I recently purchased a box just to try. I found this ball to be just as long off the tee as the TaylorMade TP5 that I typically play. I also found more fairways. I typically miss about half the fairways over the course of a round, but I only missed 1 with this ball. The usual bigger than wanted draw plagues me, but with this ball it was a gentle 10 - 15 yard draw instead of the typical 30 - 40 yard draw I encounter. My irons felt crisp and I got the expected distance. The ball flight matched my typical flight when playing the TP5. I didn't see the amount of spin I am used to off the approach shots, but it was enough to stop the ball. I didn't see the spin that would back the ball up, but it would hop and stop from 160 yards and in to about 70. From 70 and in I would like to ha e a bit more spin, but the spin I got on these was adequate. It was comfortable to chip and pitch around the greens, but Putting felt great and the ball rolled true. All in all, I am looking forward to more golf with these. As a mid handicap golfer who struggles with consistency, I found that in this ball it seems. In the 1 round I've played with this ball so far I shot 10 strokes under my handicap! Finding more fairways certainly aided in that.
