Was I playing the WRONG Ball the whole time? My Titleist Golf Ball Fitting

[@oli2584]

It’s funny as a low handicap golfer (5) and having been off scratch in my younger days I’ve never given much focus to the ball (granted I would never play a ddh or molitor 🤣🤣) but I did find this interesting. More so with the wedges than the longer irons!!! Great video Surely we should now be expecting a breaking 80 video 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Oliver! Really appreciate the comment. I’ve been thinking about a break 80 actually but think 85 is probably more realistic hahaha

[@FOGGYFOO]

I find Pro V1s make a nicer plop sound when they go in the water. You just don't get that with a slazenger.

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Hahaha that made me laugh

[@randelldanner8588]

At the price of prov1s that plop sound better be in stereo surround sound.

Thanks Andrew, very kind

First off - as always enjoy the content!! Have to comment that in this case, the balls evaluated are all great balls but are really a better fit for a lower handicapper as balls at a lower price point that have decent feel around the green is all that is needed for mid to high handicappers, and hey this game is already expensive enough! One thing I do every so often is play 18 holes, using 6 different balls, 3 holes each. That way I can narrow down what is working well for me and I'll go with that ball.

[@Cesar-Avila]

I’m not gunna tell anyone how to spend their money. But also there was a case done that higher handicappers actually can shave more strokes off of 18 holes compared to scratch and single handicap golfers

[@droylsdenblue]

Thank god for that, I’ve just bought a loyalty box of 48 prov1x balls, I’ve noticed I can be more aggressive when playing into greens as I get more check using these balls. 18 handicapper.

[@GaryTurpie]

I was the type of golfer who had the definition of a mix match of golf balls in my bag but I decided to clear out and only have a few brands. After several rounds of testing I have settled on the TaylorMade TP5 range (with preference of the TP5 pix), VICE pro plus and Srixon AD333 when my swing doesn't feel great

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Glad you've found one that works for you :)

[@kexith]

Regardless of whether you want to get fitted for a ball, the advice of using the same ball makes sense to me and it's what i do. I've no idea if it's the "best" ball for me but I can learn how it behaves and work with that.

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Keith!

Great video, interesting how much the golf ball can improve someone’s game!

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks very much! I was genuinely surprised with how quickly it stopped on the green in comparison which is so much better for my game!

[@garfscarf]

Excellent again Jaz, very informative. I guessed right on your Twitter poll ha. Will we be seeing anymore break videos from you?

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Gareth, appreciate that! Some course vlogs on their way first and then the final (VERY belated) episode of the Break 90 will be up. Would you enjoy a Break 85 Series?

[@garfscarf]

@@TheJazzyGolfer excellent I look forward to watching them and certainly id be interested in a break 85 series too!

[@darrell3118]

Great insight Jazzy to something most should give a thought to, as their games could possibly benefit from a golf Ball fitting! Well done 👍👊🏼😎

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Absolutely!

[@paulglindon3116]

This was a great video and you are right I have never heard of a golf ball fitting but after watching this it’s kind of obvious and important. 😀

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@andrewjohnston5942]

Played ProV1 for years. Changed recently to chrome soft. Never had a fitting, always made choice on what feels right. I would need to try more than one manufacturers ball at same fitting. Interesting video though, might give it a try

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Andrew, glad it's made you consider a ball fitting. Totally understand what you're saying about 'feel' as this decision was definitely based a lot on how the golf ball felt off the club face.

[@mikespens6069]

Look forward to watching this 👍

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Brilliant, let me know what you think when you've finished watching :)

[@TheSpaniel1]

Great video Jazzy, definitely food for thought👍🏻

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Tony!

[@randelldanner8588]

I've been playing Wilson duo soft since they came out. For me about the same feel as a proV at more than half the cost.

[@lokidecat]

Kinda surprised you didn't try (or show you tried) the TourSoft or TourSpeed and such. I gotta tell you, some of those mid-range balls from them do really good jobs and don't cost $50/dozen... seems like you got sold on the most expensive ball they make! But I agree, the ball fitting is definitely a good idea.. and if nothing else, staying consistent when you play. Pick one and stick with it!

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Loki, appreciate the feedback!

[@amungo9772]

I'd love to try this one day. I select on a medium price ball at the minute. Great information Jazzy 👋😁👍

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thank you, so glad you enjoyed it!

[@bc3713]

Haha we both chose the same ball!! love your content and looking forward to more

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks very much!

[@jpcoll2011]

At the cost of those balls per sleeve, I will stick to the Srixons. If I feel like I might loose one in the drink, no problems.

[@lukpri84]

As much as I'd love to get a ball fitting, and would probably use a Pro v1 or Pro v1x, the main benefactor for me (as a lot of golfers would be) is cost. Some rounds could cost me £12 in golf balls haha.

