    I know many people on these forums are Titleist players and do prefer Pro V1s, but I've played TPs for half a year now and love them, I am switching many clubs over to Titleist, and curious if I should switch balls. I prefer lower shots and not so much spin to help with my baby slice, I need to go out to a ball fitting to try both out, but in your guys experience which feels better and plays better?

    I've played the TP5 and think that it's a good ball, but I found I was able to play other balls better. Last year I started the year off with Srxn XV's, then moved to PV1X, and finally PV1. The PV1 gives me the best all around performance that I need; low spin off the tee with penetrating flight, a soft feel with feedback, and just the right amount of greenside spin that the ball hops once or twice and stops without ripping back. It's the perfect ball for my game and I don't plan on moving to anything else. That said, I have no idea what your game needs. It might be the TP5, or the TP5x, or the ProV1. Grab a sleeve and play with them and see what suits your swing.

    For lower traj and less spin you'd want Pro V1 or TP5. The x variants are higher launch and spin.

    Did you notice the post on the main screen of the website? The one that says 13 of 14 PGA victories this year are with ProV series balls? Unless a tour player is paid to play a TP5X or others, it's not likely to happen. Titleist balls are by far the most played in all professional and amateur ranks. I guess there will always be some people buying other brands but not me, and not too many people that call themselves true Team Titleist ambassadors.

    Can’t say much about your current ball. Since they just released a new version for the first time in 3 years, now might be a good time to try the left dash Pro-V1x or the Pro-v1. I don’t know if they are the best option for you, but until you can find a ball fitting or even schedule a virtual fitting with a Titleist expert (available to schedule under fittings on this site) trying a couple of sleeves each and seeing how each performs from green to tee is a starting point.

    Great question but it’s really difficult to answer as, like a lot of things with golf, your personal preferences are different than mine. Doing a ball fitting would help, as would simply taking some golf balls to the course and trying them out. I used to play TP5X but have switched to Pro V1 as it flies lower for me. I have thought about switching to Pro V1x left dash for the firmer feel but again that’s a preference for me. Any ball you choose, as long as it’s a Titleist will be a good choice.

  7. I used to play the tp5x and liked it too but when I first try the new pro v1x , I loved it and made the change . I played much better , it felt softer and has more spin . I would recommend the pro v1x .

    Buy a sleeve of each Pro V model and try them. They each fly through different windows and to me sound slightly different. If you try Pro V, x, and left dash, you will know within a short period of time which is right for you.
