Thanks for the balls and the opportunity to test these. The ball is to the same usual high standards that Titleist have produced over the years. My first iron shot was a 150 yard bunker shot which I got a bit thin, golf ball didn't mark at all. On and around the greens the ball felt pretty much the same, perhaps ever so slightly more feel, but minimal. Not convinced it went any further but was definitely more durable without compromising anything else.
