Titleist, along with FootJoy and Cobra, is one of the golf brands under Acushnet Company. The parent company is a leading force in the market when it comes to producing and marketing golf balls. Titleist golf balls can be found in golf pro shops, as well as sporting goods stores all over the world.
Pro V1
One of the most-popular models of golf balls produced by Titleist, the Pro V1 makes use of three-piece technology. As a result, the core of the ball is solid and made out of polybutadiene, a synthetic rubber. Titleist markets the V1 as a way to improve performance by increasing distance and durability. A number of those who have tried this particular model report an increase in spin, which increases its trajectory. It is also more durable than other golf balls on the market because of its composition. However, the downside of the V1 is that it is more expensive than other kinds.
ProV1x
What sets the ProV1 apart from other Titleist models is that it has a four-piece dual core construction designed to increase its flight distance. The result is a more streamlined flight movement of the ball and a higher trajectory. When coupled with a good swing speed, the ProV1 can reach greater distances. One disadvantage of this particular model is that it does not provide as much spin as its counterparts. Also, consumers have reported that it is easily scratched when it comes in contact with some obstacles, such as trees.
NXT Tour
Designed for average to advanced golfers, the NXT Tour is made out of several layers of synthetic rubber and features a high number of surface dimples to add more distance to the ball flight. The NXT delivers what it promises when it comes to spin and distance. Also, the soft cover made out of Fusablend technology developed by Titleist makes it easy to hit. However, critics have pointed out that the NXT Tour is not as durable as other models in that it peels quite easily, which is a disadvantage, considering its high price.
NXT Extreme
The NXT Extreme knows no bounds in that players of all levels can easily use this model. Some distinguishing features are its soft compression and high-density core. In addition, the NXT Extreme has an increased number of dimples. Each ball has 392, to be exact. The result is a model that promises to deliver distance without sacrificing a soft feel when hit. Although the NXT Extreme does not have as much spin, it is still a ball that performs well around the greens.
DT Carry
The DT Carry model is specifically made to adjust the trajectory and distance of the ball to cater to specific needs. It is ideal for players who need more distance and height in their shots. The cover is made out of solid polybutadiene and is covered with Surlyn, developed specifically by Titleist. What is remarkable about this particular model is that it gives golfers the opportunity to hit their balls higher and longer.
