So, used to love the Calloway Hex Chrome. When they disappeared went the Srixon Z-XV. Liked it a lot.
Tried the Calloway Chrome Soft...not a fan.
Brand New Srixons Z-XV arrived from Golfbox night before the Albany Classic. 2 Rounds later....yeh....really happy with that thing. Was swinging like a dog but distance was there on both drive and irons. Minimal movement in the air from both, but some nice spin in close but not over the top. Good short game response...pretty happy to be honest.
Got a box each of the new TM TP5 and TP5x. Played a few holes, not sure which i prefer but they seem very good. I was absolutely chopping it so it was hard to tell
Volvik Vista iV - scored 6 sleeves as part of a corporate day, not my cup of tea, feels clicky, spins flat and wears quickly
Will be my ball for the next month - that is unless someone wants to make me an offer
They are effectively KDM - as one of our international suppliers brought them over with their logo on it (Bioxolon)
Played the tp5 over the weekend pretty underwhelming or over hyped either way
Will still play them till I lose the doz about 9 holes worth
Then back to the b330s
Driver- Slazenger Bruce Devlin 1 1/2
Fwy Wood - PGF Kel NagleIrons - 2-PW Keith Knox R700
Wedges - Wilson Jerry Pate
Putter - Bulls Eye Copy
Bridgestone B330S
And I changed before they signed Tiger,so really Tiger is using my ball,not the other way around.
So it was your ball that caused Tiger's back spasms, because he didn't have them before he used your ball. And now, sadly, he isn't using your ball at all.
I used a Wilson Duo U in my last comp round and I liked it. I then used it alongside a two round old Pro V in my last 9 hole practice round and there wasn't much difference between the two. Assuming I find another Duo U somewhere, I'll put it in play again.

I recently tried the B330s after forgetting to pack TM TPx into my bag so I had to buy a sleeve from the proshop for my credit.
Postives:
I thought the B330s felt really nice with the putter and the cover was very durable.
Ball flight and performance wise are on par with TM TPx.
Negatives:
They felt quite firm off the driver and irons, almost to the point it was felt like rock.
Summary:
Good ball but I'm going back to the TPx cos I prefer the look and feel and I still have 6 dozen!!!
I am quite enjoying the Chrome Soft Truvis balls at the moment.
In the bag
Taylormade Stealth 2 9.0 - AD DI 7X, Taylormade Sim 5 wood - AD DI 8X, P790 2/5-GW S300 AMT, Taylormade Hi Toe 53/14, 57/14, 60/10, Taylormade Spider, Taylormade 2018 staff bag
Was given a sleeve of these last week. I love them. Great sound of the face of the driver, nice feel off the putter. I am a 20 handicap, and they copped a beating... Trees, rough, bunkers... Didn mark up or gougeT all.
They are supposed to give you "10 more yards' than normal, unsure about this, lol, but overall. Great ball. Main competitor for the ProV 1.
Will definitely make these my new choice of ball.
I've broken out a few a TaylorMade Lethals from my stash recently.
That was a very good ball.
Bunting it around today with a 2016 TPx that I found somewhere at Settler's Run. Might have to load up on a few dozen of these...very good all around ball
Bought and lost bridgy 330RX during VicChamps, really like them
I dare say a better ball than the TP5, the TPX feels better and the spin is a lot more predictable on short irons.
I had a fair bit of trouble stopping the tp5 where the tpx would jump and stop when the tp5 ran on a fair bit.
The lethal was a fair jump from its predecessor just as the two years worth of tp's were a jump up from the lethal, the tp5 isn't a jump up at all.

Got hold of the new Srixon Z-XV.....yeh I think I will keep it. Good control around the greens, low spin off the driver. Irons stick and stop.
Liking them so far.
Put the Chrome SoftX in play today. My new favourite ball.
Not quite as soft as the original Chrome Soft but definitely softer than ProV and TP's.
Awesome off the irons, great feel, flight and plenty of check. Held its line in cross wind, cut through head wind.
Short game performance was awesome with great soft feel and plenty of spin, probably more than ProV.
Driver was good, low spin from what I saw. Plenty of run and a good flight for me.
Cover still looks close to AAA after 9 so that's another plus.
Got some of the Snell balls the other day. Will report back after Saturday.

I got a sleeve of Tour Performance S from Forte golf before, it says what is does on the website but the price is not good for me.
They have a referral program recently, have anyone used it before? Did anyone get a discount? Thanks mate ~

Used the Chrome Soft X to day and really liked it, like Bushy said, checked up really well and was long...for me anyway...rolled off the putter nicely
