What’s everyone’s experience with the left dash. My fitter recommended it for me due to my higher swing speed/ high spin swing. I normally play the pro v1 and don’t have trouble checking it up on a green or spinning it back. I would like a little more height on my drives though. Would my experience holding greens and spinning the ball back be similar? Thanks
I usually find those much deeper in the woods than the ProV1’s & ProV1x’s.

Odd considering they have less spin than both of those.
You will sacrifice some spin into greens. What’s your swing speed?

Ya that’s my on course average. I can get to 120 if I try to really hit it but it gets real iffy on where the ball will go at that speed for me.
They are ridiculously good balls. I do not play them (I’ve bought two boxes to test in the past), I play maxfli tour x for now for the price. I feel like every guy on tour would use them if they played on softer greens, but only the guys who are fast enough to make up for the lost spin do.

116 with a 44.5 inch driver
Is that your on course average? They are a legit cheater ball off the tee imo

I’ll buy a dozen and see what happens
I’ve been playing it since 2019 and won’t ever change. it’s such a good ball. The only caveat I’d put on it is that it’s maybe less ideal if you play on super firm super fast greens, because it won’t bite much on chips.
@Jory
When you are playing on super firm greens do you usually just play a different ball or bite the bullet? I’d say my greens tend to be a medium on the scale in terms of firmness and speed.

I’ll play regular v1x if the greens are really hard. But honestly that’s only if I go on a golf trip haha.
Don’t play much anymore, but I notice a dramatic distance off the tee and no real difference with iron or chipping spin compared to the V1X.
I love them. Great distance and feel for me.
Longest drives ever with them. Longest is 309 and I am typically 250-275 total. Ironically I had my 2 longest drives on the same day with them. 309 and 308. I tried them because I read good things and had a Dicks gift card. I can definitely see myself buying more. They are a little clicky off the putter but that’s no big deal.
@Ashwin
Did you still find yourself spinning enough to hold greens and not run all over the place?

It depends on the green. I typically play very firm greens so it’s hard to make anything stick. So I typically play shorter and anticipate release. Softer greens they are fine on.
