TAYLORMADE TP5 & TP5x 2024 BALL REVIEW! Includes Comparison vs. Titleist Pro V1!

[@RichardMau-jn5ci]

Aloha from Hawaii Luke! As usual another fantastic review. Thank you for all your amazing content. Always grateful

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi Richard! Thank you so much for watching and for your kind comment! I must admit it still blows my mind that people on the opposite side of the world watch and enjoy my content! Thank you!

[@patrickbehan3126]

Thank you, Luke, for another excellent review. I was hoping that you would review the TaylorMade premium balls and your comparing them to the Pro V1 was a great idea. I will probably buy a box of the TP5X since you found that this version is indeed a half club longer than the previous one. May you have a great rest of your summer!

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi Patrick! No problem at all! I was REALLY impressed with how soft the balls felt (vs other premium balls with similar compressions!) through the bag too! I genuinely could see me gaming one of these in the near future - especially with the 4 for 3 offers you can get from time to time! All the best! 👍🏼

Playing the TM Tour Response Stripe ball good distance! TP’s look good! Thanks Luke

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi Richard! You guys know I love the Tour Response and the fact TaylorMade now, on their website, bring it into their conversations with TP5/TP5x in ball fitting discussions shows how great it is! Really impressed with these too and think TaylorMade are making great golf balls these days! 👍🏼

Thanks for the review Luke.

[@weekendtourpro]

No worries Petro! Thanks for watching! 👍🏼

[@jsnyds22]

Just discovered you, great review!! I use the prov1 left dash pretty exclusively - have you ever compared this to say a TP5x?

[@weekendtourpro]

Hey! Thanks for watching! Sadly I’ve not got round to doing any Left Dash testing yet but I need to! Will get it added to the list!

playing with my dad the other day - a par 3. we both landed on the green with the first shot. we then let a single player tee off and play through. He also hit the green in one.....unbeknownst to me, he accidentally played and took my ball and went on to the next hole. He left his ball which was a TP5. The next hole, I crushed a 300 yard drive with it off the tee. I didn't realize until playing today how well I have been playing and hitting with that ball. Then on the back nine, I tried to get fancy with a dumb shot and launched it into the water. Did not play well the rest of the round. I'm going out tomorrow to bite the bullet and buy a box.The difference in distance was significant (for me).

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi Jabman549! Thanks for watching my video and more importantly for sharing your own experiences with the TP5! I hope you get on just as good with them when you buy the box! All the best! 👍🏼

When the greens are slower i switch to a TP5X from a speed soft ink… that’s because it pops off the putter face … it has great distance and spin around the green … however the urethane cover is pretty cut up after just one round … that might be because i’m hitting it 85 to 90 times though!! 😂 sometimes they have them on offer over here in the USA at Dicks sporting goods ($40 / dozen) and at this price they are a really good buy 👍👍

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi everyoneknowsadave3580! Thanks for sharing your experiences with the TM golf balls! I think a lot of urethane cover golf balls suffer the same fate regarding durability sadly! I’m also not sure if it’s in golf manufacturers interests to improve it either! Thanks for watching another video! 👍🏼

[@TobyScheckter-s8q]

Please do prov1 left dash review

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi Toby! Have got it on the list and will try to get round to it ASAP! Thanks for watching and for your request!

[@Sevenh1101]

Great video, how is the durability?

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi Steve! I’ve done a bit of testing with them on durability and I’m not noticing anything better or worse than Pro v1. Typical urethane cover that does scuff if you catch something that isn’t grass but also very easy to see you through a couple of rounds if you keep it in play! Thanks for watching! 👍🏼

[@petekenny3774]

Used the TPs a few years back never really liked them luke🤷..hit a speed soft ink as a provisional other week ..guess what straight down the middle with roll out 270😂😂😂😂 always 2nd ball golf is amazing

[@weekendtourpro]

Haha love that Pete! I keep asking people what they think there handicap would be if they could play a 2 ball scramble! Always easy second time round! What did you think to the Speedsoft Ink???

[@petekenny3774]

@@weekendtourpro Luke do you know what ...it felt soft as anything of the driver face mate 🤷 I didn't hit an iron as swapped balls immediately unfortunately the colourways are not for me 🤷 but if anyone gives them a go report back as they seem pretty decent and reasonable price ...Luke im gonna try some vice balls next intrigued by them especially the new vice pro air ...can you test them mate vice pro vice pro+ and vice air 👍👍

[@wayne9357]

Weird results with the driver. Completely contradictory to what TaylorMade says about each ball. The x should spin less and go further with the driver. Thanks for the review

[@weekendtourpro]

Hi Wayne! Thanks for watching and for your comment! Obviously my video is just one review/test so I might be the outlier but I do hit a lot of shots back to back so that’s the results I saw! Hope it helped! 👍🏼

[@petekenny3774]

Luke...what ball do you actually play ?? 😂 You test so many must be confusing 😂

[@weekendtourpro]

Honestly Peter, it’s the only negative to running the channel is I can get tempted by everything ‘good’ that I test! So currently I’m still on the Bridgestone Tour B RX except in peak summer like now when I’m using some Pro V1’s (family often buy me them for birthdays and Christmas etc!). I have done some on course testing of a golf ball which I LOVED and will be filming the review of next week and capturing the TrackMan data. If the data is good then that is highly likely to end up in the bag… I’m also VERY tempted by the TP5 if you can get them on a 4 for 3 type deal and I’m definitely considering switching to a winter/summer ball and will be trying some winter testing with Srixon AD333/Q Star. So it’s basically does the Bridgestone remain or does it become Srixon AD333 then Pro V1, TP5 or the mystery ball that will be revealed in a week or two! 👍🏼

[@petekenny3774]

I've got a dozen BRX and AVX to try I tend to stick same.ball through winter as my home course is dry mate 👍
