Left Dash ProV1x vs Pro V1

[BogeyJuice]

Feel like I'm still adapting to the LD around the greens.  I get decent roll-out with my 58*, but that might just be technique.  However, definitely see a positive difference in my irons and woods.  My irons would stop and sometimes spin back too much with the regular 1x.  Now, I typically get a bit of roll-out on my irons (a couple of yards on approach shots at most).  Overall, needed a ball that spun less and LD has suited me well to start this season.

I have always played the X for the firmer feel and higher launch but Really interesting to hear so much about the left dash flying so much farther with driver and rolling out more with the Prov1X.  I found that to be the case with the 2019 X so I played the LD for two years and preferred the harder feel with the putter but the 2021 X went so much farther for me and eliminated the gap so I stopped using the LD.  I do agree the LD needs to be played over 70 degrees to make it compress and go, at least at my 90-95 driver swing speed

i have a swing speed of 94-96 im looking at the left dash. Does that hall fit my swing or go with Pro v1.

You can certainly use the LD at that swing speed. In the MGS ball test the LD was the longest ball at the slowest swing speeds. These are two different balls however, particularly in feel and spin around the greens so you will have to give each a try to see what your personal preferences will be.

It really depends.  The left does launch pretty high which is great for slower ss.  However, it's also low spin so you might find that it could fall outta the sky too fast.  You may benefit from the regular ProV1X as it's the same high launch as the left dash but will spin more.

Left dash could work just fine for you.

 

Just because it FEELS firm, it still spins plenty. Its more like pro v1x is really really high spin more than anything.

 

I think its really nice for a driver too because that high initial launch is great.
