    I have been playing Last years model for a while, I just switched to the new ones a month ago , and loved them. Yesterday I found last years model new in my bag, so I played a few holes with both balls. I hit last years ball farther of the tee with a driver,and had a better flight, not real high. Last years ball was atleast 10 to 15 yards longer off the tee. With that being said the iron play is very close if not better with the new ball, does not spin back as much , more of the drop and stop. I like the higher flight for the irons and long irons alot. Just asking is this normal of the new ball?

    Thank You, Dave

    I found the same thing with the X test ball last fall, shorter with the driver everything else was great.  I have not hit the new ball yet still working through the inventory of last years and it is still cold and wet in the Northwest.  Would be curious what others  have seen?

    I hit the TEST balls and am currently playing the 2011 versions.  I am hitting the newer version longer  and higher than last years.  The drop and stop is great with the new ball.

    Stuart ,

     I got some of the test balls also and I hit them high also,  The new balls feel great and play great feel awesome putting , If you need the height then the are a great fit. I battle with height on my driver and have to work on keeping it lower.

    I have been playing the new ball for about month and half.  I really don't see the difference in the flight of the ball off the driver or the irons. 
    I think they spin more than the old ball on firm greens.  Any moisture in the green surface and they seem to drop and stop.  I also noticed that the covers are much more prone to scuff marks off the irons and wedges than the older ball.

    Overall I have always like the Pro V 1X.

    I love the new balls.  I have found that they are longer than the old ones with the driver.  Even in cold conditions I am hitting at least as far if not 5--10 yards longer than I do in the summer.  In all other ways I feel they are a little better than the old one's.  For my game the spin is perfect.  Distance with my irons are about the same.

    Its funny I think that everyone's experience is directly relative to swing speed. I play the x, and they are longer off the tee. I swing pretty fast so since the ball compresses all through my iron set with a full swing I am seeing more distance with every club.

    I am hitting the older model, but every once in a while T. Tiger will throw me a new one to hit.  That new ball sure does fly a long way, and has good stop when you bring a wedge in high to get up close and personal with the pin.
