You know its funny, when I find a ProV1 on the course in a yard or something, its like finding a jewel. Ill put my NXT or DT Carry in the bag and hit the ProV1. My buddy and I had similar lies close to each other so I joked and said "lets have a chipping contest" Obviously we were in our round so we only had one shot each. He had to chip to the fringe and let the ball roll out, while I could chip to 3 feet from the pin and have it check at 9 inches. The look on his face was great. Its amazing how much of a difference a ball can make.

That is exactly what i needed. Thanks

They will wear out with heavy use. My Nikes (made from the same low carbon steel) have some wear on the center of the clubfaces, but nothing serious yet. If you practice a lot, like 100 or more full swings a day (I hit more than 100 a day), they will last a few years at least.

I have hit both of these balls, not really knowing the difference between them. Not sure if it was just how i was swinging on the particular day that I was hitting each but I liked the X the best because it seemed like I could control the flight better.

No, that's quite a fair assessment. The V1x spins a little bit less, so it's easier to exaggerate something different int he swing to move it, where as the V1 is more likely to go too far, or be too sensitive.

I agree spitz20. They are totally different balls. Before trying either ball I did'nt know anything about either. After trying both I could definately tell a difference. Sorry if you mis-understood me.

    • Ahh the old classic "nobody agrees with me so I don't want to talk about it anymore"
    • @anaveragehacker, you’ve been ignorant this whole time and now you’re being disrespectful. Not a great combo. You asked what the rules were and we told you. You complained about them and we told you why they were the way they are. The “who is the committee?” Question has been answered a few times. Dave and I are Rules Officials and the other people replying know the rules far better than you, so the fact that we are all disagreeing with you should say something. this thread is going nowhere and your original question has been answered several times.
    • What is this committee I keep hearing about? We’re a small league playing at a county course. And these are temporary issues that may be gone in a day or two. In any case, I wish more people agreed with me. It seems that trying to convince golfers to modernize rules is like trying to change the Bible. You guys are so serious it kind of proves my point. Other sports make adjustments for  field conditions etc during lower level play. This isn’t life and death here, it’s sport. No need to keep arguing. I have my opinion and you have yours.
    • Yeah, I agree that some of the charts are hard to make sense of. That short game chart is showing how often a short game shot ends up within a certain distance. The orange bar is all shots, the green bar is for shots within 25 yards, and the blue bar is for shots between 25 and 50 yards. I just play around with all of it and will figure it out. I would suggest just diving in and see what jumps out and work on that.
    • PGA Tour players weight shift to their lead foot way sooner and to a higher % than amateur. I would say it is something like close to 90% lead foot at impact for PGA Tour player. For Amateurs it could be under 50%. You need to get the weight transfer over more and sooner. You can't rely on the feeling of finishing on the lead foot as validation you did so.
