This is a very nice ball. It is long, soft, and durability is it's only fault. The review of Aaron- is utter nonsense. First of all Someone that shoots in the hundreds probably shouldn't be playing this ball. And second Mr. Woods does not even use this exact ball. You have no idea about his contract or anything about golf in general. The reason you don't like this ball is because you don't have the ability to hit it well. For players not hackers this is a good golf ball. Similar Products Used: Maxfli Revolution, Titleist Pro and Prestige, Callaway Rule 35. |

Pretty good ball. Distance, spin and feel are all okay. To me, it doesn't go quite as far as the Revolution, but the spin and feel are comparable. Short irons seem to chew up the cover fairly easily. IMHO, definitely not worth the money. If they knocked at least $10 off the price, it would be more in line. I still prefer the Revolution. Similar Products Used: Maxfli Revolution, Strata, various Titleist models |

Awesome ball. I saved up for 2 weeks to get this ball, and it rules! I made my first ever hole-in-one with it! Every one should try it. Similar Products Used: Titleist Professional |

This is mostly aimed at the previous review of this ball. This ball may not be the best, but it certainly does not play the worst either. And the idea that Nike bought Tiger is pure garbage, or any other golfer using this ball. You could say the same about golfers using a Titleist ball. Tiger obviously does not need the money, nor does he play for money- he plays to win, and if he thinks Nike's ball will help him win even more, then maybe we should at least consider this ball. I find it hard to believe that this ball needs any "refinements" when the best player in the world obviously doesn't find it "totally uncontrollable", nor do other decent golfers, judging by previous reviews. Maybe that is the problem, perhaps the ball is too good, and its your swing that needs "refinements." The moral of this story is, just because someone has previous notions towards a company doesn't qualify in objectively evaluating its product. I think Tiger using it speaks for itself, and we are all not just being bought. Similar Products Used: you name it, I've used it... |

Ummm, I'm not really sure why Tiger or Azinger switched to this ball, nor am I too sure why every golfer, regardless of handicap, wants this ball. Oh wait, I remember now! Nike bought Tiger and now they want to buy you! Well, don't let them...this ball did not work for me at all. Not that this is a bad ball, construction quality and the dual-dimple pattern are both impressive, but I feel that the ball needs major refinement by its very young (ball-wise)and perhaps too-eager-to-cash-in-on-Tiger's-popularity company. My biggest problem is that the Tour Accuracy is simply uncontrollable. And it comes off the clubface so hot that it barely feels like you're making contact at all. No solid "schwack" like I get from my Stratas, no soft feel on the green (their much-hyped "softest feel in golf" is pure fiction), nothing but a bunch of hype from Nike. They make a really nice glove, though! Similar Products Used: Strata ML Balata, Strata Pro, Titleist Professional, Balata, Tour Prestige. |

a lot of our courses not being that long i usually just carry a +4 wood. i played 8/31 at great course. i could not hit my wood to save my life, but off the irons, long and short, the accuracy performed fantastic. i will reccomend it for Similar Products Used: None |

Great ball. In my opinion the best compromise ball on the market. More distance than MC Spin, Strata Tour Pro, Maxfli Revolution, or Titleist HP Tour & Tour Distance, to name a few. Better feel (softer) around the greens than any of the above balls (though the Strata and Maxfli are pretty close). Putts true, great feel (not a marshmallow). More spin off the short irons than any ball I've tried, yet low spin off the driver. Durability is better than any of the above named balls (if durability is an issue, you must be hitting trees, cart paths, or topping the ball, because this ball holds up better than any of the "soft" balls I've tried, looks virtually new after 18 holes). This ball seems to have it all! Similar Products Used: Just about every premium ball out there except Precept Tour Premium --- it's next. |

These give the best compromise in terms of distance and feel, hands down. I hit these longer than any Titleist and still have more feel than Titleist distance balls. If you hit these right, around the greens they will check up, or when you want them to they will release. In terms of price, these are also a little cheaper than Titleists. I was playing these before Tiger switched, and I will stick with them. Similar Products Used: all of them, including all Titleists |

I am soooo glad Tiger likes this ball because I hate it! First it costs too much and second it feels horrible off the club face. And just to put the story straight, Tiger does play this ball but it's not the one you can buy, Nike changes the ball and sadly it's a "trade secret", though nike explained:"It's only a slight difference and not something an amateur would notice." well that's great...and even if one could buy the ball Tiger really plays I wouldn't...I'm sticking with my Titleist!!!
