Hi guys,
I'm an 8 handicap and just about exclusviely play ProV1s and ProV1x balls. I'm in a scramble for work next week and we've gotten a friendly little rivalry going in the office about the long drive holes.

I'd really really REALLY like to shut these guys up and take home the title. I was wondering if anyone had a go-to ball for these types of situations? It won't be played from tee to green, as this is a scramble, i'll hit it once and put it back in the bag.

Lay it on me!

FOO KING LONG golf balls

I guess the first question is that you play Pro V1s and ProV1xs normally. They are very different balls, so what do you get out of each one that you like and that will help narrow down your choices. from there, it would depend on swing speed and what you can compress to maximize distance without ballooning.

If illeagal is permitted- Foo King Long balls.

I've always found that while the ProV1x is a bit longer off the tee for me, it spins a bit more. So that being said i'll switch between the two depending on the course i'm playing and how i'm swinging. My driver SS is around 105-108mph.

For the ball, it would have to be legal and off the shelf, nothing special mail order.

The foo king long balls won the distance test here on the site but are illegal. I find it interesting that the 1x spins more for you than the regular pro-v1. The v1 is their spinniest ball.

I think nike crush balls have a little more distance, i think i saw a review on them here.

I'll vouch for the Crush being long I picked up a dozen a few weeks ago at PGA SS since it included a towel and I had left mine in the dryer. Little longer for me over several rounds, actually a pretty darn good ball all around. Better feel than the HX Hot to boot.

I found a Pennacle Dimension the other day and decided to try it out. I hit some of the longest drivers ever. Might want to give it a try.

Agreed. Saw this headcover and balls in a store near me today.

I hit the zstarx further than most any ball I have teed up. If you have not tried them yet, grab a sleeve.

The Slazanger extreme raw distance (green box) balls are pretty good for distance and rock gardens. These balls aren't always going to feel good and I would aks them to stop on a green but they get the job done in the distance department and they are the balls used by the ReMax long drive champion although he may use the regular raw distance.

Good luck

Pinnacle used to be the longest, they are so hard i worry about caving in my driver face!

[tactWeiccaf]

Pinnacle is a great long distance ball. I have been in a few long drive contests and a Pinnacle ball was always used. I felt weak driving it 305-310. The top guys were crushing it 380+!!!

When I play in scrambles... I use one ball off the tee and one for approaches into the green and putting. I have found that for me nothing flies like an "Ultra" That thing is a rock. Also, Nike Juice, and Pinnacle Distance are all pretty good.
