Titleist Tour Prestige Ball

[snowman0157]

Does anyone the story on this ball? How does it compare to other balls from Titleist. It is not shown on the Titleist website, so is this a new pro-line ball or a ball that will only be sold in big-bix stores (I understand it is being sold at Costco), but I saw it at GolfSmith also. Seems to be some confusion on this as there was a previous Titleist Tour Prestige ball years ago that was a wound ball construction with liquid center -- but this is a new product.

are you talking about these ?

I think they are just Titleist professionals with a new name and are being discontinued. Good ball, probably a little shorter than the prov-1 and not as durable. I played them for awhile and liked the ball I just spin them too much.

I don't know who these are geared towards, but I have found quite a few of these. I'm not even much of a ball hawker...

They are basically a 2-piece ball with the NXT Tour's Fusablend cover (a mix between the 3-piece NXT Tour and the 2-piece NXT Extreme).

nothing to look twice at...just a regular old ball with a premium ball makers name on it and a name brand premium. it's not even up there with the DT series. as far as a value ball, you're probably better off going with some top flight d2's...unless of course the titleist imprint makes you a better golfer.

they are an old style ball, the titliest tour prestige's were popular back in the mid-late 90's before the 3pieces came into effect. i believe payne stewart used it to win his US open. its a good ball, just an older model that titliest remanufactured then discontinued, that's why they are cheap right now. they really don't stack up to the 3piece balls but they are a good ball for the price now.

There are two different "Tour Prestige" balls that have been made by Titleist; one back 15-20 years ago that was similar in construction to the Tour Balata and Professional balls, and one that is now made by Titleist that is similar to the NXT series of balls. Again, this is NOT the wound, liquid-filled ball from a few decades ago.
