... This is from MG Golf:

 

"These brand new balls (NOT logo overruns or X-outs) are Callaway's "Tour Select" versions—very special balls provided only to Callway's PGA Tour pros (including the elite pros whose names you would immediately recognize) and receive a VIP level of QC. Being tweaked for pro players (and not intended for public sale), they have slight variations to the standard Chrome Soft sidestamp (like a "+" or "★" appended). They are of course USGA conforming."

This is correct

Getting into chaos theory now, perhaps a butterfly flapping its wings in Peking contributed to the anomaly.

If the OP had been playing cavity back irons and the chromesoft at the same time, and both gave a random flier on the same shot he could have hit a 300 yard 8 iron !
