Fun fact.... Dean Snell (owner of Snell) designed the first prov1, but also designed noodle, taylormade penta and MANY other golf balls. Essentially... if it's a golf ball, he at least influenced the design in some way. I just ordered the new snell mtbx's. They have a deal on their website right now on the new balls that they JUST released.

I used to play the pro v1, but I started using the wilson staff triad ball and it was so much better in distance, feel, and spin around the green then the pro v1...

Gabe, you are all about stirring up some controversy this week, man! Love it. As with the golf brands video, I mostly agree with your choices, except for Volvik and Maxfli. Volvik's urethane balls are very good. I like the XT Soft in particular, which is very similar to the Vice Pro Soft or the Taylormade Tour Response. And the S3 and S4 are good ball, although extremely spinny and thus kind of short on distance - similar to the Kirkland or Mizuno tour balls. But they're fine if you don't mind losing some yards with both driver and irons. Maxfli's Tour and Tour X are fantastic. Not only do they test with numbers nearly identical to their Titleist counterparts, but (according to MGS and my experience) the consistency in quality is practically at Titleist levels. And they're, what, $15 cheaper and run specials a lot. Really one you should try, the Maxflis. Thanks for the video, Gabe! Enjoying your content as always.

Nice vid, thanks- I hadn't seen anything from your channel before (subscribed). You're right when you say it's a contentious topic and that folks are never going to be in complete agreement on most of this, but I think maybe you jobbed Volvik a bit by basing your thoughts on experience with a blue one (terrible color)...would be interesting to get your thoughts on how the ball plays. Thanks again for producing/publishing this one.

I have been playing the OnCore for a couple years now. Great balls with 3 levels. Avant for slow swing speed and Elixr for tour grade snd normal seing speed and Vero x1 and now x2 for pro level fast swing speeds. Quick delivery with FedEx and great prices. I have about 12 dozen in my possession. A lot of specials where you buy 2 dz and get a dz free

Volvik S4 is actually a pretty good ball, especially 100 yards and in. I spin the ball too much with my wedges so it's not for me, but I never seen a ball check up so well from 30 - 60 yards.

I found an OnCore just off the 17th fairway of my local track - I had been going through a process of trying to "play every ball" and find something to replace the expensive Titleist. I played the OnCore on the 18th and was so impressed I thought it must have been a fluke. So I seriously tried OnCore after that and immediately made it my no. 1 choice, easily...easily as good as the Titleist and so much more ball for the price. way to go guys at OnCore.

Maxfli Tour X is my ball. I switched from the ProV1X that I’ve played since it came out, about a year ago. As good as anything out there and $60 for two dozen. There are other good, cheaper balls out there, like the Kirkland ball, but none as consistent as the Maxfli Tour balls.

Maxfli felt and performed just as well or better than the ProV! Long with the driver, and high spin around the greens. I was honestly shocked at how good they were. Plus the alignment aid was better, and I think the cover was slightly more durable. After 2-3 rounds the Maxfli balls had zero blemishes. Considering you can buy 4 dozen to bring the cost down to 26 a dozen, I'm all in. I'm calling Maxfli the best ball in the market today.

Today at the course I bought a sleeve to verify my findings and again they went further than the e12, Titelist Velocity and ProV1 by a good 5-10 yards! I usually drive the ball about 220 - today it was 230-233 consistantly! The feel around the green I'll have to adjust too. The Pinnacle Soft (2021) is now my new gamer!

But lately I've been a little disappointed. The last 2 dozen I purchased had some 'duds' in the box. Off the club felt OK, but traveled a good 20 yards less than I was used to. Could be just a coincidence, but for now I am switching to Srixon Soft Feel. The feel a bit 'harder' off the club face and putter face, but they do travel a bit further than even my 50 Elites did before I got the boxes with some duds in them.

