Mike, Thanks for including me in your test group. I tried the balls marked "test" on them last Sunday. My usual ball is ProV1x and I have a relatively high ball flight with both driver and irons. The new ball had a very durable finish and held up well. It felt a bit harder off the driver and irons than PV1, but not as hard as an NXT (which I don't care for). The ball had a good feel off the putter face. Not as soft as PV, but plenty soft to provide good feel. I would buy this ball if it's at cheaper price point than PV, but would not change from PV if it's at the same price point.
