The soft core adult film music is an interesting twist 😂

Died of laughter because of this choice of music being added to the ball-hitting section 😂

I never knew I needed watching Mikey swinging with jazz flute playing in my life. But this is the new gold standard

The perfect elevator, ball-striking, TXG lounge music 🎉🎉

I know Mike didnt love doing this but I have to say he represents a HUGE population of golfers and this testing was very telling for the golfers who swing and most likely play like he does. He should do MANY MANY ball tests for the average golfer.....watching robots hit or watching boderline professionals hit and test does nothing for the large population of 8-20 HDCP players......

Love it guys! Let’s see the Wilson Staff as well.

Chrome Tour X would be the apples to apples comparison so this is a bit confusing 🤔 This one is almost identical to the ProV1 compression.

Love ball testing videos. I'm always searching for the right ball.

How about adding in the new Wilson Staff Model in as well. Very underrated.

Is Chrome Tour not the wrong ball to put up against the other X balls? Would Chrome Tour X not be the appropriate test? Ball names are so confusing lol.

Great job guys bringing us a very anticipated comparison. I liked Mike's point of view, but I would have loved to hear Ian's point of view also.

Good test guys, would love to see a review/test of the new Wilson Staff and Wilson Staff X balls

Love this as I was just asking for ball testing since callaway really switched things up. Please test the full Bridgestone range as it seems they've made some pretty significant changes this year too. Would be great to see you test all four of the tour B balls this year.

Sounds like much more ball comparison testing is needed! Love the content guys!

I tried to pay attention, but I just could not stop dancing to the funky music.

Would love to see Srixon - the halfprice wonder - present.

I’ve recently switched to the new Wilson Staff Model. Longer than a Pro V, with more spin around the greens. It’s probably very similar to the Pro V1X. Example…I hit the Wilson from 65 yards yesterday, to a very small, firm, fast green. It took 2 hops, and stopped dead, next to the hole. I’ve always had trouble holding that green, from such a short distance, with any other ball. Jus sayin…

Today, I invested deeply (24 balls) into Wilson Staff Triad Yellow. Had white ones once before, good ball, distance and control, and moderately priced.

We need a ball bracket boys!

Sensational choice introducing the music

Love this video. I was fit for the Prov1x at TXG many moons ago. About to do some indoor testing to see if it is still the ball for me. Have also dabbled with the TM tour response.

They one we’ve all been waiting for 🏆

Mikey glad you did the testing, especially the driver. You hit like me and a lot others. Don’t be embarrassed

Good test lads. Balls tests are tricky as no one is a robot and delivery will always alter a bit no matter who is holding the club. I am claiming that 2024 is year for Wilson Staff to really break through. I'm hearing awesome things on their new Tour Balls. I'd like to see the channel launch a few to show the masses. I played their Triad all last year.... at $49CAD, what a great ball. I'm curious about their 2024 Tour balls.

Can you do a video of how to pick the best ball? There are so many now I don't know how to pick what will suit my game the best

I like seeing the dynamic loft there as well for reference. Ty

Wish these balls matched up better. Would love to see these videos redone with Chrome Tour X, ProV1X, TP5 and Chrome Tour, ProV1, and TP5x.

Why test titlest high spin vs TM low spin ball?

Great to see the 2023 Pro V1 X confirms my ball of choice!

Don't leave out the new Staff model X....great ball.

Where’s the Bridgestone ball? Criminal not to include!

Man! Thought i was back on Love boat again for a spell.

Mikey did very well in this test. Very consistent on the strikes with all three clubs across the ball range. He's getting much better performance with the driver than he showed a year ago, so he's definitely on the right path.

i’m confused as to why you compared the low spin Chrome Tour ball and low spin TP5X to the high spin ProV1X model over traditional ProV1 which sits in a more equal spin and launch window?

Now do this same test but with the Chrome Tour X because wouldn't all of those balls be the most similar? Thanks!

So glad the videos are back to just you two fellas - no more brand reps lurking in every video

Love these ball tests. These new Callaway’s intrigue me. Figured they were just Chrome Soft with an identity crisis, as trust wasn’t back in the brand after the debacle a few years back

Pretty sure all Callaway marketing is the Chrome Tour is there direct competitor to the ProV1 so this is odd test?

