Thanks for the ball Titleist, a very pleasant surprise.
I found the velocity balls to have a really solid feel. The Solo however a super, more forgiving feel and just as long so i will certainly be using them again.

Thanks for the golf balls. I have posted a previous experience but now I would like to update the experience when playing with in better conditions.
I tried the NXT Tour S first and found it a really soft around the greens, giving me more control than the previous NXT Tour. All this with no loss of distance so it is a real move forward.
I Then tried the new NXT Tour. This seemed to give me a little extra distance but although better than last years Tour, it didn't feel quite as good as the S around the greens.
So from now on I will be using the NXT Tour S. Thanks Titleist!!

Lovely surprise, thank you so much. Tried the new NXT tour, good ball, seemed very similar to the old. However I am very impressed with the NXT tour s. Really good feeling off the driver, long and straight and very good around the green, great stopping power.I play the srixon soft feel a lot, purely because of the feel, but the NXT tour S takes it to a new level. I have been telling all my playing partners to invest in some of these. A real eye opener and the only ball I need from now on. Thanks again.

Tried out the new NXT Tour ball in a recent winter league match, noticed slightly more length a definite improvement in control and consistency, all of which contributed to a 5&4 win, happy days.

Thank you Titleist for sending me the Velocity and DT Solo golf balls.
Having used both balls I am impressed how good both balls feel around the green, so not much in it between the two in that department.
Again both the Velocity and the DT Solo had good flight, but the Velocity seemed to have slightly greater distance.
I did shoot me best round with the Velocity and I feel it worked better for me than DT Solo.
However the DT Solo is still a good ball.
Thanks

Tried both the DT Solo and Velocity balls last week for the first time and didn't find I was hitting one further than the other so from a consistency point of view I was happy. I played the majority of my round with the DT Solo as I felt much more comfortable striking the ball and controlling the distance.

Neil,
I played in our first Medal of the year on Sunday with the balls you sent out. I used the NXT Tour on the front nine and the NXT Tour S on the back nine. Not much difference score wise but found the Tour S was a lot longer off the tee. Highlight of the day was hitting the par five 16th easily in two and just lipping out for eagle. Overall I thought the Tour was slightly better as I found the Tour S just a little to soft for my game. Thanks for balls it was a nice surprise.

Finally got out on the course to try the new NXT Tour S.. 1st Tee 3 iron smashed it straight down the middle and loved the feeling off the club face!
Like the feel and control around the green.. though my short game was a little rusty after a 3 week lay off! Will be paying a visit to shops to buy some more!

Hi Titleist I'd just like to say thanks for the golf balls to try, the Velocity ball I really liked, giving me I beleve an extra 20 yards on my driving and being straight and high with my Irons. I've yet to give the DT solo a decent try, putting the one I tried into a lake (they don't float) so will give the other one a chance to shine in the near future.
Thanks again

Recieved my NXT Tour S recently and played with a friend over his, long, home course over the next couple of days. Finished my third round with the same ball I started with which is a new one on me. Love the feel of the ball and feel confident trying to move the ball rather than just hit it as hard as I can.
Many thanks

Thanks for the samples - a very welcome surprise!
I got out onto the course twice this week to try out the new Velocity balls and eventually managed to lose both after 30 holes!!! I thought the performance was on a par with other 'Distance' balls (I have used a Distance model in the recent past) so that the Velocity ball (like another manufacturer's equivalent) I thought felt 'hard' and not in a very comforting way.
I am looking forward to trying out the DT SoLo on my next outings but to be honest, After trying the online Ball Fitting guide, I'm going through a transition / trial between AD333 and NXT Tour S at the moment.
...I'm not sure that either the Velocity or DT SoLo balls are going to find higher favour than those?

Hi Can you advise on the different characteristics between the Pro v1, Prov1x, NXT Tour & Tour S. I'm looking to change from the Callaway Tour iz what Titleist ball would you recomend.

Have now played the new NXT Tour and NXT Tour S sample balls over both parkland and links courses. The Tour has been my ball of choice for some time, and still like the new Tour. However, the new Tour S feels noticeably better off the club face and I was particularly impressed with it on the links courses on and around the greens.I've bought my first dozen Tour S and envisage this being my ball of choice from now on.

First outing with the new Velocity ball at Easter and it worked brilliantly. Long off the driver, good spin close up and some long putts rolling in. I went for the double digits to be a little different and they look great.

Thanks for the NXT Tour and Velocity balls.I have to say although I liked them both very much the NXT ball is heading straight into my bag. I have found another 10 yards off the tee and seem to have the same feel around the greens as before so its a bonus all round
Thanks Roy C
