Pro v1 x-outs

[Packerfan]

I just picked up a box of pro v1 x-outs from my local dick's sporting goods. They were $29.99. I've played them in the past and have had really good results. Anyone else try these?

Yeah I get them sometimes at the beginning of the year when I start playing again from a winter layoff just to play around with. They're good balls and generally nothing wrong with them. I haven't noticed any differences anyway.

I play them and love them. Prov1 for nxt price. Can't beat them. No difference I can tell.

I just bought a box of them last night, looking forward to playing them tomorrow.

I would think an X'd out ProV1 is still better than most other manufacturers perfect balls.

[dpmille]

just a general questions, but what makes them x-out balls?

[Leftygolfer]

Cosmetic stuff according to TGW. I actually buy the practice ones and they are the same as the X outs.

I have a hard time finding what is wrong with the ball except that it says practice. I have noticed no difference in performance.

X-Outs and Practice balls are functionally identical to the full price balls. The X-outs usually have a cosmetic defect of some kind, the logo in the wrong place or ink missing. Sometimes they have malformed dimples or anomalies in the cover. Practice balls are similar, and I have heard the only difference with practice balls compared to the production golf balls is the weight and initial velocity. If they are too heavy or have an initial velocity that is higher than the USGA permits, they simply stamp "PRACTICE" on them and give them out to the tour players to hit at the range.
