I was looking for a softer feeling ball but did not want to spend $40.00 for a dozen. I was using the Titlest HP2 but that ball was gripping the greens for me. I went into the Sports Authority store here and was shown this ball. I am no way good enough to get my balls to hold the greens like the you see on try but this ball is helping me get pretty darn close to it. If you want a ball that plays close to a Pro V-1 then I think this ball is that. I am now able to bite the greens and not worry about over rolling the greens, and even though this is a three piece high spin ball it still stays pretty straight off the tees too.
