As per everyone else this is a great ball, solid feel of the clubs and fantastic spin. I am still surprised at the spin factor as it allow me to reall stick the ball whereas in the past, using higher handicap balls meant i'd have to account for run and play a different selection of shots. Living in Brisbane Australia means that we don't have the supersoft greens the US does, but at better clubs with well maintained greens this ball is awesome. I hit an uphill draw 130m with an 8 iron yesterday at Indooroopilly GC and the ball grabbed so fast it checked up striaght into the air and softly rolled to the right of the pitch mark. Incredible stuff. The cover is as everyone says not as durable as it could be but not as bad as a lot of other premium balls out there. Putting is great, and even though Wilson might says that a lot of the TU are unbalanced straight out of the box, i like the feel off my teardrop putter a lot and it gives me confidence when putting vs lighter balls. Overall a fantastic ball, and hackers like me shoudln't be getting lucky to use such a great product so effectively! :) Customer Service None needed but great website.

Wowee! I usually play the Pro V1 but while I was on the 8th, I fished one of these bad boys out and played it for the remaining 10 holes just to compare it to the Pro V1. It's not as long as the Pro V1 but darn good enough. Man, can I spin this ball! I had no idea of how much this ball spins that it actually spun back into a lake on #2 the next round out. That was a sad moment. My only gripe about teh ball is the cover: not quite as durable as the Pro V1's. If you can't afford to play the pro V1 then do your slef a favor and get this ball, the next best thing. Value wise, this ball just leaves the Pro V1 in the dust. I'm what you would call a paranoid golfer damnding the best equipment and in high school golf, I have to perform, so the Pro V1 is still on the tee.

compared to the pro v1 the tour ultimate is just as long, softer, spins more and flies a little lower. However, durability is pathetic. Hit a crisp wedge or splash it into a bunker and the cover is ruined. |

great ball. just as soft as the tour pro but more distance and control. chip shot spin is also great(better than the prov1) this ball is maybe 2 or 3 yards shorter than the prov1 but are a little softer and spin a little more. i feel these balls are very durable i just played 9 and there is not a scratch on it. Customer Service great Similar Products Used: callaway rule 35 red/blue tour pro. prov1 smartcore |

This is the best ball that I''ve played. I am a 16 year old, 12 handicap. I was looking for a ball with some distance off the tee with low spin rates, but high spin rates coming into the green, with soft feel on the green. I have played numerous balls, and for a while I liked the Maxfli Revolution, however, one day, a playing partner of mine gave me a Strata Tour Ultimate ball. This ball was easily longer than the Revolution, and straighter. The wedge shots were much higher and were easier to control. The ball putts pretty true also. It is easy to get this ball up, and is very versitle. Spin is apparent when you want it, but not when you don''t. Long off the driver, high with wedges, putts like a dream, what else could you ask for? I highly recommend this ball Similar Products Used: Nike- Tour Accuracy TW, Tour Accuracy, Spin Control, Distance Control Titleist- NXT Tour, Professional, ProVI Maxfli- Revolution, Revolution solid, Elite |

Strength:

Weakness:
None This ball has some legs (roll of the tee) it is extremely long off the tee and when you get close to the green with any type of wedge, it stops or spins back just a little bit. If you have trouble getting the ball to stop on the green, try this one only catch is, if you have a slice or a strong fade, the fade/slice goes a long way. It putts very well. I like this ball better than any ball out there. No Strata commercial has lie so it is the truth, long off the tee and accurate off the irons and putts truer than a wound ball. it was 10 dollars for a sleeve, now i want the dozen.

STRATA Tour Ultimate
Strength:

Weakness:
None I have been using Titleist golfballs since 1972 and lately I have been using the Pro V1. I have been unable to find the Pro V1 in my area and a club professional suggested the STRATA Tour Ultimate. In the absence of the Pro V1, I used the Professional 100 and it was a good ball but I took the advise of the club professional and bought a sleeve of the Strata Tour Ultimates. I was very pleased with the feel and spin and the distance was fine. I did find that my original Ping Eye 2''s did waffle the cover but that is negligable since this product is available, unlike the Titleist Pro V1''s, NXT Tours, and NXT Distance balls. The Strata Tour Ultimate is now my ball of choice due to the way it played and its availability. Thanks Strata Similar Products Used: None |

I was passing through Target with my wife when these caught my eye, i heard they were supposed to be longer than the regular pro, with more spin and the same putter feel. Similar Products Used: All, except Maxfli A10. |
