  1. Hi Folks - so I decided to buy a dozen AVX, as I was looking for a lower spinning ball off the tee. After hitting a variety of tee shots today, I did pick up a few yards off the tee with a lower ball flight. However, theball felt dead off the face. It was worse with irons and wedges, in which shots felt very soft but were noticeably lower spinning, and I had difficulty checking wedge shots. I switched to ProV1X the final 6 holes, and instantly my wedges checked, iron shots were predictable, and didn’t notice much if anything off the tee.

    My advice on trying this ball: unless you are playing in high wind, have been fitted specifically to this ball, and don’t mind having your irons and wedges roll rather than check, I recommend you stick to ProV1 or ProV1X.

  2. I actually think the velocity is similar in performance and half the cost.

    I think the avx is kinda a flop for Titleist.

    The AVX is a good ball and comparing it to the Velocity is out of bounds. I have played both. Not in the same league. As a Titleist loyalist, I have at least tried all the balls more than one time and am loyal to the Prov1. The AVX has similarities to the Prov1 and the Prov1x as designed. I find that it is a few yards longer that the Prov1 after trying it for a month when they were first introduced, but opted to stay with my Prov1. I was fitted by Titleist to see what ball was best for me. Titleist offers an array of balls for different skill levels and pocket books. Of course during the spring Titleist has an offering to all their loyalist where we can get our favorite balls at 4 dozen for the price of three. Most of us stock up then, therefore saving a great deal on our favorites. Velocity is a hard ball designed for distance. Frankly not something that I choose to put in my bag. As to which ball I play in different weather conditions, same ball.
  4. The AVX is a great ball for golfers who spin the Pro V's to much. If you are a high spin/high flight player the AVX is a really good option. It has great feel and can still stop on a dime. Why would I want my ball to spin back 10' or 6'? I want it to go the yardage I want. I do not get why most amateur golfers want to spin it back when they do not hit it far enough to begin with.
