The 3 layer construction is a novel idea and making it happen is another. A lot of technology has gone into making this ball, mostly patented, and therefore keeping its exclusivity.

Not too many manufacturers have the ability to make such a ball, and the technology behind it has been part of the titleist pro v1 golf ball story from the beginning. The cost is a typical market behaviour to a sought after item that doesnt have too many peers. Everyone wants one, so the cost is slightly higher than other balls

Sure it has 392 dimples disparately placed around the titleist pro v1 ball with a new staggered wave parting line marketing angle. It even has an exclusive Alignment integrated Marking (AIM) line to help out with your putting.This is all wonderful marketing stuff and no doubt contributes to both cost and profile of features for the pro v1 ball. Great in print but how does that help and what does it mean.

“Stand back little children” AIM is here to fix all of my putting woes. That 30 foot, snaking, undulating putt from the rough on the edge of the green is going to go stright in every time now. Sorry to be a bit sarcastic but come on, is s line on a golf ball going to do that much. Tiger doesnt have one. Ditch that as a must have on your golf ball features.

We are not building the space shuttle here but the advance 392 dimple pattern design and laminar airflow enhancement is what you are buying into. Not all manufactures can match Titleist’s abilty to invest in its golf ball technology. The average golfer doesnt give a hoot about this waffle nor do they need to. But as any prominent practitioner will tell you, it is a fair bit easier to get remarkable results when using the right equipment.

In plain terms what does this mean. Basically the ball will go further, perform much better in flight, and give you a much more consistent ball to play with. The dimple design will also impact on the spin the ball will obtain in flight. This has two effects. The gyroscopic effect stabilises the ball and makes any flightpath variation much more unlikely. Try sitting on a bike when it is stationary, and then try it again when moving with the wheels spinning. The other effect you see is the legendary stopping power the pro v1 ball has on the greens due to the spin.

OK, now that we have briefly explained why the titleist pro v1 ball behaves like it does what are the results seen on the course. All that design and science is for titleist to worry about, we just want to know how it works out on the course and forget about all of that.

There’s no doubt about it the pro v1 is as good as it gets( that will cause some debat). The titleist pro v1 ball is the most prevalent golf ball on every tour on the planet. Granted, titleist pay the pros to use them so that may be a factor. However the same figures are mirrored amongst the higher skilled amatuer ranks who are using by choice and paying for the privilege. The answer is very self evident and compelling.

A good consistent kit allows for good consistent results. After all thats why steel shafts were first used. The titleist pro v1 is a perfect compliment to your exacting game. Get ready for its seperb traction around the greens. You will wonder how that can be acheived with such long distance as well. Most distance balls are super hard, go a mile but are good candidates for the darwinian awards when it is suddenly realised that someday you have to stop as well.

Prices for the titleist pro v1 are at the upper end of the scale. With such hard work being done on their design I wouldnt be giving them away either.

Put your ego away when trying to decide what is for you. Lets face it, if you are off a 24 handicap with a swing like a rusty gate in a tornado, then you wont be consistent enough to get maximum benefit from a titleist pro v1 ball. By the same token, if you have a great swing but are using golf balls with questionable manufacturing tolerances, then you might find yourself with an erratically flying golf ball due to an offset centre of gravity. Solving this golf dilemma is how titleist first started.

Half price saving can be had on your titleist pro v1 golf balls. Most of these are through either mint titleist pro v1 balls or refinished pro v1 balls. Both of these are a good option to get into the game without too much expense. Titleistgolfballs.com.au and mygolfbid.com.au are two sources to get great prices. They also have new balls if you want. I even found that they would offer wholesale deals if the quantity was right.
