It was a close battle between the Pro-V1 and the newer version of the AVX balls. The extra length of the AVX won me over. That is, the AVX is almost as good as the Pro-V1 in the short game but the AVX is 5 to 8 yards longer off the driver and I a little straighter.
The only thing I notice is the lack of players of the AVX. When I do run into a fellow AVX'er we usually give each other a wink or sign because we know a secret. That the AVX is a worthy brother of the two Pro-V's and is not a gimmick distance ball.
Anybody else using this ball?
