On Saturdas round, I noticed that I only had three golf balls in my bag, so I ran in the proshop with intent to pick up a sleeve of Pro V1x, My friend was buying a sleeve of PV1s, and I was behind him in line, and watched the worker ring him up for $17.50 (Prices werent on the boxes). I was all WTF, and put the PV1x back on the shelf, and said "what the hell" and grabbed a pack of the new NXT Tours.
Played the same ball for 27 holes, (18 Sat+9 Sun)
Driver
This ball is long off the driver, I wasnt noticing a big gain on straight shots, mabye a few yards. The big difference was seen on my draws and fades. My favorite tee shot is when I aim to the right side of the fairway and hitting a draw that seems to float in the air. This I noticed a big distance gain, 5-10 yards.
Woods & Long Irons
I have a specialty shot with a long iron, my friends say that I "Pissed on it" when I take one less club, say a 4 iron from 3 iron distance, Lean on it (delofting the club) and hitting a draw, the shot works great with this ball. It hits at the front of the green and hops back to the hole. Fairway wood shots were great, and got some release into the green.
Approach Shots
Ball was awesome. Any club from 6-PW would stop in a 2 foot radius from ballmark. Also a very workable ball. Draws, Fades, and could keep it down into the wind.
Wedges
Found a perfect balance here. Was able to control spin from all distances. From full wedge shots ball would hit, and spin back only a little. And on my punch fade shots, the ball would hop and stop. This is a good bump-n-run ball, was able to release and hold its line from 52* chips from the rough. Stopped nicley on pitch shots too.
Putter Feel
Does it really matter at this point?? If a ball made of cheese danish did what the <--NXTTour--> did on the rest of my clubs, I wouldn't mind putting with it
