How can I get on a list to test them? Do you just have to be an online member?

I played a round with the Test balls I received back in Octiber and they are definitely longer of the tee and the ball flies straighter and seems hotter off the face. Ball spins more with my wedge shots into the greens. I actually had the ball spin and back up about three to four feet on several approach shots to the green which i have never done with any consistency in the past. Overall; i am sold and i am looking forward to buying a dozen when they are released. I hope Titleist offers the specail in which you can order three dozen and get one free!!!

I had a chance this last Friday and Saturday to try the new Pro-V1 with a friend of mine. For me, they were a tiny bit hard (towards the Prov-1X). I usually play the X except the last few rounds because it has been so cold. It is very much the same for me with the spin around the greens. My friend says he hits them a lot further than 2012 model, but to me it was hard to tell any difference because we had wind and dry weather this particular day. My friend usually hit it around 245-255 but was hitting the ball 275-280.

I was hitting it from 275-300 and sometimes longer (with the wind of course. I am going to wait until they come out this Friday before getting some more and buy both kinds and give it a better test before I purchase some logo balls.

Received these as well great feel but did notice some "wear & tear" so figured that these are the x version.

I live in Iowa and received my in early November. Was able to play couple of cold weather rounds with them, was very impressed with the spin control on mid irons. The most impressive feature to me is the cover. Very playable, but the most durable cover From titleist I have ever played. Played 1 ball for 3 rounds, the only noticeable mark on the ball was a shot I bellied from the rough. Great ball, can not wait to play them next spring and while on a couple trips this winter.

My buddy Scott gave me a Pro-V 2013 Test ball to try. I guard it now like one of my children. Absolutely the best feeling ball I have ever hit. Looking forward to them hitting the stores so I can stop searching for what seems like eternity when occasionally missing the fairway. Great work again Titleist!

that is what i thought too when i got mine

If still available I'd love to try the new balls against my recently purchased dozen of Pro V1s

More than likely February, with the remainder of the 913 metals and hopefully the 712U. I did see a commercial for the 2013 ProV1's on The Golf Channel the other day, so maybe they'll ship sooner.

Today I tested the 2013 pro v1 golf balls against my 2012 pro v1.I saw the difference on short game and long game and I'd say the 2013 pro v1's were better by almost every thing.

First impressions on the course (and practice area): Even more spin off wedges than the current Pro V1, checks quickly - even out of the short rough. Also seemed "spinnier" on short to mid-irons. My sense was that the new ball carried four or five yards farther on mid-to-long irons (always welcome). And it seemed the ball flight off the driver was a little lower than the current Pro V1 - a little less driver spin while having more spin on short shots? That's a nice combination. It also seemed that the ball was rolling quicker off the putter face - the result of a softer cover maybe. I'll play again tomorrow and see if there is anything to add.

I wasn't driving consistently enough to really compare distances off the driver - except once: Same swing, same flight, same result ...

The dimple design looks identical to the current Pro V.

I played another round with these balls again today. Same deal. Perfect off the irons and putting. Tough time controlling the spin with the driver, 15 and 19. I started playing a fade instead of my draw and hit some bombs. But it moves more than I would like.

I just got my sleeve of what I assume are the new Pro V1Xs yesterday. I've already set a tee time for Sunday; can't wait to get out there and see the differences between them and the current Pro V1X! Thanks Titleist!

Ron,

Yes, it is a softer feeling ball, but good soft, not dead soft. That was what I was talking about when I said I hit a few that didn’t feel like it was going to get there. But that was the very cool thing about it. You didn’t need to force it. The overall feel off the irons and putter was incredible. So much so, that I would probably switch to it from the X’s and try to control my driver more, rather than hitting the big draw. I only hit about 7 of 14 fairways but really made up for it with every other club. The control and feel from 200 in was as awesome!

Distance with the driver was tough to determine because I was losing the 2013 ProV left a bit. I only hit one drive with pretty much the same ball flight. The x drew about 5 yards less and was about 5 yards further. But this was on a long par 5 and the 2^nd shot (again, same ball flight) is what makes me think of switching. 5 iron from 205. The x hit and rolled off, new ball stuck.

The feel off the driver is a softer but jumps. Hate to sound like a pig, but I’d love to get my hands on the new X’s to try alongside these puppy’s. :)

I too just received the prototype test balls, but have not begun evaluating them yet. They are Pro V1s, I'm sure, based on the dimple pattern and markings. I've tested before - and it IS fun, as if we needed an excuse to go out to the golf course. Although I've not tested them yet, I have made a couple of observations: The color is a slightly different white, a hint of green or blue (or perhaps just less yellow) in the white ball - is this just a difference in finish or a difference in the urethane cover material? And my sense is the cover is a bit softer - based on the sound made when the ball is dropped on a hard surface or contacted by the putter face, a slightly lower pitch to the contact sound. Does this translate into more short game spin and/or more putter feel? Those are things I will look for. It would be interesting to see if others sense a difference in the feel.
