Can someone compare Callaway Tour i(s) to ProV1?

[I AM PRO V1]

Can some compare he Callaway Tour i(s) and Titleist ProV1 in terms of: Price: Distance: Spin(greenside and iron): Feel: Opinion of better ball for warm spring and summer tournament ball: My SS is 98 mph and i have a low trajectory.

They are both good balls with similar feel. I get more green side spin with the Pro V1. Distance off the tee is similar. Feel off the irons is similar. Overall, these balls got more in common than different. I used some Callaway Hex Chrome balls this week. Exceptional ball and I would suggest you try a sleeve of them for comparison. I like them better than the Tour i (s). Perhaps better than the Pro V1, but more time using the ball will be needed to know for sure. The Chrome is going to be a hot seller I am sure. The Hex Black has even more spin, but I like the softer feel of the Chrome and it suits my swing speed better. The black is better for faster swing speeds as I am told. To me, trajectory was similar, but the ball felt harder than the chrome. Couldn't tell much difference on spin, but that could be a reflection of my swing. Another great ball I used lately, the Titlelist NXT Tour S. Fantastic ball for guys that prefer the softer balls. Many great choices out there.

IMO, its every bit as good as the Pro V1.  In terms of performance Id say they almost identical.

I am a fan of the Callaway Tour i series.  For me, it seems to "pop" off my club (esp the Driver) with a better sound and feel then the Pro V1

Question:  Is the Hex going to replace the Tour i?

That's what I thought as well.

Probably.   If you go to Callaway's website, they list the following balls:   Hex Black, Hex Chrome,  HX Diablo Tour, HX Diablo, Solaire, Warbird Plus.   There aren't any versions of the Tour i series balls on there.    You can still get the Tour i(s) on Callaway Pre-owned though and they are listed as new.

Those are my thoughts as well.  And since I can generally find the Tour i(s) cheaper than Prov1s, and less people play them, it is my ball of choice.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I just tryed the I(s) today and they might be a little to spinny for me on my wedge shots.. I had a 54° back up 15 ft. Other than that, they are great!
