf Club renewed my love for the game and comps ..previously at my other club I was just a player with novice player mates or solo .and that was hard to progress and drive the passion when my job was very restrictive to playing in good weather and friends couldn't play as much...  that become a grind at times and gave up the game for couple years..but now work for myself and have clear goals and new GC with serious players ongoing comps and great course I can pretty much always get on .. some great Golfing friends I made playing in the weekly comps ..I'm loving it..  Still get down on my game and can walk off gutted ..but thats the game we wouldn't love the good round if we never had bad rounds So for me maybe dropping the pressure of the HC grind and more so enjoy playing comps with others serious on the game ...understand the game is hard ,enjoy the good times and your game will develop ... 
    • Big week of Golf nursing golfing elbow ....played local amazing course Arrowtown tuesday ..had a tidy 81 for what I felt wasn't my best Golf in some wet windy conditions found the greens tough to read and gave away many shots... three birdies Played my local GC wed STB mens comp... very rough whole game not happy 89 just felt tired made so many mistakes max 4-holes I played well the rest rubbish to woeful ... Friday played south of my local Alexandra in a 4ball with my mates (we have a comp same partners over the year) played pretty well after not even hitting my 3wood past the ladies tee on the 1st hole ...very slow greens to what I usually played so we made gimmes within 2ft ,,,, couple birdies .. Wasn't going play ..but wife wasn't stressed so joined into the SAT Medal comp ..teed off early .. had some brilliant holes and shots some of my best .. birdied 3x ..78 for the day gave me a 7th in SNR division. putting let me down had a 4x putt on 3rd hole PAR3 ... along with 6+ three putts ... what could have been  Now looking over the above I'm sure many thinking go sort ya putting ya idot .. but couple weeks previously I played three comps .. out of those three I only had one 3x putt my best 24 putts over a round  ... but my driver off the tee was rubbish ..
