Speaking of balls, that Titleist ad with "Won't Get Fooled Again"...

Makes me want to go grab my driver, run out to the back yard and tee one up and just knock the piss out of it.

Hard to believe that the ProV1 has been around that long.
I still remember playing the Titleist Balata ball

Seaming the that first intersection was legit

I remember the first time I hit one. I had found it on the course. Prior to that I was constantly debating and going back-and-forth between wound balls for spin and things like precept that flew so nicely.
I have found this one on the course, dropped it on the fairway and hit a six iron to the green. It flew like the solid balls. Next hole I had a little pitch shot that spun like a bottle. It was like a magic potion.

What followed, Prestige or maybe it was Tour Prestige? I recall saving pennies to drop $12.50 per sleeve more than a few times for those and Pro Vs back in the day.

Titleist Professional — came out around 1994.
ProV1 was closer to 2000 or 2001.

Team Titleist Tour Balata
That was nearly 4 decades ago.
When I got back into golf, an assistant pro gave a sleeve of brand new pro v1s to me….i remember that round like it was yesterday.

I miss my balata balls. I could still rip one backwards now with one.
Pros today would probably back up 4 irons

I was playing the Golden Nugget a few years ago and I found a Slazenger Balata on the course.
“Wait a minute… these haven't been made for decades prior to this course being opened”

Right about the time I turned professional. I remember being at Sea Island with Davis Love III testing the Professional before he put them into play on tour.