I couldn't stop laughing with that "Bom Chicka Bom Bom" music in the background 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

With Taylormade, isn't it backwards---the TP5 is the spinnier ball? Why did you test the less spinny, TP5X against these other models?

Tiger did help with input on the 2024 X said it spins more around the greens than previous years a touch less than the XS but adds 1-2mph of ball speed with driver.

Haven't tried Chrome Tour yet but put some Chrome Soft X LS in the bag for winter use just before the new ones arrived. I'm really impressed in wet & windy British winter conditions, having played mainly ProV1X (with the odd phase on Bridgestone Tour B XS because I was brought up on balata and also because Tiger 😂). It does feel really solid off driver/3W. Definitely gonna check the Chrome Tour X this summer. And I always found TP5X too clicky off my wedges and putter so....

Please get rid of the music 🤣

I just pre-ordered my dozen of New Tiger Edition balls 😊 Heart broken to need to choose a different ball because I love the #1 balls and Tiger Stamp. I find out Bridgestone is releasing TourBx Tiger ball at the perfect time for me to stay comfortable with what I’m playing with.

Nice to see Chrome Tour doing exactly what it's advertised to do (with very tight standard devs too), and Mikey's findings match with what I've seen from it on course. As you mentioned, would be really curious to see how Mikey would jive with CTX. For the player that struggles to keep full iron and wedge spin from getting too high, Chrome Tour does that without feeling excessively crispy. CT hung with the other two balls off the driver despite having a softer core.

when you say Chrome Soft is it a habit/slip and you're actually referring to Chrome Tour?

I got a couple Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour Xs handed to me when I demoed the AI Smoke stuff. Personally I am between the TO5 and Pro V1X. For me, the perform very similar where the TP5X is definitely not a ball for me.

Great test, would like to see a Ball Test Bracket with more brands and models.

I would be more interested in the direct to consumer bells, vice, snell, etc?

I would love to see tests for some of the mid-tier, not only against one another in those levels, but against the closest tier. I'm thinking like Taylormade Tour Response vs TP5 vs Pro V1 vs Chrome Soft, etc

It's great to see how much Mike's game has improved to pro level!!

During the tee height testing I noticed Mikey’s optimum launch angle was around 15 degrees with less than 2000 rpm spin, but in this test most of launch angles were 10 - 11 degrees and more spin.

I didn't play X balls until i found a TP5 X pix in the holidays... Gave it a round and loved it... Always thought it would be to spinny.

Interesting test but surprised you didn’t do Chrome Tour X with ProV1x and TP5. Those are 3 similar ball categories. The three you did was one category from each manufacturer.

I’ve always heard how incredible the triad and the staff model are from Wilson. Would love to see the staff model x thrown in this mix

In simple and general terms...tour is lower spinning, prov1x is higher spinning and tp5x is lower spinning, shouldnt they have traded to prov1 for more comparable balls? Other high spinning balls would've been tour x, tp5, and prov1x right?

Really keen to see what you guys think of the new AVX and the Wilson Staff

When you said the Titleist sounds more like the Taylormade it made me think about this fun fact that may attribute to the sound difference..the ProV1 line, TP5 line, and Maxfli Tour line all feature the same style of cover ...being cast urethane, whereas Srixon, Bridgestone, and Callaway all use TPU... This was as of the 2023 lines.

Can you guys test some more mid-range golf balls? Golf is expensive enough then having to spend 65 bucks on 12 balls...how about testing balls in the 40-50 range? What do you think of the Z-star tour?

Extremely helpful, thank you!

My own testing, showed the Srixon Z-Star Diamond to be very close in launch, spin and distance to the ProV1X. I find it does 'feel' a smidgeon firmer, but otherwise it is a really good high spin alternative. And Mikey is right about the Srixon durability. I took one out of play yesterday, after 3 rounds. I didn't need to, but it had developed an aversion to going in the hole 🙄

Great to see Mikey swing with a comparable swingspeed (105 mph). I think alot of us better can relate to those stats 👍

Any chance you guys do the Vice golf balls soon?

