    When I step up to the first tee, golf ball in hand, I usually show my playing partner a Pro V1 with the number 1 and pink dots. 

    As for Team Titleist Staff member Rick V., it's always a high number on his Pro V1x. And Team Titleist Manager Mike D. prefers to see the number 9 on his Pro V1x. 

    So in our latest quick poll, we want to know ... what's your play number preference? Vote below and feel free to share the story (or superstition) behind your play number.

    I'm a low number guy - the last thing I want to see on the golf course are crooked numbers like 6, 7 or 8. I've received a dozen balls with my first custom number - 61, which despite the wisecracks from my buddies is not my age, but birth year.

    For me it's 21.  That was always my number when I played basketball and has sort of evolved into "my number" over the years.

    Not that I really needed an excuse to head over to the range for lunch, but I figured I'd snap a pic of my Pro V1x while I was there... Here is one of my trusty #9's ready to roll. Looking forward to teeing it up at Josh's event this weekend!

    Always #13, my Lucky number.  And I get either TIGER or WIDESPREAD PANIC on the side. I still use a marker but they are easier to identify.

    I still have a sleeve of the #13 TIGER Pro V1x's laying around. I was thinking of using them in the rematch.

    I have a custom 73 ball, I'm thinking 83 might have been a more realistic number. I did manage to get my first hole in one with my first sleeve of custom ProV1's so there's no changing now.

    I play Pro V1x with number 58 and my initials MSH on the side.  

    I was born in 85, but don't want to shoot 85, so I reversed the numbers on the balls (superstitious I know!)

    Play well!

    89 - it's the score I want to break.  I've never shot better, but I will do it next year before I run out of these ProV1Xs so that when I order my next couple dozen and I can pick a lower number.

    High Numbers on the Pro V1x and my twitter handle on the side (so if I lose my ball perhaps I can gain a twitter follower when it's found!).

    I got a box of high numbers once a few years ago, and I've always preferred them since.

    So many people play Titleist prov1s. That's why I like to play high number balls to distinguish mine from my playing partners' balls on the rare occasions we are all near each other. That and because high numbers are cool.

  12. Rick D

    It has to be low numbers ProV1x. I have never even bought a box of high numbers. The number 1 is my first choice because Titleist has always been the number one ball in golf. The ball I will not play are the 3's -- because I don't ever want to think about the possibility of a three putt. #Superstitions

    I play #19 for my favorite hockey legend, Steve Yzerman.

    My play number preference is #1.  Every year I order my ProV1s with the #1 so every time I look at the ball I am reminded that my goal on every shot and every hole is to be the best I can and to always give the effort to be #1.

  15. I like to step to every shot and looking at ball and likening what l see and that includes the number on the ball

    If I'm buying them off the shelf I prefer #3 or #4. If they're a custom number, either #27 or #44. Simply, huh?

    Gil you and I should share a couple dozen. I only want 1's and 2's .

    I'm down for whatever as long as they are Titleist Pro V1's

    10's are my number.  Received them at the TT event in Norton, MA last year (I was on the team that earned 10 points in our Ryder Cup style matches).  They don't seem to get lost and I always have great thoughts about the day with TT when I play them!

    Custom # 44

  21. I always play a Titleist ProV1x number 1, with a blue dot above the "l" in Titleist. I have been playing that ball, with the same dot for years. It started back when I played in high school and my dad told me to take it "1 shot at a time" by having the number 1, it was a constant reminder. I used that ball in all of my college, and ameteur events. I only use Titleist, and always will. Other companies try to get me to switch by giving me free balls, and other on-staff PGA members try to get me to switch, but I refuse too. There is something about the ball that no other company can compare with. Team Titleist for life!

    Most of the time it's low numbers, but save the #1's for outings and tournament rounds.  

  23. I have never had a preference as long as it is a Pro V1x. However when I won a free dozen with a custom play number I went with 89 my birth year. I really enjoy the way that looks and will look to order more custom play number 89 X's in the future!

    My ProV1x has the number 63 on it. My lowest competitive rounds score (twice!).

    I like playing the high numbers because most people don't seem to like using them.  I have no problem looking at a 5, 6, 7 or 8, as long as it's on my ball and not my scorecard.

    I used to wear 13 when I played baseball and like the number so I play 13. It's also the number of Championships that my favorite team, the Green Bay Packers, have won, which leads the NFL. Hoping for 14 at the end of this season.
