Trevor made the golf team for Reed High a few weeks ago and we picked him up some new clubs. Since we were going to be playing I needed to restock my golf ball reserves. The golf shop was running a special where you got a free sleeve if you bought a box of a dozen. Sweet, except the fact that it excluded only Titleist. Evidently Titleist dictates they can’t do any promotions except the Titleist approved ones, and will revoke their license for any Titleist product if they are found violating their laws. THAT SUCKS.

A few weeks earlier I had received an ad in my email for Callaway’s new TOUR i & TOUR ix balls. I picked these up instead and got the free sleeve. Well I wish I had just paid for the Titleist because the cover on the TOUR ix are so thin they scuff up with regular iron play after 4-6 holes. I go through 3 or 4 a round just because of wear and tear. For a $40 box you would think they would be a little more durable. |

I’ll stick with my ProV1x’s where a ball lasts the entire round. |

Can I shoot scratch if I change balls every three to four holes?
If that were true I would be switching every hole. Sadly no.
I have had a great experience with the Callaway Tour ix since switching from Pro-V1x last year. The Callaway is a longer ball than the Pro-V1x. The biggest difference I noticed, from 125 yds and in, I use Callaway X-Forged Wedges (2 of the wedges have MD grooves), the Callaway ball is not rendered “useless” after the first 56-14 wedge shot. In fact, I have now played 36 holes with the same Tour ix ball. I agree with TJ it does scuff, but does not chew and come apart like the Pro-V1x. My index is 10. I played most of the winter (not entering GHIN scores), but now it’s April so I’m curious to see if my index goes down a little due to the Tour ix consistency off the tee.
Rich, thanks for the comments. I haven’t had the issues with the Pro-V1x coming apart but would be interested for you to elaborate on your experineces there? I was using the ProV1 but it was too soft and would spin back 3-10 yards on my approach shots and drove me nuts on guageing distances. Also have you tried any of the Nike balls?
Considerably, the article is actually the greatest on this precious topic. I fit in with your conclusions and will eagerly look forward to your approaching updates. Saying thanks will not just be sufficient, for the tremendous clarity in your writing. I will right away grab your rss feed to stay informed of any updates. Gratifying work and much success in your business endeavors!
Who is going to be Tiger Woods next swing coach? I wonder if he’s going to pick a big name instructor or possibly a less famous one? I will be interested in seeing how this works out. But you would figure at this point in his professional career, does he still really need one? Do you think Mike Bender would be interested in being his coach?
