I don't think all balls marked from Titleist are ProV1s. They use a variety of player profiles to test each level of balls. Perhaps your friend got a sleeve of "test" nxt, or similar.

I also received a sleeve from Titleist to evaluate. Here is what they look like:



From the feel and playability, I believe these to be the next-gen ProV1. I haven't had enough shots to really evaluate them, although they feel great around the green and seem to spin quite a bit on approach shots within 160 yards.

I tested mine out this past week...probably wasn't the best conditions to do so, but alas....

I didn't find much difference between the test ball and the Pro V1x. In fact, I couldn't have told you which ball I just hit if I didn't know beforehand. The covers felt the same, the flight seemed to be the same....the feel might have been a LITTLE different(harder test ball than Pro V1x) but I can't quantify that. All in all, I didn't see much difference between the two.

I ended up donating all the three to the course though, brutally windy day at a tough tough place to play.

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
