    2025 White Box prototype testing is officially underway!

    If you are unfamiliar with the White Box testing program, we had the Titleist Golf Ball R&D team answer the most frequently asked questions here: https://www.titleist.com/learning-lab/titleist-expertise/25-pro-v1-white-box-testing

    We have had thousands of responses to the R&D survey, but for those of you who received White Box protos in the mail or at a Team Titleist event, it’s time to share your thoughts with the rest of the community.

    What performance characteristics have you been impressed with while testing the 2025 prototype Pro V1 and/or Pro V1x?

    *Please note: we want to keep this thread focused on prototype feedback. All replies not speaking to prototype golf ball performance will be moved or removed for the benefit of the Team Titleist community.

    Thank you for your feedback in advance and happy testing!

    The white box prototypes are the V and the X. While the left dash would be rated as a 2019 version, it doesn’t appear to be announced at the Shriner’s this week or known in advance to be part of the PGA show announcements in January.
    I might even hazard a guess if it wasn’t for marketing against the competition, the V and the X releases might not be on a biannual cycle, either. As is, the left dash fills a niche - how much do the pros using it want or need a change?

    I have had a chance to test the new X version. It took me all of 4 holes to get used to the ball and notice a lot of good changes to it. The ball launches higher for me than the 2023 version yet holds it line really well. I noticed the ball is softer feeling through the bag as well. Not as loud off a putter.

    Perhaps a little more distance but not much, I was still hitting the same clubs for the yardages but with a higher ball flight the angle of decent was much steeper coming into greens. This allowed me to be a little more aggressive knowing I was not going to get as much release from the ball than the 23 version.

    I have no idea how Titleist keeps making a better ball, but this is by far the best ball I have played and works so well for my game.

    I have not tested the V as of yet given I am a X player but will at some point.

    I've been playing the black 25 Prototype for about 3 weeks and the biggest difference I've noticed between the prior generation is the cover durability. I can easily get a few rounds with one ball with no visible changes to the cover as long as I can keep it away from a cart path or tree trunk

    As for its performance off the tee and around the greens, I didn't notice any huge changes and I appreciated that.