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thank you for the comment, appreciate your thoughts :)

[@love42productions17]

Anyone saying Titlest was “just trying to sell balls” and “why didn’t they give her a Trufeel?”Yall, Those balls are terrible. Why, because they don’t have Urethane covers. No one who is serious about scoring, even if an 80s or low 90’s player, should play a non-urethane golf ball. Non-urethane balls don’t hold greens and you can’t stop them with green side chips when needed. You don’t have to play the premiums like Pro V1/x, AVX, or TP5/x or chromesoft/ x. Cheaper urethane balls like Srixon Q-StarTour, or Taylormade’s Tour Response are just as good and many times better for mid handicappers because of their low compression (low compression like AVX without the price point). Some might say, “I just played 18 and shot ______ with a trufeel” (or any other non urethane ball), or say that their ball spins when they need it to. Ok, well keep playing that ball and when you short side yourself and hit a perfect chip that runs off the green…. think of me.

[@nsttig777]

Fun and informative video as always. Sun shining and Jazzy is looking great, you can see massive difference in your swing each time I watch. Keep up the great work.

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Mat, appreciate that! Working on my swing as much as I can :)

[@GolfingMalky]

Excellent vlog Jazzy - have you had media training? Your to-camera takes are very natural. I called it in Instagram so well done me - hope you have great success with the new ball Cheers

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Malcolm. Funnily enough I’ve had ZERO media training haha but appreciate the kind words

[@pauldaly6484]

Interesting as Pro v1x is the harder ball not softer. Would you change if TP5/X or Callaway Chrome soft worked better for you?

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

I’d say that ‘feel’ is probably quite a personal thing so what feels like a softer golf ball to one person might not to the other. I’m a Titleist ambassador so wouldn’t be playing any other brands :)

[@alankaye5501]

Why didn't you look at the rest of the titleist ball range. Only the premium???

[@AJ-xo9uw]

I also use prov1x but I find it harder than the standard prov1 at impact, I guess we all have a different feel, great vid, I learnt a lot 👍🔥⛳

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

I thought I might feel the same but was actually the opposite! As you said, amazing the difference ‘feel’ can make from person to person

[@AJ-xo9uw]

I'm going to try the original prov again after seeing how much lower it went for you, I had no idea there could be a height difference between it and the "X" 🤷

[@harryhorse1593]

Did you use this ball for your club fitting?

[@glennpaulsson2366]

you are as brilliant as usual🏌️‍♀️🏌️‍♀️

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks Glenn, very kind!

[@johnwhiskin5740]

I totally like the idea of a ball fitting., having had one in the past. However how can it be a truly comprehensive fitting to find out which Titleist ball best suits a player when not all of their balls were made available. If the guy suggests that you need the softer urethane cover to get that required control, which the firmer ionomer covers don’t give, then why do they manufacture other balls which by the fitter’s comments that control would not exist.

[@davidballard9781]

I’ve heard about this ball fitting my only concern that this is all about titleist balls and not other makes of balls so my question would be could you only find titleist rather than other makes to have a ball fitting with

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Hey David, I'm a Titleist ambassador hence why this feature is on Titleist balls however the principles about what you need to bring, not to be nervous and how it all works are applicable to other brands ball fittings :)

[@davidballard9781]

@@TheJazzyGolfer ok cool it’s an interesting concept anyway but thanks for letting me know

[@colinwallace2085]

Jazzy it was interesting to see the process but it would have been better to see the range rather than just the premium balls, the reason, I can't justify paying £15 more for the pro v range then the Tour Speed/Soft that I play and I honestly prefer these two over the pro v1 I have hit. Good luck with your choice👍🥰

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks for taking the time to write this Colin, appreciate the feedback and the honesty!

[@seanpeacock5595]

If you don’t need spin control around the green by all means go cheaper.

[@500VulcanRider]

I like this BUT and not to just pick on them as this was a Titleist location, there are so many good golf balls made today, why not try others as well. Callaway, Bridgestone and even Taylormade all make good balls.

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

Thanks for the feedback. Totally understand where you're coming from. I'm a Titleist ambassador so I'm talking through the generic process and benefits of getting fitted (which are applicable to tall) but am personally getting fitted into Titleist clubs. Hope that helps! :)

[@ashleywalls4097]

So I go get a ball fitting to find out which ball I can hit best into the lake.... got it.

[@TheJazzyGolfer]

hahah! That made me laugh

[@AngelaM7402]

Get the color balls….you can see them better in the lake 😊

[@todddrayton9354]

Why didn't they fit you for the tour soft, or tour speed or true feel, all of those choices would be a much better ball for a beginner golfer than a pro-v.

She only tested premium balls, there was no price difference

[@daftbambam]

@@TheJazzyGolfer sorry that was kind of my point. It was not a true ball fit as the only ones tested were the PROV1 range. Where was the insight as to the suitability of cheaper balls in their range to your current skill level? As someone, like you, learning the game using a PROV1 (or similar) might provide a boost to my game but is it worth the expense? Sorry, but it looked more like a PROV1 advert.
