The ProV1 is a wonderful ball, but I find that it spins out of control too much on hard fairway woods or Drivers off the teebox. I swing pretty hard, and have a very steep swing on the irons, and the V1 will get out of control VERY fast, if my swing is sloppy.

Otherwise - they're GREAT, very nice soft feeling off the irons, wonderful around the green, etc. etc. I wish they were not so expen$ive - the ProV1X is a better ball for me.

Another factor is what I call the "ProV1 Love Factor". Many people insist this ball is the "holy grail" of golf balls, but it's NOT..........there are plenty of premium balls out there that perform almost equally as well, and cost less. I see a lot of people who blindly play the ProV1 for no other reason that brand recognition - Yes, it's a good ball, but there are others, folks!
