    Hi guys, thanks for the reviews. Comments in the main all seem positive

    Played a round last night with them. I agree with everything said above. I did feel like I flew everything a few yards longer than with x’s. Was not a good night off the tee for me (I get in a funk with the hooks from time to time) so I look forward to seeing how they perform there. Absolutely loved the ball flight with irons and wedges though! Excited to continue testing!
  3. I used it today and found it to pretty good. It felt like a two or three piece golf ball. It was fairly soft off the putter, iron shots had a click sound to it, wasn’t dense sounding, which I prefer. It lacked a bit of feel off the driver and three wood.

    I did notice that the ball spun properly, enough to hit the numbers but not excessive where the ball is spinning backwards 20 feet.

    The trajectory was a bit higher than the ProV1, closer to ProV1x flight, but I was able to flight it when I wanted.

    I think it’s a ball that will sit between the AVX line and True line of balls.

    I’m interested to see if the ball grows on me as I play more rounds with it. Initial reaction is the ball is “fair”.

    Played 18 hole round with EXP-01 today. Initial thoughts as follows:

    Not quite as durable as ProV1x or V1 (But did play same ball full 18 holes)
    Driver distance not quite as good as V1 or V1x
    Less spin on long clubs, straighter flying ball off driver
    Nice control & distance on mid iron shots
    Less green side spin compared to V1x
    Ball putts very well
    Seems a little on soft side, maybe too soft

    Overall, not quite as good as V1 or V1x (but a very good ball).
    Need to play a couple more rounds to confirm/update above initial thoughts
    & give complete evaluation.



  5. If that's the case this could be a gamer. Sounds almost spot on what I found out of the Bridgestone B XR. Wanted something that has a higher flight and lower spin but doesn't feel like a rock. The Bridgestone ball provided that in spades. Testing the left dash right now and it has those characteristics but is extremely hard/high compression. Going to have to try and get my hands on a dozen.

    Nice feel playing this new R&D Ball! Got my 2 dozen the other day off Titleist.com. Distance was not lacking.
    Looking at EBAY and there is people selling these for 60$ and up. Shameful!!

    I've played 6 rounds with them and the best way to describe the ball....It's an AVX with a Tour Soft cover.
  8. Agree with this!

    Played a round with the EXP-01 yesterday. Course was a little soft due to watering and heavy dew, but I was able to play two balls the entire round. I played the EXP and V1x (my regular ball) and due to the softness of the greens all approaches and short chips & pitches seemed to play about the same. Off the driver the EXP played very similar to the V1x, but I got slightly more distance with the V1x and the EXP flew a little lower. I do like the overall feel of the EXP, especially when putting. It feels great off the putter face.
  10. Not sure if I missed it but where can I buy these balls? I saw them on the .com website but they don't ship to the UK. Please let me know i would love to try these out.
  11. Have not seen them yet in Canada, but I will be in Golftown today so maybe they have some now.

    Played 18 with them today. Great feel throughout the bag. To me it plays between the tour soft and AVX.

    I had similar thoughts
    Really like the ball flight and the feel around the greens
  16. I tried this ball for a hole because my friend got a sleeve from the team and wow what a pure ball I really want a sleeve of these to try now and can’t wait to get a box! Also really excited about the trufeels
  17. Played a couple 9 hole rounds with them over the weekend. Distance was longer than ProV1 and my guess is comparable to AVX. Feel was less clicky than AVX but not as soft as ProV1. Around the greens perhaps a little more spin than AVX but not enough for my liking. Durability was excellent and I thought comparable to ProV1. I think EXP is a fine ball and an improvement over the AVX. For me I just keep coming back to ProV1, which certainly isn't a bad thing.

    Played 18 holes and found it to be a great performer. Good distance and trajectory off the driver, softer feel than AVX, and can manage changes in trajectory through the rest of the bag. Great around the green. A keeper.
  19. I just made the purchase. I'll let you know! I'm optimistic.

    I played exp 01 today and while I really enjoyed the feel and.distance, my thoughts are this is the NXT tour ball reborn.

    Played these the last 2 round. Excellent distance even in cooler weather here in LI. Good feel off driver and irons and roll out in fairways. Great feel off the putter and roll on greens.
