I bought 20 each lakeballs of ProV1, Chrome Soft and TM Tour Preferred to compare. I feel little difference between Cally and TM balls, but don't like the feel of the ProV: too hard off the driver face for my liking. Driver carry circa 220. Like them all for the short game. Will probably stick to Chrome Soft as best value.

I've been enjoying the new Bridgestone balls. I don't buy into the whole fitting balls for swing speed and I find the B330RX-S work best for me even though I swing around 110-112 on average. Great balls, good amounts of spin, and 20$ cheaper than Prov1s

The B330Rx-S are $29.99 and the prov1s are $47.99.

I think you're comparing prices on 2015Β B330-RXS with 2016 Pro V1. Β The new and "improved"Β B330-RXS go for $40

Pro Vs

I find lots of balls in the woods

The one I find the most of is Pro Vs

I think they have a large chunk of the market

Gave the Bridgestone e5 another shot. Last trial was the 2012 model which performed great but felt like a brick. Bought some after a live chat with a rep on Bridgestones website. They dropped the compression to around 75. Feels great, high launch, great approach and greenside spin. Feels good off the putter. Balls dont roll off green on me anymore, and my scores are coming down so after three rounds with it, I bought four dozen.

I don't typically like to do these things, but if anyone wants to get a free sleeve of the project {a} golf balls you can use this link. Full disclosure, it gives me a free sleeve for the first 4 people who use it also.

Fantastic. I did get an email this week from Taylormade letting me know that they were backed up due to a large response in the promotion. Who'd have thought they'd get so many people signing up for free golf balls right, rofl. Happy to know that people are getting their sleeves.

I use the ProV1x. I'm not even sure why other than i know what it does. I know I don't use the ProV because I spin it too much for my liking. I haven't usedΒ one in years, so maybe they're more durable now,Β but i used to chew up the coversΒ more on regular ProVs more than I didΒ the 1x.Β

    • Imma throw a dart in the dark as no one can tell what is happening once every fourth iron shot per your OP. This might sound counterintuitive but if ball position is too far back in the stance folks are known to throw down clubhead steeply. Could be happening. And yes, @billchaois not wrong; clubhead tends to bottom out wherever your pressure is. So slide forward (not sway), then hit.