I am almost 100% in agreement with this ranking. The only change I would make is that I would move the Bridgestone up to the "Pure Class" catergory. I will admit that I am a bit of a homer for Bstone as I have had the pleasure of getting to meet/know the CEO and a couple of of marketing/social media people as well as being fit by their master ball fitter.

You might move up Callaway if you try the chrome soft with matte finish. When you hit them square, it has that same feeling of hitting a baseball on the sweet spot of the bat. And it goes. Also, thanks to the matte finish, react well around the green and soft feel when putting.

The Oncore was horrible, I have Top Flites that feel softer than that box of Rocks. My favorite 3 are the Kirkland, Seed and Vice Pro.

Probably because it’s the most common “cheap” ball around these days. It’s definitely not a performance ball, but they’re not terrible either. Most golfers, and probably many here saying “I play xxxx ball” struggle to replicate the same swing, or don’t swing hard enough to play tour level balls or notice much performance difference between balls. But there is a lot of marketing behind golf balls and a stigma to using cheaper balls like Noodle, Pinnacle, etc. even though there is nothing wrong with them for 90 percent of golfers. And they are much cheaper to slice into the woods or pond! So in short, I would say play a Noodle or whatever you want, especially as a beginner or casual golfer. Once you work yourself to a lower handicapper you can experiment around and find the ball that delivers the best results for your game and swing, which will be different for everyone.

Always kept and played ProV1. Its been years now and I buy golf balls like any other schmuck. I bought refurbished prov1s for the longest time, but KZread videos convinced me to try new balls for more consistency. I started playing Vice Drive balls, $20 a dozen and they have a nice soft feel, not extremely durable but probably won't be long before I lose it anyway! Don't feel much of a difference between those and the prov1s tho, they are soft and playable. I wonder how you will rank them! I'm about to find out!

@@LetsPlayThru yeah, I agree 100%, they aren't exactly top of the line, but a guy like me that is typically within 10 strokes of 100 one way or the other its hard to tell the difference between a $1.50 ball and a $4 ball, and they are finding the woods or the water just as often! Major thing is they don't feel like you are hitting a rock, they have a nice soft feel, and I've tried some of the vice pro models, and I think the $20 a dozen vice drive balls feel the best.

I would like to try the new half white/half yellow taylormade tour response though, haven't seen it on the shelves in my neck of the woods yet!

I wish Kirkland made colored balls, maybe one day

Srixon best selling ball here in South Africa. Half those balls tested not available here but I have tried a Kirkland....very good ball. Great review

Maxfli tour 3 piece ball is actually really good. Played it during a windy round and performed as good a a pro V1. Great deal, way better then the Kirkland ball.

The Maxfli tour and tourX balls are great. They are top tier in my book. Play as well as the ProV’s for me at a much cheaper price.

I've been loving the Maxfli balls, switched completely over to them. That's all I play now. Shouldn't be in the Meh spot at all. But to each their own

My favorite balls are Vice, Callaway, Bridgestone. bottom of the barrel for me is top flite, I actually don’t mind some of the noodles

Tp5 and tp5x deserve pure class category

Scrixon's are excellent balls. As are their irons. ZX4 irons you should try and review. AMAIZNG AMAZING irons.

@@fullsendfantasy a friend of mine bought the ZX4, can’t believe the difference in his game. I hit them Anna immediately loved them. Unfortunate to expensive for me. 😀

When you suck as bad as I do, there is no difference between Noodles and Pro V1s 😂

Got a 50% off deal on 4 dozen Srixon Z-star XVs and I think they are right up there with ProV 1X while not being as fussed about losing some

I have to strongly disagree with you on the Noodle. That's one of my favorite go to ball when I'm having a bad day on the course and loosing balls. I think Topflite has to be these worst balls by far. Love the Kirkland pic thou! Man I have been playing those all this year and just really impressed with the spin and for a buck a ball. Surprised that Mizuno didn't make the list . Great video Gabe!

The Maxfli Tour Balls are rated very favorable which ball are you evaluating
