Thanks for the review. Lots of good info there. I am in the same position as you. I just recently have switched over to the Pro V1x for good and I will never go back..

Thanks so much for the reply, Michael.

It will definitely be on ongoing process until the snow begins to fly here in Massachusetts. And to your point, my inconsistency makes it a tough choice. But the more I think about it:

- Inconsistency off the tee could sometimes lead to bunkers, heavy rough, trees, water, OB, lost ball...all sorts of trouble that could lead to a big number.

- Inconsistency on and around the green could lead to a 10 foot putt versus a 4 foot putt, potentially costing me a stroke.

Seems that maybe, for a 19 HC like myself that loses several strokes every round due to 2 or 3 blow-up holes following bad drives, NXT Tour might be the better option.

We'll see. Stay tuned.

Thanks again.

Tim,

I sounds like you're doing everything right here. On course evaluation is the best method to use in determining which golf ball is best for you. By the sounds of it, NXT Tour seems like it might be a good choice too. You made some great observations as to the difference between both that and Pro V1x (such as sidespin and greenside performance), however, I can definitely agree that this process can be tough when shots are a bit inconsistent. My advice would be to continue the comparison process and get a good overall assessment. One thing to keep in mind is what part of your game do you put more effort into when trying to lower your scores, your short game or long game? Pro V1x has better short game control for you and NXT Tour works better on longer shots for sidespin control, so the answer to that question could be the decision making factor as to which golf ball fits your overall game. I hope this helps.
