Which golf ball spins more Pro V1 or Pro V1x?

Question

I read that Pro V1s are softer; yet, I have found that Pro V1xs spin more with my wedges. Has anyone experienced similar results?

Answer 1

Test results given by the manufacturer are often from "ideal" circumstances, or even from golf robot testing. As you can imagine, this leaves a little wiggle room for many players' games. Personally, I believe what I see for myself. If you spin it well with the ProV1x, so be it.

Answer 2

pro v1  more dimples and softer cover means more spin

Answer 3

The ProV1x's are designed for a lower ball flight with less spin, but with a soft feel around the green.  They are made for players with a very high clubhead speed that generate way to much spin for a normal ProV1.  I have found this to be true every time I have played them.  I like the regular ProV's because of thier softer feel and playability, and the nice touch that they provide around the greens.

Answer 4

According to the latest issue of Golf Magazine the Pro V1x spins more than the Pro V1.  Pro V1x-12,299 rpm and the Pro V1- 11,914 rpm.
