New ProVs

[youngwaldo]

Have to try the bee ones out. Played the X for a long time and recently went with the other.  Will see what works best.

The "bee ones" ?

I must say I do like the side stamp, but I don't need an even spinnier X and I generally prefer the feel of the X over the V1. Curious to see how it performs on the course.

I do really like the side alignment on the ball, may only need sharpies to put dots on the ball.

Titleist should just take the Pro V1x Left Dash and launch it as the 2021 Pro V1x.

 I think they are better having all three options.

I'm sticking with 19 X for that very reason.....got a test sleeve and noticed the softer feel but higher spin after one ball

Exactly why I’m going 21PV1X.

 

I want a bit higher launch and spin with my ZX7’s

Man, I'm normally a low flight ; low spin old guy and the 19X brought me back to yesteryear with its performance.....I'm using T200 irons for reference...... had Z785/Z585 combo prior ......didn't use prov1x.....was using Qstar tour ....got nice height but not the same in stopping power. 

 

I think I've just gotten accustomed to 19X and love the overall package.  Might re-visit 21X down the road

I don't think the feel of the left dash would make it very successful at retail.

I don't generally like the trend of higher flight for the V1X (I think the 2007 version was my favorite) but the 2019 is a really good golf ball. I'll probably have to stock up while they are cheap.

Grasping at straws here, but you seem to know you ProV1x's. I played the 15 for years and years and years. I have now run out. As best I can tell the 21- V1 should be my best fit if I can deal with the softer feel. Thoughts?

 

I found the left dash very good, but have only winter tested it. In cold weather it feels like a rock to me and I can't get over that.

I actually find the current ProV1 to be a very good ball, from what I have read I would expect the new ball to be good as well. I just find the current ProV1x hotter off the driver and better up and down the bag for me. If I need to keep it down I can.

 

The left dash seems to do what it's advertised to do I just hate the feel even during the summer (found it even worse during the winter), with no appreciable improvement into the wind or trajectory wise off the irons.

I'd bet dollars to donuts that the Left Dash's firm feel is what kept it from making the cut as the retail X ball for '17 and also why it doesn't get more usage from Tour players.

 

If you don't mind clicky there's a lot to love with Left Dash, but the feel can be easily be the deal breaker.

When do they have the buy 3 dozen get 1 deal again?

The left dash is titleists iteration of the tp5x in my opinion and the tp5x does very well. A little bit of a niche market but i do think titleist should bring it to retail. I mean heck how many balls do they bring to retail now?

TP5x feel is night and day better than the left dash for me. 

[MysteryV]

I play the TP5x and Left Dash - very similar in all regards - except you can get the Practice TP5x for <$2 ea. and the Left Dash is 2x that.  That said, I stocked up on both during the holiday sale.

 

The V1x is just way to spinny for me.

I'll probably have 3 dozen for sale pretty soon.  I think I might be switching to the new ProV..

[benclab]

For years, I tend to spin the X a lot from 5 wood down to 7 iron. I don't know why, just do and they end up a good half club shorter than anything else. I like them because of the spin around the greens. It's almost like cheating. The last prov1, regular, really fit me. But I had so many TP5x boxes so I never really played it. If the new prov1 is like the last one, I'll definitely be switching.

No i get that, im just saying they both fit in that category- firm fast high trajectory and lower spinning in the middle/short irons. Tp5x sells pretty well. Im just making an argument the left dash would be a great addition to retail offerings.

Whats classifying retail? I just grabbed a dozen left dash at golf galaxy 

[GolfChannel]

Team left dash all day, it’s so pure off of irons and you’d be hard pressed to find a better ball if you’re chasing easy ball speed off driver.

If its that easy to find thats great news

[Stanks]

Left dash is a stupidly good ball. TP5x (white) is equally as good. 
new ProVx, I remain a skeptic until I play them. Anyone notice any going dead left or right? 
off center cores....

For me the 15 X was a great ball and the last X ball I played. I have tested 21 V and X for about six weeks now and I can tell you the 21 V picks up right where the 15 X left off.  I predict you will thoroughly enjoy the 21 V. 

[kwainio]

Just got a dozen of the '21 ProV1s, for sure feel a bit softer off the putter than the '19 version. Dig the new alignment aid. Would love to test off a LM but alas I am in the cold locked down golfless hellscape that is Canada right now..

Thanks very helpful

Sorry if addressed in a prior thread but isn't there a way to chat with someone at Titleist online about what ball you might best fit?  The way the models have flipped over the last 3 years, etc., I'd love to chat with someone - anyone know if that's a thing or am I hallucinating?
