I also like the Prov1X characteristics over the V1. I get more distance off the driver, less spin and find it easier to control wedge shots as I'm not a big fly/spin guy, more a land it and run it out.
My favorite cheaper replacements are the NXT (not tour) and the Maxfli Noodle (long and soft). The old Noodle never fails to impress me. I switched to one yesteday on a little island green with 2 to play. Stuck that shot and parred. Then took the long 18th with a hybrid approach out of the rough from over 200yds. to 12ft. That hole was the matchbreaker and I had no problem trusting the Noodle to get the job done.
