As part of the 'big fit' that was held on here, I was suggested the NXT Tour and ProV1x.
The NXT Tours were certainly long and yet did not produce that horrible 'click' off my putter face that I really don't like. Putter is a Bettinardi BC3, so no soft inserts here. I didn't get much spin from the ball on the wedge shots, but that's probably more to do with technique than the ball!!
All in all I was quite impressed with the NXT Tour.
Until.
I tried the ProV1x. It had the length, and wasn't too 'spinny' off the tee. But at wedge distances it was awesome. Ball was stopping quickly and even with a small touch of backspin! Which is good if you're expecting it, but not when you're used to some roll out. It also did not make that nasty click off the putter.
Sadly though, they're now gone, and will either be found by some lucky person, or chopped up by a lawn mower!
TBH, I'd never have considered the Tour or V1x, as I didn't think I had the swing speed for them. But I can't help but think that Titliest got their marketing wrong with them. After all, how many others have given these a miss because of having the same thoughts as me?
If money were no object, I'd play the V1x all summer, but I can't justify it. Not at that price, and not when I loose a ball or two a round. However, if they were £20 a dozon, I'd use them, and I can't help but wonder how many more people would use them at that price?
So come on Titliest. Reduce your prices and you'd sell even more balls.