I use blades (34-degree, 7i) and they are getting a little too spinny. I think that it's time I try that Chrome Soft.

What about the Bridgestone xs I personally love the feel of that ball. Especially the yellow one.

Maxfli Tours are really overlooked by most.... in my sim they compare to the prov v's and tp5 at substantial discount

No way! Keep ball testing Mikey! It tells us mortals how it comes out! And did I see a 106 mph!?! 💪🏻

That first shot at the intro sounded like a Q-star. Just a polymer rock.

This is why I play the pro v1x for years I have similar swing and numbers to Mikey

I’ve been asking for this for so long!

Played 27 holes yesterday with a Yellow TP5x, mid handicapped 12.8. Was dissatisfied with it. TM tour preferred works as well as Callaway crome softs are good. THOUGHT'S?

Love the new ball rollouts more than the club rollouts. Ordered 2 new boxes of the Callaway Chrome Tour Xs. Taylor Made is losing out on sales with their weird rollouts of quirky Dragon Themed balls in the new 2024 Ball. I play the Chrome Tour X, TP5, and the ProV1x. I enjoy all 3 brands and versions

Did some initial on course testing my normal Pro V1X vs TP5X. TP5X was consistently longer from tee and on fairway shots. May be due to what looked like a lower height and better roll out. 100 yard shots were pretty equal. Short game and putting was advantage Pro V1X. The TP5X is very clicky around the greens, especially noticeable on longer putts. Feel on shorter shots was poor on TP5X for me. More testing to come to see if I can overcome the short game issues with the TP5X.

How about Chrome Tour vs Chrome Soft X?

love thse test but i want to see the test with callaway tour x

We need a review of the new Bridgestone BX ball

Why isn’t the chrome tour x not involved?? Isn’t it in the same category as the v1x and tp5x

For those of us who don't get golf balls free, how was the durability of the Chrome tour cover? I played Chrome Soft X, and while a good ball, it was much easier to nick the cover (and I don't swing fast or have balls ricochet off cart paths and trees).

Love the content - keep at it!

Can you please do a test with all the regular balls against each other (prov1 vs chrome tour vs tp5) and also all the Xs against each other (prov1x vs chrome tour X vs TP5x) please

It’s great seeing you guys hit, but maybe a robot driver would be best to setup proper impact and launch conditions on the ball test. Mikey did great but even he said he was done.

1000% in for the music.

Interesting take. All the literature is saying Chrome Tour is closer to ProV1 than the ProV1x.

What about the left hash prov

Great test guys!!

Enjoyed that as always ty , my swing speed is 80 mph with a 7 iron could anyone recommend a ball please not sure im fast enough to get the best compression with these balls , any help would be great .... Jules ⛳👍

I disagree, tp5x was definitely the best ball for Mikey. He may a couple of better strike swings with prov1x which sqews the numbers. Take the center strike of prov1x out so you are comparing apples to apples, tpc by far was the better ball. All his strikes were heel strikes except for the couple of prov1x.

I just started using pro v1 and i love them, i now know why they are expensive.... The covers on them are tough. I top a few shot bladed a few more and you could see nothing on the cover...

Got to ask Why not compare three X versions? Seems odd to put chrome tour in with these and not the chrome tour x? Hopefully you guys do an apples to apples comparison as well.

Bold choice on the music

So pro v1x is spinnier off a wedge AND longer off a driver? sounds like a big win

Did I see correctly that he was 3+ degrees up on Prov, 2 degrees on T5 & 1 on Calloway? (Driver)

hes a machine

Driver, irons, wedges, balls. Titleist is no. 1.

Love that half zip white top, where to get it may I ask

My favorite ball driver to 5 iron is the prov1x. How ever 6 iron to putter I prefer the softer prov1. Driver 118mph club 185mph ball.

Pro V1X, king on tour

let's go!! been waiting for this test

I’d like to see a comparison (best ball) from some budget end balls like ad333, callaway super soft and srixon soft feel as not everyone uses premium balls

So if you want less spin go with Callaway?
