Is the new Pro V1x in stores yet?

Hey fellow sand trappers,

I just have a really quick question regarding the new Titleist Pro V1/x. A friend of my dad is gonna be in Houston next week and will pop by Edwinn Watts to buy a couple of things. I've asked me to buy me a dozen balls. Anyone know whether these are out in stores yet? It'd be great to hear from someone who's seen them at Edwinn Watts already.

Thanks,

andef

I work in a Pro Shop and I had just recently talked to my boss and I believe he said the new ones were shipping Mid-February. I highly doubt that they will be on the shelves until then. Since our shop is a licensed Titleist dealer, I don't see anyone getting them any sooner, nor would I believe they would be happy if we sold the prototypes that we were sent for trial, they were only a few sleeves in any event. Since they wont ship for another 2 or 3 weeks, it could be about a month or so before you start seeing them on shelves, and retailers are going to try and blast through their old supply before they put them on the shelves and most likely drop the price on last years model.

I've been looking into it intently because I have seen pictures online somewhere what the new marking on the side will be, the prototypes we recieved just said "Test" where the PRO-V stuff was.

Thanks for the response. I'm just wondering about it seeing as the 2011 ball range has been updated on the Titleist website.

I do hope you are wrong though and that I'll be able to get them next week, although it sounds unlikely :(

I just got an email from Golfsmith that they now have the new Prov1/x in stock.  Not sure if they are in stores yet, but you can order them off the GS website.
