    Titleist ProV1/ProV1x trial offer

    Has anyone else seen the offer in their local pro shop to trial the new Pro V1/Pro V1x?

    All you need to do is hand in 2 brand new "premium" balls and get 2 Pro V1's in return.

    Now the interesting part... They are defining "premium" as balls which are sold in packs of 12.

    This to me says you can hand in 2 maxfli noodles (12 pack for £9 at nevada bobs) and get 2 Pro v1's in return.

    Shirley I'm missing something?

    First I've heard of this one - it's certainly not being advertised by my local pro. Enquiries will be made however!

    I recently purchased a dozen for £35 ------ I'm almost frightened to take them out of the box at that price!

    Did they - I need to take a closer look in there
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    Noticed it on Friday. I have about 5 dozen of the now "old" PROV1's so I will be doing nothing until they are all golfed to death.

    Was I right then that you can take in 2 Noodles or 2 Srixons from a £5.50 sleeve of 3?

    Is the only stipulation that the balls need to be sold in packs of 12 to be defined as "Premium".

    What is supposed to be so great about these new balls? I hadn't heard of them until this thread.

    Didn't read the detail Houchy. I assumed the premium bit was older Pro V's or Callaway HX's in a straight swap. Not much help I know but there you go.

    Are Harburn taking part in this deal? I was up in the pro shop the other day and Stephen isn't even stocking any Titleist's at all just now

    Dunno Scott. He has a whole lot of new Cobra clubs in so he must still be dealing with Titleist. Maybe eveyone is using Top Flights this year.

    I do know Stuart Boyle got 2 dozen for modelling in the Titleist fitting centre at Kingsacre Poster. There is one on Stephens door and probably most pro shops around the country as it's a national poster.
    Edit - Ha Ha he is also on the Titleist website. I was looking for the details on the offer and there he is int he fitting centre page.

    Houchy no details on the website I'm afraid.

    Stuart is one of the best golfers I've played with I reckon, hilarious hitting what I'd consider to be a good shot for my ability...and he's pissed off with it

    It definately wasn't a very inspiring selection of balls in the pro shop when I was in...I did like the shiny new Cobra stuff though Also...there's a new competition going on on the shop, on the putting mat...10 in a row to beat Euan Rennie...winner gets a dozen balls or something...I know where I'm gonna be spending quiet times behind the bar

    I won't need to worry about that. Hit buffer (CSS 72) on Wednesday with an 81 less 8 for a 73 in those condidtions you would think was acceptable. Not a chance. Take 5 shots off for the 5 three putts and it would have been acceptable. 3 of them were from less than 15ft. Hitting the ball well but cannae get it in the hole. I hate this game.

    It hapens to the pro's aswell mate.

    In the China open yesterday, one of the groups took 12 putts between them on their final green. Brier took 3 putts, Jaidee took 4 (3 of them from 6 foot) and the other guy took 5 putts.

    There's always hope.
