Chromesoft Truvis (Suits) - Switched from the TP5


dcmidnight

Recommended Posts

Been a long time TM fan and have been playing the TP5 since it came out. Decided a couple weeks ago to give the Chromesoft a try because I was intrigued by the new Truvis design.

 

Three rounds in (6.1 index) and I am really impressed with this ball. Even on long iron shots this ball just sits and stops. With wedges and short irons, same thing. No more sucking back off the green - none of that. Yet around the green on chips of bunker shots, it checks and holds just fine.

 

Definitely feels softer off the putter face than either the TP5 or TP5x, which I love. And have seen no loss of distance or anything like that at all.

 

I wasnt sure how I would like the Truvis but I gotta say, its growing on me. Its definitely easy to tell which ball is mine out in the fairway or on the green. Will be sticking with it through the summer.

The TP5 has been my favorite ball, but in keeping track of my scores, I've discovered I shoot my lowest rounds with the Chromesoft (Truvis and standard...although I prefer the Truvis).

I honestly can't say the Chromesoft or the TP5 is longer off the tee, but I can say (for some reason I do not understand), my putting is significantly better with the Chromesoft. And I find my short game approach shots are closer.

I just grabbed a dozen Chrome Softs to try on a whim and I must say, two rounds in, I'm impressed. I may not be going back to Pro V1's after this year (I've got 4 dozen in my locker)

I play the Chrome Soft and it has the perfect amount of spin for me. Balls like the ProV1 are great if you like ripping the ball back but I found that to be more of a detriment to my game. I also sometimes play the Project (a) which is a good ball very similar to the TP5 with spin probably between the CS and TP5.

I wish I'd pull the trigger on the 6 dozen Green / Yellow Truvis I saw on Ebay a week ago. I wouldn't mind gaming for a year.

 

They sell them at Dicks/Golf Galaxy. I assume it’s these.

Yeah that'd be them! I'm half hoping they release them in an X version. And, I saw them at 6 dozen for like 180 a few weeks back on Ebay as stated originally. I've always thought that John Deere color combo of yellow / green is a poppy look and would love to play them. I gotta run out of the 5 dozen balls in my closet first.

Predictable spin is the best way to put it.

 

But after a few rounds so far I've seen no loss in distance off the tee - I seem to be in the same places at my club that I normally would be. I havent hit one yet where I thought I'd crushed it but it was 20 yards short or anything like that. But I have not taken the time to get it indoors on Trackman either.

 

I definitely need more time on the greens working on long putts though. The difference in feel really caused me to badly misjudge a few long ones on Saturday and I blew my first putt 10+ feet by. Nothing a little practice wont cure.
