I had a chance to play this ball and I was really impressed. I try to play the previous left dash primarily but had recently been fit into the X, so I was curious how this bal would feel.

I was a bit rusty, but when I made solid contact, I really liked how the ball felt off the club face. It felt very crisp and reactive. I’m not somebody that is looking for a lot of movement when the ball hits the green, I prefer the ball to stop where it lands, so I was happy to see this ball do that.

Overall, the ball felt firm, but not hard, and had a lower trajectory than the X does for me. I wasn’t getting much rollout due to the ground softness, but the lower ball flight says I should expect a bit more rollout with firmer conditions.

For chipping and pitching, the ball reacted well on the greens and I didn’t get any surprise results. When I made good contact, the ball did exactly what I expected. On the greens, the ball still feels like it has a premium cover and makes a rewarding sound off the putter.

Overall I was very pleased with the ball. The previous generation would occasionally give me low spin monsters that I didn’t always expect, but I didn’t get any of those so far with this one. Consistency has improved and the ball still feels great. Looking forward to playing this ball in 2026.
