Titleist Pro V1

Pros: Exceptionally long distance? You better believe it.
Cons: A bit pricey, if you are buying them.

Only on very rare occasions have I bought a golf ball. Mostly, throughout my nearly fifty years, I have been fortunate to work through college at a resort, featuring 27 holes of golf. A good spring walk through the woods kept me in golf balls all summer ...

Pros: Good Distance, Feel, Spin, Performance
Cons: Paying $45 per dozen still hurts...

Titleist first introduced the Pro V1's sometime around 1999, making these balls about 7 years old. Even through Titleist reconfigures the core almost every year, you could easily say that these are the longest running performance balls, and in my ...

Pros: Tremendous feel and accuracy. Very durable. Just check out how many Pro's use it.
Cons: They are not cheap. At over $3 per ball you hate to lose one.

My Pro V1 experience: Using the Titliest Pro V1 and Pro V1X has helped improve my game, cutting my handicap about 15 strokes to a 5. Of course the ball didn't do it on it's own, that would be ridiculous! But it does give me confidence and ...

Pros: Enhanced feel, spin, distance
Cons: Not durable and very expensive

I've been catching a lot of flak from some of the guys in my regular golfing group about my penchant for using a hard golf ball. I suspect that they might really be giving me a hard time about being cheap, but some of them use the more expensive ...

Pros: Control and versatility around the greens.
Cons: A little too much spin off wedges and short irons.

Despite the popularity of the original ProV1, Titleist decided to remake the most popular ball of all time. They addressed one of the major complaints about the original model in reducing the spin rate off of the driver and long irons while bumping up ...

Pros: Distance-Spin-Feel-Balance--The Best
Cons: Too pricey unless you know where to look

The Titleist Pro V1 remains the best all around ball on the market-- bar none. I had been a big Callaway fan for a while, as I believe the Hex Dimple pattern does keep the ball on a straighter line, (though this is often detrimental for those who like ...

Pros: Simply the best ball available
Cons: Expensive and not for everyone

The Titleist ProV1 was supposed to revolutionize the game of golf. Did it succeed? Well, it depends on what parameters you are going to judge the ball on.

First of all, a little on my golf ball expertise. I am a scratch golfer and have...

Pros: Longer than most "distance" balls
Cons: Other than the high price, there is none.

I simply got tired of reading advice from pretentious and arogant golfers ( with a few honorable exceptions, of course) who have led to believe that Premium balls are not for the average golfer (mid handicappers like myself). The PROV1 is a tremendous...

Pros: Spin, feel, workability, control
Cons: Price, not quite as long as other top end balls, scuff easily

A little personal background so you know where I'm coming from. I'm a 12 handicap, average drives about 255-265, am usually at least around the green in reg and I rely on my short game to make pars and avoid big numbers. Now, on to the legend that is the ...

Pros: Spin, flight, and workability...
Cons: Price but that's all...

For the better or more "veteran" golfer, it all comes down not only to swing fundamentals but even equipment. Most people on tour play with brands such as Callaway, Ping, Cleveland, and Titleist And the names that are most famous for golf balls, ...

Pros: Good Feel,Spin,Control and Distance
Cons: Expensive

To me the Titleist Pro V1 is the best ball on the market. Of course this isn't the same for everybody, but for me it just sets up right. The ball is long and spins and has a good feel making it good for any lower handicap player. And now that they've...

Pros: This golf ball works with you. Great distance, control and greenside feel.
Cons: Can be pricey at $34.95/dozen, you get attached to these golf balls quickly!

Titleist, Fortune Brand's top selling golf product accounted for nearly one billion dollars in sales last year. This data is documented on the company's financials from their most recent annual report. The ProV1s definitely had a huge impact on this...

Pros: Probably the best ball made in terms of combining pure distance, feel and spin.
Cons: It hurts to lose one.

When Titleist first introduced the ProV1, I immediately switched from the Titleist Professional. Wh ...

Pros: Really long, soft yet solid feel, great spin
Cons: Only for the best players

After one of my rare snap hooks I wandered down into the Out of Bounds area looking for my ball, I found it and also stumbled across a Pro V1x and I put in the main pocket of my bag and kept playing.

This week, I decided to put it on the tee...

Pros: Straight off the driver, spin on short shots, soft feel, durable
Cons: price, people steal them

I had never really found a ball that made me quit trying other balls, but then I tried the V1. There was a lot of fanfare - PGA Pros winning with this new ball, many pros switching before it was available to the public. Then the incredible demand and...
