APPLY: The 2019 Titleist Pro V1 Experience with GolfWRX. 8 Members wanted. Apply here!


Recommended Posts

City/State- Chester Springs, Pa (5/6 hour drive to plant, or can use FF miles if needed)

 

Handicap- 6.3

 

Currently play/why- Chrome Soft, I was not fit into them but got a bunch for free. Our club is all Titleist now, so we can be friends.

 

Interested in seeing/experiencing- I'm most interested in meeting with the fitting group, to see which ball has the best spin characteristics for my game. Talking with marketing and R&D about new product launches. I also would love to see what it takes to make a Titleist ball from start to finish(quality, consistency, etc.) How 80+ years of making golf balls has both changed and remained the same.

What is your current USGA Handicap? 7

Which golf ball(s) do you currently play, and why? Were you fit for your golf ball? ProV1x - I've switched back and forth between the regular V1 and the X through the years, but never been truly fit for a ball.

What are you most interested in seeing/experiencing at Titleist? The way they dial people in for the correct ball. I'm a golf nerd and would love to see all the technologies and resources at their disposal.

What is your current USGA Handicap? 11

Which golf ball(s) do you currently play, and why? Were you fit for your golf ball?

ProV1, for feel, performance and confidence. Made the switch from ProV1x with the apparent model swap in 2017 but not sure of actual vs perceived performance.

 

What are you most interested in seeing/experiencing at Titleist?

Getting the facts vs the hype, how does Titleist differentiate itself in the super competitive ball market and how it effects me and my golf game.

What is your current USGA Handicap? 12

Which golf ball(s) do you currently play, and why? Were you fit for your golf ball? ProV1, because I prefer the lower trajectory and high spin with my short irons. I was fit for them at a Titleist green grass fitting event.

What are you most interested in seeing/experiencing at Titleist? I'm most interested in seeing the process itself, and most interested in learning how the different materials and dimple patterns interact to impact performance.

What is your current USGA Handicap? 5

Which golf ball(s) do you currently play, and why? Were you fit for your golf ball? Pro V1x--best combo of low spin off the driver, high spin off the irons, penetrating flight, good greenside control. I was fit for the ball with my teacher on Trackman.

**Which golf ball(s) do you currently play, and why? Were you fit for your golf ball?**

Srixon Z-Star - Got a decent amount of spin, but honestly, I rotate through balls quite a lot. Would love to settle on one. Haven't been fit for a ball ever.

 

**What are you most interested in seeing/experiencing at Titleist?**

Would love to see how they test ball prototypes and how they further develop initial designs based on the data they must collect.

Which golf ball(s) do you currently play, and why? Bridgestone B330 bc it’s low spin for me but doesn’t feel too harsh. Gets the ball to check but not spin too much keeping it predictable for my short game.

 

Were you fit for your golf ball? Nope, just some trial and error a few years ago

 

What are you most interested in seeing/experiencing at Titleist? Honestly i just want to learn more - more about what the right factors are to think about, more about which materials have which impact and more about my game

It is shocking to me to see how few people signed up for this one. I wish my schedule allowed me to submit for it but amazing the lack of responses.

Which golf ball(s) do you currently play, and why? Were you fit for your golf ball? TaylorMade TP5 and TP5x depending on the day. I found faster ball speeds with these balls than many other brands in 2018 and I have a collection of them I'll continue to work through until I run out. I was not fit for my golf ball.

 

What are you most interested in seeing/experiencing at Titleist? The manufacturing process and everything that goes into it - particularly the R&D. After listening to the GolfWRX podcast about the facility my interest has grown greatly. If it was such a mind blowing experience to the WRX staff, I'm sure it'll be incredible for the average guy like myself.

Nothing is safe in my bag!
