Perks and Particulars of the 2015 Titleist Pro V1 & Pro V1x

Prov1-prov1x-image

The new 2015 Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x models officially hit retail stores on Jan. 30 and since then, have been garnering plenty of praise from professional players and industry publications for their innovative features—collectively designed for an overall softer feel and more spin around the greens than earlier generations.
We put the top-selling, pro-favorite balls to the test and are happy to report that both 2015 models uphold the exceptionally high-quality standard that the Titleist brand has become synonymous with over its 83-year reign.

Equally impressive in terms of overall superiority, the 2015 Pro V1 and V1x golf balls vary significantly in terms of design, technology and core attributes—just as each 2015 model boasts considerable distinguishing features when compared to their respective 2013 and 2011 predecessors.

At a Glance: The 2015 Pro V1 and Pro V1x

Both the Pro V1 and Pro V1x 2015 models feature an innovative, patented thermoset urethane elastomer cover—designed for long-lasting durability and improved short game performance—as well as an ionomeric casing layer. The control, sound and feel of the Pro V1 and Pro V1x 2015 golf balls give players a noticeable sense of confidence on each approach—while maintaining excellent distance with a softer cover.

In a side-by-side comparison, the Pro V1 2015 has a generally softer feel than the V1x model and also penetrates a lower launch for more roll and long game spin. The Pro V1 ball is comprised of a unique three-piece, multi-component technology with a very soft compression ZG process core and a spherically tiled 352 tetrahedral dimple design.

The Pro V1x 2015 has a firmer feel and effectively penetrates a higher launch and more long game spin than the V1 model. The Pro V1x ball is comprised of a distinctive four-piece, multi-component technology with a ZG process dual core and a spherically tiled 328 tetrahedral dimple design.

In terms of appearance: both the Pro V1 and Pro V1x 2015 models are distinguished by a gray-colored arrow marking with a split down the middle.

Waxing Poetic About The Masters

So, The Masters is finally here. Does it get any better? I’ve never been to Augusta National and it’s something I hope to do at some point. I covered horse racing as a journalist for 10 years and regularly attended the Kentucky Derby. I can honestly say that it never got dull. Seeing Churchill Downs and the Twin Spires gave me a true understanding of a true sports landmark. I’m sure it’s the same with Augusta National. I can only imagine what the course looks like. I’m told the wonderful scenes you see on TV do not really do it justice, and that in person, the undulations of the lush greens, the azaleas in full bloom, Amen Corner and the various bridges named after immortals of the game are collective works of art.

Gary Woodland's Victory Is A Story For The Ages

Perspective is a sobering thing when it comes to health. Gary Woodland (Titleist Pro V1) made us all appreciate that we are nothing without our health, while also proving that will is sometimes more powerful than the mind in terms of everyday living. In going public recently with The Golf Channel’s Rex Hoggard about his battle with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Woodland allowed us a peek into his private world since his brain surgery in September 2023.

Golf Gods Kind To Fitzpatrick But Cruel To Snedeker

The golf gods giveth and taketh. How else can you explain the last two PGA tournaments. Matt Fitzpatrick (Titleist Pro V1x) wins the Valspar Championship by one stroke after losing the Players Championship seven days before by one stroke. Fitzpatrick was gracious in defeat, so perhaps he was rewarded for his good sportsmanship.
