My best performance has been with Bridgestone Tour B XS so far this year. Other contenders still up for evaluation are:

Chromesoft X

Z Star XV

Tour B RX

 

For some reason I just don’t get on well with Q Star Tour or regular Chromesoft.

TSR2 8.0 / Tour AD CQ 6S

TSR2 16.5 / Ventus TR Red 7X

Epic Max 18 / MMT 70X 

U505 22 / HZRDUS RDX 6.0 80Hy

Artisan HC 6-P / KBS C-Taper Lite 115X

Artisan 49, 54, 59 / KBS C-Taper Lite 115X

Revolving Putter

I'll try the Srixon Z Star, but I'm leaning going back to the AVX. I'll try the new ProV1. I tried the new TP5 and actually liked last year's better. Crazy.

Wilson FG Tour if I can find them, have 2 dozen now.

I've got a mishmash of tour balls in my stash. Dozen ProV1, 3 sleeves each of TP5, BStone RXS, ChromeSoft ( 2nd Fav), 2dz. Ksigs, and 2 sleeves of Snell MTB Black. Plus a mix of those in the bag.

I only use 1-2 balls per round, and will play a ball 2-3 rounds if not damaged, so I'm set for the foreseeable future.

It took a little getting used to, but I'm going to play the new TP5 this year. I like the feel, the ball flight, and the performance in the wind.

Will try Snell MTB-X and Black once they ship (April), may switch over to one of them after testing and gift my leftover balls to my son.

Don't recall how many years I have played ProV1x but recently switched to the new ProV1. So far so good. Edited; went back to ProV1x only the new version and love it.

 

As the OP said there are many ball options. However, just because a lot of ball options exist doesn't necessarily mean we have to try them all. I care too much about game improvement. There are a lot of career options out there too. Can't try them all when the greater goal is to be accomplished. B)

Vice Pro in Lime....as good or so close can't tell without a Trackman as last year's Chrome Soft, and half the price, so why not? The Lime color is visible from long way away.
