I got about a half dozen of these balls at a major and thought I'd try them out. I've read many reviews on them at other sites also. I work at a majot golf retailer and I haven't seen anyone buy them yet, but I'll give anything a shot. PROS: Soft feel. Putts fairly well. Decent off the tee. Great name. NEGATIVES: Boring looking. After sinking my first shot in the woods, the next ball went 17 holes and is scuffed and shot. VERY, VERY fast on greens. Unpredictable off the tee, but, maybe I was! Too expensive if bought. Overall, not a bad ball, but in my opinion, not worth $39.99/dz. For $13 less I'd get the NXT tours in a heartbeat. I never felt comfortable with this ball on any tee shot or chip. Maybe it was the thought of a new ball. That being said, I did hit three fairways long and straight that I haven't hit before so the ball can't be all bad! BUT, it was all over the place at times. I still wouldn't feel comfortable playing a round with this ball, but I'd take it over a Noodle or another average $20 ball if that was all I had left in the bag. I have to agree with others though on other sites that the value is poor because of it's durability, but, that's the price you pay for a soft ball, and this is VERY soft, almost too much if you can believe that. Hit it on anything but grass and you're in trouble. If you've got a few bucks to spare and a course with lots of grass and hidden cement golf paths, give it a try. If you like a soft feel, run to your golf retailer NOW! Customer Service NONE USED. Similar Products Used: I haven't played anything similar to this yet. In price, it's Nike Platinum, Callaway Tour, Bridgestone B330, and Hogan Apex. |

This ball is the best I have ever hit. Really comes off the club hot and straight. Soft feel around the greens and putts true. Extreamly durable ball also. Better than Pro-V's, yet less expensive. Similar Products Used: Titlest Pro V1, Titlest So-Lo |

Awesome ball! The best ball I've ever played. Hold the greens very well with just the right spin. Amazing distance off the tee and very durable ball. Better than the Pro V1! Give it a try! Similar Products Used: Maxfli Revolution Tour Titleist Pro V1 |

I used the comp'd trial sleeve during a Shotgun-Scramble tournament. You get to try crazy shots during these things, and I was curious since I had read almost nothing about this ball. Well, this ball does just what Maxfli says it does: Go far, and spin a lot. It spins more, and is softer feeling than the ball I use now, the U tri tour. If I was to switch to new ball, this one would be in the running. The durability is better than most. On par with the U tri. I hit a tree with one flush (driver)and it didnt mark up. Performance wise, very similar to a Hogan Tour Deep.I will probably take this one out again for full (real) couple rounds, like I did the Hogans. They are worth a look. But at $10-12 more per dozen than the U tri, they would really, really have to shine. I was impressed though, these are better for me than the Nike Gold, and HX Red. (100% better than the Revolution Tours) Customer Service N/A Similar Products Used: Maxfli Rev Tour, Hogan Tour Deep, HX Red, Nike One Gold. |

I received a sleeve from my Pro Shop for trial. An excellent ball but nothing much different from what is on the market now. It flies high and far, doesn't spin too much off the driver, drops and stops with the irons, and you can control it off the putter. It has a slightly softer feel than a Pro V1x or HX Tour, though. With all of the quality balls on the market I just didn't see anything about this ball that would make me say "Wow." It's good ball with excellent playability but nothing about it makes me want to change from my current ball, the U-Tri Tour. It might be just the ticket for your game and it is worth a try.
