    I was able to get a sleeve of this year's test balls from the pro. They look like AVX, but we are supposed to test, not talk. Anyone else ?

    Maybe I'll get lucky when I get home. Going to SW FL for X-mas and can wring it out while I'm there.

    Hey Don, where you headed in SW FL? I'm playing a few rounds in Sarasota over the holiday. You close by?

    Will be staying just inland of Sanibel Island. Haven't gotten any times yet, but plan on 2 rounds during the 22-24. ..Have car can travel. ...Starting to doubt the box with 2 sleeves of unmarked balls will be getting to me before this weekend.

    I never follow the rules, and it's cold up here. They putt nice and bounce off my wedge beautifully. Anyone seen'em fly ?/

    I was given a dozen of the experimental balls. I gave sleeves to 3 buddies and played 3. Who do I contact at Titleist to give them my feedback?

    I played the 3 balls until I lost them. Was in Austin area in early Dec. 70 and sunny. Perfect conditions.

    I must say it was like hitting a Pinnacle. I picked up 5-10 yards on drives, but they had little spin around the greens. They felt and sounded “hard”. Jumped off my putter too.

    Went back to the ProV1x and all was fine.

    Whatever this ball is supposed to be I don’t know, but they could save a ton in R&D costs by taking a gold Pinnacle and stamping Titleist on it.

    EXOs, more than likely

    I thought the avx was a bit of a flop?

    Not at all! Definitely niche but that niche is rabid. I actually think it would be attractive to most golfers but they don't give it the time of day. For instance, out my core 8 core golf buddies, 3 of them are obsessed with AVX. So clearly 3/8 out of all golfers should play them ;)

    Normally use AVX but tried your experimental ball. I really like the results so far couple of rounds in the 70’s. Low spin with driver and good feel with short game

    It would be good to have a comparison side by side with the AVX. I've been impressed with it as an alternative to a Pro V on wet and windy days.

    so, up here in the great white north and nobody else has the new test ball, with AVX dimples and feel. I feel special !!
